CEDAR-PLANKED SALMON WITH LEMON-PEPPER RUB AND HORSERADISH-CHIVE SAUCE image

Categories     Fish

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

For the salmon
1 Tbs. grated lemon zest, minced
1 1/2tsp. chopped fresh thyme
1/2 tsp. granulated sugar
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
2 2-lb. boneless, skin-on salmon fillets (preferably wild and no longer than 15 inches), pin bones removed
2 Tbs. extra-virgin olive oil
For the horseradish-chive sauce
1/2 cup crème fraîche
3 Tbs. minced fresh chives
1 1/2 Tbs. prepared horseradish
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper

Steps:

  • Soak the cedar planks in water to cover for at least 1 hour. Drain the planks. Prepare the sauce In a small bowl, stir the crème fraîche, chives, and horseradish. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Refrigerate. Prepare the salmon In a small bowl, combine the lemon zest, thyme, sugar, 1 1/2 tsp. salt, and 1 Tbs. pepper. Rub the mixture together with your fingers until the zest is distributed throughout. Rub the salmon fillets on both sides with the olive oil and then set each fillet skin side down on a plank. Sprinkle the fillets with the lemon-pepper mixture, dividing it evenly. Gently rub the seasoning into the fillets. Let stand at room temperature while the grill heats. Cook the salmon Prepare a gas or charcoal grill fire for indirect cooking with high heat: On a gas grill, heat all burners on high; then turn off all but one burner just before cooking the salmon; on a charcoal grill, bank the coals to two opposite sides of the grill. Arrange the planks over the cooler part of the grill, positioning them so that the thickest part of the fish is closest to the heat source. Cover the grill and cook until the thickest part of each fillet registers about 135°F on an instant-read thermometer, 20 to 35 minutes depending on the thickness of the fillets. The planks may smoke a bit (this is fine) and will become very aromatic. Let the fillets rest on the planks for 5 to 10 minutes before serving. Cut the salmon fillets crosswise into serving portions and transfer to individual plates. Serve with the sauce.

GRILLED LEMON-ROSEMARY SALMON WITH CREAMY HORSERADISH-SCALLION SAUCE & GRILLED PEACHES image

Categories     Fish     Healthy

Yield 2 servings

Number Of Ingredients 21

For the salmon rub:
2 center cut wild salmon fillets, skin intact and pin bones removed
1 tbls fresh rosemary, minced
1 tsp dried dill
1 large clove garlic, minced
1 1/2 tbls lemon zest
1 tsp sugar
1 tsp kosher salt
1 tsp black pepper
olive oil
juice from 1 lemon
4 fresh rosemary sprigs
8 fresh time sprigs
2 peaches, pitted and halved, and sprinkled with a pinch of salt and sugar.
For the sauce:
1/2 cup sour cream
1 1/2 tbls horseradish
1 scallion, finely chopped
1 tsp lemon juice
a pinch of sugar
kosher salt and white pepper to taste

Steps:

  • For the Salmon: In a small bowl, combine the rosemary, dill, garlic, zest, sugar, salt, pepper, and just enough olive oil to bring the mixture all together. Place the salmon, skin-side down, on an oiled piece of foil. Sprinkle lemon juice onto the foil. Rub the rosemary mixture into the fillets. Allow the fish to marinate, at room temperature, for 30 minutes while the grill heats and the sauce is made. For the sauce: Combine sour cream, horseradish, scallion, lemon juice, sugar, salt and pepper, and set aside. Cook the salmon: Place the foil-wrapped woodchips in the BBQ. Place the foil with salmon on a pre-heated, medium heat, gas or charcoal grill. Place the rosemary and thyme sprigs around the salmon. Close the lid and grill until cooked through, 10-15 minutes, depending on the thickness of the fillets. Remove the salmon, and while the fish is resting for 5 minutes, grill the peaches until charred on each side. Plate the salmon and serve with the creamy sauce and peeled, sliced grilled peaches.

Tips:

  • Choose the right horseradish. Freshly grated horseradish is the best option for this sauce, as it has the most flavor. If you can't find fresh horseradish, you can use prepared horseradish, but be sure to choose one that is made with real horseradish and not just horseradish flavoring.
  • Use fresh lemon juice. Fresh lemon juice will give your sauce the best flavor. If you don't have fresh lemons, you can use bottled lemon juice, but be sure to choose one that is 100% lemon juice and not a lemon-flavored drink.
  • Taste the sauce as you go. This sauce is very easy to make, but it's important to taste it as you go to make sure that it's the right consistency and flavor. If it's too thick, you can thin it out with a little bit of water or broth. If it's too thin, you can simmer it for a few minutes to thicken it up.
  • Serve the sauce immediately. This sauce is best served immediately after it's made. It can be stored in the refrigerator for up to a week, but it will lose some of its flavor over time.

Conclusion:

Lemon horseradish sauce is a versatile and delicious sauce that can be used on a variety of dishes. It's perfect for grilled or roasted meats, fish, or vegetables. It can also be used as a dipping sauce for appetizers or snacks. No matter how you choose to use it, lemon horseradish sauce is sure to please your taste buds.
