GRILLED SALMON CUBES WITH TAWNY PORT-TARRAGON SAUCE



Grilled Salmon Cubes with Tawny Port-Tarragon Sauce image

Provided by Food Network

Categories     appetizer

Time 2h15m

Yield 8 first course servings

Number Of Ingredients 9

3/4 pound salmon steak (1 1/4 inches thick)
Salt and pepper to taste
1/3 cup tawny port (as dry as possible)
1/4 cup firmly packed, fresh tarragon leaves (no stems)
1 large shallot, minced
1/4 cup beef stock
1 stick (1/2 cup) cold butter
1 teaspoon vegetable oil
Coarse salt for sprinkling the salmon

Steps:

  • Skin and bone the salmon steak. Cut into 8 cubes, each one approximately 1 1/4 inches square. Season well with salt and pepper. Place in a mixing bowl, and add the tawny port. Stir in the tarragon leaves, reserving a few for garnish. Cover and marinate in the refrigerator for 2 to 6 hours (try to marinate it as long as possible).
  • When ready to cook, prepare a charcoal fire. While the fire is getting hot, prepare the sauce. Remove the salmon cubes from the marinade and reserve cubes. Pour the marinade into a small saucepan. Add the shallot and beef stock. Bring to a boil over high heat, skimming off any foam that forms on the surface. Boil the liquid until it is reduced to a glaze. Reduce the heat to low, and begin whisking in the cold butter, 1 tablespoon at a time. (Make sure that the sauce doesn't "break". When all the butter is incorporated, you'll have a smooth, medium-thick, tan-colored sauce.) Strain it into a clean saucepan and keep warm over very low heat, stirring occasionally.
  • When the sauce is almost ready, grill the reserved salmon cubes: First dry them very well, then toss them with the vegetable oil to prevent sticking. Place them on the grill and cook, turning them with tongs, until charred on the outside, still rosy-pink on the inside, about 5 minutes. (Alternatively, you could place the oiled cubes under a preheated broiler, turning, until just done.)
  • Place each salmon cube on a small plate. Sprinkle with coarse salt. Drizzle each cube with a half teaspoon of the sauce (reserve the leftover sauce for another use). Sprinkle each cube with a few flecks of the reserved tarragon leaves, finely minced.

Yield Serves 6

Number Of Ingredients 14

For sauce
2 large bunches fresh tarragon (about 1 ounce total)
1 large bunch fresh chives (about 2/3 ounce)
1 large shallot
3/4 cup fresh flat-leafed parsley leaves
1 cup mayonnaise
1/3 cup rice vinegar (not seasoned)
2 teaspoons Dijon mustard
For fish
2 1/2 cups dry white wine
2 1/2 cups water
a 2 1/2- to 3-pound salmon fillet with skin
1 1/2 pounds pink fingerling or other new potatoes
Garnish: 1/2 pound cooked sugar snap peas, diagonally cut into thirds

Steps:

  • Make sauce
  • Pick enough tarragon leaves to measure 1/2 cup (do not pack). Chop enough chives to measure 1/3 cup. Coarsely chop shallot. In a food processor puree tarragon, chives, and shallot with remaining sauce ingredients until smooth and season with salt and pepper. Sauce may be made 1 day ahead and chilled, covered. Bring sauce to cool room temperature before serving.
  • Make Fish
  • In a deep 10-inch skillet bring wine and water to a simmer, covered. Cut salmon into 6 pieces and season with salt and pepper. Submerge 3 salmon pieces, skin sides down, in simmering liquid (add hot water if necessary to just cover salmon) and poach at a bare simmer, covered, 8 minutes, or until just cooked through. Transfer cooked salmon with a slotted spatula to a platter to cool and poach remaining salmon in same manner. When salmon is cool enough to handle, peel off skin and if desired with a sharp knife scrape off any dark meat. Salmon may be cooked 1 day ahead and chilled, covered. Bring salmon to cool room temperature before serving.
  • Assemble
  • Cut potatoes lengthwise into 1/8-inch-thick slices. In a steamer set over boiling water steam potatoes until just tender, 4 to 5 minutes. Spoon sauce onto 6 plates and arrange some potatoes in a circle, overlapping slightly, on top of sauce . Season potatoes with salt and arrange salmon on top of potatoes. Garnish salmon with peas.

Tips:

  • Choose the right salmon. Look for wild-caught salmon that is firm and has a bright, vibrant color. Avoid salmon that is slimy or has a dull color.
  • Cook the salmon to perfection. Salmon is best cooked to medium-rare or medium, so that it is still slightly pink in the center. Overcooked salmon will be dry and tough.
  • Make sure the sauce is creamy and flavorful. The creamy tarragon sauce is the perfect complement to grilled salmon. Be sure to use fresh tarragon and heavy cream for the best flavor.
  • Serve the salmon with roasted vegetables or a salad. Roasted vegetables or a salad are a great way to round out the meal. They will add color, flavor, and nutrients to your plate.

Conclusion:

Grilled salmon with creamy tarragon sauce is a delicious and healthy meal that is perfect for any occasion.
