Provided by Jennifer Segal

Categories     Dinner

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 14

4 (6-oz) salmon fillets, skin on
1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil
kosher salt
freshly ground black pepper
1 English cucumber (also called hothouse cucumber)
⅓ cup finely sliced red onion, from one small red onion
½ teaspoon salt
¼ cup plus 2 tablespoons sour cream
3 tablespoons mayonnaise, best quality such as Hellmann's or Duke's
2 tablespoons white wine vinegar
¼ cup chopped fresh dill
1 clove garlic, minced
½ teaspoon sugar
freshly ground black pepper, to taste

Steps:

  • Cut the cucumber in half and then slice each half down the middle lengthwise. Use the tip of a teaspoon to scoop out the center seeds. Cut each half into thin slices and place in a colander along with the red onion slices. Toss with salt and let sit in the sink for at least 30 minutes, until the water drains out.
  • In the meantime, make the dressing: combine the sour cream, mayonnaise, white wine vinegar, dill, garlic, sugar and black pepper in a medium bowl and mix well.
  • When the cucumbers and onions are ready, release any excess water by tapping the colander on the base of the sink, then use a large wad of paper towels to pat the vegetables dry. Add to the dressing and toss well. Cover and chill until ready to serve.
  • Preheat the grill to medium-high heat. Clean the grill rack, then brush lightly with oil. Close the lid and let return to temperature. Rub the salmon with olive oil and season generously with kosher salt (about ¾ teaspoon) and pepper. Place the fillets skin side down and grill until golden brown and slightly charred, 4-5 minutes (resist the urge to peek or flip early; when fillets are nicely seared on the first side, they should release easily). Flip the fillets over and continue grilling until done, 2-3 minutes. Let cool slightly, remove the skin if desired, and serve with the cold cucumber-dill salad piled over top or alongside.

SLOW-ROASTED SALMON WITH CUCUMBER DILL SALAD



Slow-Roasted Salmon with Cucumber Dill Salad image

Provided by Food Network Kitchen

Categories     main-dish

Time 1h40m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 English (seedless) cucumber (about 1 pound)
1 tablespoon kosher salt
1 cup low-fat plain yogurt
2 teaspoons roughly chopped fresh dill, (about 2 fronds), plus more fronds for garnish
Pinch sugar
1/2 teaspoon finely grated orange zest
Pinch cayenne pepper
Freshly ground black pepper
1 1/2 pound center cut salmon, skinned
1/4 teaspoon ground turmeric
Kosher salt
Freshly ground black pepper

Steps:

  • For the salad: Quarter the cucumber, lengthwise, and remove the seeds, but leave on the skin. Thinly slice the cucumbers and mix with the salt in a colander. Set in the sink for about 1 hour to drain. Meanwhile, place the yogurt in a coffee filter-lined strainer and set over a bowl to drain, about 1 hour.
  • Rinse the cucumbers with cold, running water. Press down on the cucumbers to extract as much liquid as possible and pat dry. Toss the cucumbers with the drained yogurt, dill, sugar, orange zest, cayenne, and season with pepper, to taste.
  • Preheat the oven to 275 degrees F.
  • Cut the salmon lengthwise and then crosswise to make 4 equal squares of fish. Lightly sprinkle the salmon all over with a pinch of turmeric and rub in slightly to coat evenly. Season salmon with salt and pepper and place on a very lightly oiled oven-proof nonstick pan. Roast the salmon, turning the pieces carefully with a spatula after about 10 minutes, until just cooked through, about 20 minutes in all. (Slow-roasted salmon looks bright orange when done, and will be luscious in the center.) To serve, divide the cucumbers between 4 plates, top with the salmon and garnish with dill fronds.

ROASTED SALMON WITH HORSERADISH CRèME FRAîCHE



Roasted Salmon with Horseradish Crème Fraîche image

Provided by Geraldine Ferraro

Categories     Dairy     Fish     Roast     Horseradish     Vinegar     Orange     Salmon     Sour Cream

Yield Makes 10 servings

Number Of Ingredients 9

1/2 cup plus 1 teaspoon kosher salt
1 cup sugar
1 tablespoon freshly grated orange zest (from 3 medium oranges)
2 1/4 teaspoons freshly ground black pepper
10 (7-ounce) fillets salmon, preferably wild king, skinned
1 cup crème fraïche
4 teaspoons prepared white horseradish, drained
1 teaspoon cider vinegar
6 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil

Steps:

  • In medium bowl, whisk together 1/2 cup salt, sugar, orange zest, and 2 teaspoons pepper. Coat salmon fillets with rub and transfer to rack set over large rimmed baking sheet. Transfer to refrigerator and chill 1 hour.
  • In medium bowl, whisk together crème fraïche, horseradish, vinegar, remaining 1 teaspoon salt, and remaining 1/4 teaspoon pepper. Chill until ready to use.
  • Preheat oven to 450°F. Oil large rimmed baking sheet. Using paper towels, pat salmon fillets dry. In large nonstick pan over moderately high heat, heat 2 tablespoons olive oil until hot but not smoking. Add 3 to 4 fillets, skin side down, and sear until undersides are golden brown, about 5 minutes. Transfer, skin sides up, to baking sheet. Sear remaining salmon in 2 batches, wiping pan clean and adding 2 tablespoons oil between each batch. Transfer salmon to oven and roast just until cooked through, about 5 minutes. Serve with horseradish crème fraïche.

Tips:

  • To ensure the salmon is cooked evenly, use a fish spatula to gently press down on the fillets while they are searing in the pan.
  • For a crispy skin, make sure the salmon fillets are patted dry before searing.
  • To test if the salmon is cooked, insert a fork into the thickest part of the fillet. If it flakes easily, it is done.
  • If you don't have a roasting rack, you can place the salmon fillets on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
  • For a more flavorful cucumber salad, use a variety of cucumbers, such as English cucumbers, Persian cucumbers, and Kirby cucumbers.
  • To make the horseradish Dijon sauce, use freshly grated horseradish for the best flavor.

Conclusion:

This pan-seared and roasted salmon with crisp cucumber salad and horseradish Dijon sauce is a delicious and healthy meal that is perfect for a weeknight dinner. The salmon is cooked to perfection and the cucumber salad is refreshing and flavorful. The horseradish Dijon sauce adds a nice kick of spice. This dish is sure to please everyone at the table.
