Categories     main-dish

Time 2h35m

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 14

1 mango, peeled and sliced away from the seed
3 to 4 stalks fresh lemongrass, tough outer leaves removed and main yellowish stalk bruised with the side of a knife and cut into manageable lengths (about 2 inches)
1 tablespoon fresh cilantro, stems removed
3 scallions, white and tender green parts only
1 shallot, peeled and quartered
1-inch piece fresh ginger root, skin scraped off with the tip of a spoon, and quartered
1 tablespoon green curry paste
1/4 cup Irvine Spices "Roland" Sriracha Chili Sauce or sambal oelek (chili sauce)
1/2 cup dry Chardonnay
1/4 cup soy sauce
1/2 cup orange juice
1/2 cup coconut milk
2 tablespoons olive oil
6 (8-ounce) portions of salmon

Steps:

  • For the marinade: Add 1 at a time through the feed opening of a running blender, the mango, tender parts of lemongrass, cilantro, scallions, shallot, and ginger root until they begin to form a paste. Leave the blender running and through the feed opening add the curry paste and sriracha chili sauce and blend together for a few seconds, then continue by adding the liquids 1 at a time: Chardonnay, soy sauce, orange juice, and coconut milk. Reserve half of this mixture in a small bowl to make into a sauce.
  • Arrange the salmon in a shallow bowl and pour the other half of the mixture over the fish. Cover and let marinate refrigerated for at least 2 hours.
  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
  • Transfer the reserved sauce mixture to a small saucepan and cook over medium-high heat until it begins to bubble and thicken.
  • Heat the olive oil in an oven-safe skillet and sear each side of the salmon (skin side down first) without disturbing for the first 3 to 4 minutes of sear time on each side. (This allows the surface to caramelize, so the fish won't tear apart when you flip it.) Transfer the pan to the oven to finish the fish - a further 5 to 7 minutes, depending upon the thickness of the fillets. Do not overcook the fish. It is done when it springs back upon being lightly prodded. Use an oven mitt to remove the pan from the oven (that handle will be hot). Transfer salmon to a platter and let rest.
  • Strain the sauce and spoon over the salmon fillets.

Tips:

  • Choose the right salmon: Look for wild-caught salmon if possible, as it is generally considered to be healthier and has a better flavor than farm-raised salmon.
  • Use fresh herbs and spices: Fresh herbs and spices will give your marinade the most flavor. If you don't have fresh herbs on hand, you can use dried herbs, but use about half the amount.
  • Don't marinate the salmon for too long: Over-marinating can make the salmon tough and dry. For best results, marinate the salmon for no more than 30 minutes.
  • Bring the salmon to room temperature before cooking: This will help the salmon cook evenly.
  • Cook the salmon over medium heat: Cooking the salmon over high heat will make it tough and dry. Medium heat will allow the salmon to cook through without overcooking.
  • Don't overcook the salmon: Salmon is a delicate fish, so it is important not to overcook it. Overcooked salmon will be dry and flaky. Cook the salmon until it is just cooked through, or until it reaches an internal temperature of 145 degrees Fahrenheit.

Conclusion:

With these tips in mind, you can create a delicious and flavorful salmon marinade that will help you create a perfect salmon dish. Whether you are grilling, baking, or pan-frying your salmon, a good marinade will help to enhance the flavor and keep the fish moist and tender. So next time you are cooking salmon, don't forget to marinate it first!
