SALMON WITH SAUTéED MUSHROOMS, SHALLOTS AND FRESH HERBS
You'll never want to cook salmon any other way after you make this. It steams above a pan of water in a low oven, resulting in a very moist piece of fish. The mushrooms are wonderful on top or on the side.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 300ºF. Cover a baking sheet with foil and lightly oil the foil. Place the salmon on top. Season with salt and pepper. Fill a roasting pan with boiling water and place it on the oven floor.
- Place the salmon in the oven and bake until the fish flakes and white bubbles of protein appear on the surface, 10 to 20 minutes, depending on the size of the fillets. Remove from the heat.
- Meanwhile, cook the mushrooms. Heat a large, heavy frying pan over medium-high heat and add 1 tablespoon of the olive oil. When the oil is hot (you can feel the heat when you hold your hand above the pan), add the mushrooms and cook, stirring or tossing in the pan, for a few minutes, until they begin to soften and sweat. Add the remaining oil, turn the heat to medium, and add the shallots, garlic, and herbs. Stir together, add 1/2 teaspoon salt and freshly ground pepper to taste, and cook, stirring often, for another 1 to 2 minutes, until the shallots and garlic have softened and the mixture is fragrant. Add the wine and cook, stirring often and scraping the bottom of the pan, until the wine has just about evaporated. Taste and adjust seasonings. Remove from the heat.
- Serve the salmon with a spoonful of mushrooms on top or on the side.

BAKED SALMON IN PUFF PASTRY WITH CREMINI MUSHROOM DUXELLE RECIPE - (4.4/5)
Provided by Foodiewife
Number Of Ingredients 12
Steps:
- Duxelles: Rinse and thoroughly pat dry cremini mushrooms before using a food processor or sharp knife to finely mince. Melt butter in a sauté pan over medium heat. Add shallots and sauté until soft. Stir in cremini mushrooms and simmer for 7 to 10 minutes, stirring occasionally, allowing the mushrooms to cook down while their moisture evaporates. Add white wine, thyme and salt. Simmer for an additional 5 to 7 minutes. Remove from heat and stir in whipping cream. Use immediately or cover and refrigerate. Makes 1 cup. Note: I froze the remaining Duxelles, for a month. It thawed perfectly, and was delicious spread over puff pastry and rolled, sliced into pinwheels. Bake at 400°F for about 10 to 12 minutes. Elegant yet easy to prepare, salmon wellington makes a lovely entrée for a dinner party or evening in as the puff pastry parcels can be prepared and refrigerated for up to two hours before being baked. Wellington: Cut puff pastry into four equal 5-inch x 8-inch (13-centimeters x 20-centimeters) sheets. Approximate measurements are suitable. Spread 1/4 cup mushroom duxelle evenly onto each sheet of puff pastry, leaving a 1/2-inch (1 centimeter) margin at the edges. Place a salmon fillet in the center of each prepared pastry, seasoning each with a sprinkle of salt. Fold up edges in a lengthwise and press puff pastry together to seal a seam across the center of the salmon fillet. Flip pastry over so that seam is hidden and gently press the sides together to close. Note: I brushed an egg wash over each wellington, to give a lovely golden color to the pastry. Bake salmon wellington at 400°F (205°C) for 15 minutes. Lower heat to 325°F (165°C) and bake for an additional 15 to 20 minutes until puff-pastry is flaky and golden brown. If using previously frozen salmon, allow fillets to completely thaw before assembling the salmon puff-pastry. Note: These can also be frozen, and then baked for a little extra time. I also tested reheating one of these, after they were baked, in a conventional oven (do not microwave), and they turned out just fine!

GRILLED SALMON WITH CORN AND MUSHROOMS

Steps:
- Prepare the vegetables: Clean the mushrooms with a dry cloth, then cut off the stems (if using shiitakes) and cut into bite-sized pieces. Set aside. Peel the corn and remove the cornsilk. Then cut the kernels directly into a bowl, starting at the top of the husk and moving down.
- For the sauce: Preheat a dry skillet on high heat for 1 minute. While the pan is heating, prepare the tarragon by removing the leaves (save the stems for making stock), then finely chop. Trim the chives (save the ends for making stock), then finely chop. Set aside. Add oil to the heated skillet and add mushrooms. Season with salt and pepper and cook until lightly browned. Add the corn, followed by chicken stock or clam juice, and bring to a boil. Add butter while the sauce is boiling to emulsify and create a sauce. Season to taste with salt and pepper, then add the lemon juice. Add the herbs and set aside.
- Grill the salmon: Preheat grill on high heat with the lid on. Season salmon with salt and pepper and coat with oil on both sides. Scrape the grill clean and lightly swipe with an oiled rag. Place the fish on the grill, skin side down, and grill 2-3 minutes with the lid closed. Then use a large fork to flip and turn salmon 45 degrees to make cross hatching grill marks. (The salmon should not stick when it's ready to be flipped.) Cook 2-3 more minutes; salmon will be done when it's opaque in appearance and firm to the touch while translucent in the middle. Remove and set aside.
- Plate the dish: Divide the corn and butter sauce among 4 plates and top each with a piece of salmon. Spritz the salmon with lemon just before serving.

- Add some fresh herbs. Fresh herbs, such as thyme, rosemary, and parsley, will brighten up the flavor of the dish.
- Serve with a side of your favorite vegetables. Roasted vegetables, steamed broccoli, or a simple salad would all be great accompaniments to this dish.
