OVEN-POACHED SALMON STEAKS WITH MUSTARD DILL SAUCE



Oven-Poached Salmon Steaks with Mustard Dill Sauce image

Categories     Mustard     Poach     Salmon     Dill     Gourmet

Yield Serves 12

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 1/2 cups dry white wine
1/4 cup sugar
1 teaspoon peppercorns
1 1/2 teaspoons coriander seeds
1 teaspoon mustard seeds
1 1/2 teaspoons salt
1 onion, sliced
ten 1-inch-thick salmon steaks
Mustard Dill Sauce
dill sprigs for garnish
1 lemon slice for garnish

Steps:

  • In a saucepan combine the wine, 1 1/2 cups water, the sugar, the peppercorns, the coriander seeds, the mustard seeds, the salt, and the onion, simmer the mixture for 15 minutes, and let cool to room temperature. Halve the salmon steaks with sharp knife, discarding as many bones as possible, and re-form the steaks. Arrange the steaks in 2 buttered shallow baking pans, ladle the wine mixture around them, and poach the steaks, covered with a buttered piece of foil, on the upper and lower racks of a preheated 375°F. oven, switching the positions of the pans after 15 minutes, for 30 minutes. Let the steaks cool, venting the foil, and chill them in the poaching liquid, covered, for at least 6 hours or overnight.
  • Separate the salmon steaks into halves, brush them with some of the poaching liquid, and arrange them on a platter. Garnish the salmon with dill sprigs and the lemon slice and serve it with the sauce.

Tips:

  • Choose the freshest salmon steaks you can find. Look for steaks that are firm to the touch and have a bright pink color. Avoid steaks that are slimy or have a dull color.
  • Cook the salmon steaks over medium heat. This will help to prevent the fish from overcooking and becoming dry.
  • Use a non-stick skillet or a well-seasoned cast iron skillet. This will help to prevent the salmon steaks from sticking to the pan.
  • Season the salmon steaks with salt and pepper before cooking. You can also add other seasonings, such as garlic powder, onion powder, or paprika.
  • Cook the salmon steaks for 3-4 minutes per side, or until they are cooked through. The fish is cooked through when it flakes easily with a fork.
  • Serve the salmon steaks with your favorite sides. Some popular sides for salmon include roasted vegetables, mashed potatoes, or rice.

Conclusion:

Salmon steaks are a delicious and healthy meal that can be easily prepared at home. By following these tips, you can create a flavorful and satisfying dish that your family and friends will love. The dill sauce is the perfect complement to the salmon, adding a creamy and tangy flavor.
