This is my family's favorite way for using leftover salmon. We came up with it once based on what we liked and what we had in the fridge, and kept making it ever since. It makes a healthy, yummy, low-fat dish that is quick and easy to prepare. Serve garnished with shredded cucumber or fresh cilantro.

TURNIP GREEN SOUP RECIPE - (3.9/5)

Turnip Green Soup Recipe - (3.9/5) image

Provided by msippigrl

Number Of Ingredients 12

Ingredients

1 tablespoon olive oil or butter
1/2 lb. smoked sausage, diced (I like Conecuh brand, Original - use more if you like)
1 onion, chopped (3/4 cup)
1 large (27 oz) can seasoned turnip greens*, undrained
2 (16 oz) cans reduced-sodium chicken broth
1 (10 oz) can Rotel tomatoes with green chilies, undrained
1 (14.5 oz) can Hunt's petite-diced tomatoes, undrained
1 (16 oz) can navy beans, rinsed and drained
1 (15 1/2 oz) can black-eyed peas, rinsed and drained
1 (15 oz) can pinto or kidney beans, rinsed and drained (I used pintos)
1/8 - 1/4 teaspoon garlic salt, or to taste
1/4 - 1/2 teaspoon Creole seasoning, or to taste (such as Tony Chachere's)

Steps:

Chop, slice, dice, or drain everything first. Heat the olive oil in a large pot over medium heat; add the diced sausage and onion and saute until the sausage is lightly browned. Drain if desired. Add the remaining ingredients to the pot, stirring gently just to combine. Reduce heat to low and simmer, uncovered, for about 30 minutes, adding more chicken broth or tomato juice if needed for desired consistency. ((NOTE: The recipe as written is somewhat spicy, so feel free to adjust seasonings according to your tastes. The beans listed are the ones I used, but use whatever kind you like, more or less.))

Time 1h35m

Yield Makes 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

Ingredients

2 tablespoons vegetable oil, divided
1 small yellow onion, halved through root
1 small bunch baby turnips (about 12 ounces), greens torn into pieces, turnips peeled, quartered
3 large shallots, sliced into rings
1 3" piece ginger, peeled, sliced 1/4" thick
3 ounces kombu
1 tablespoon kosher salt, plus more
1 cup dry vermouth
1/2 small butternut squash (about 12 ounces), peeled, seeded, cut into 1/2" thick pieces
6 4-ounce pieces skin-on salmon fillet
Freshly ground black pepper
1 lemon, halved

Steps:

Heat 1 tablespoon oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add onion, cut sides down, and cook, undisturbed, until dark brown, about 5 minutes.
Transfer onion to a large Dutch oven or other large pot and add turnips, shallots, ginger, kombu, 1 tablespoon salt, and 8 cups water. Bring to a gentle simmer (do not boil or broth will be bitter) and cook until broth is light golden and onion is soft, 40-50 minutes.
Add vermouth to broth and simmer 5 minutes. Remove onion and kombu; discard. Add squash and simmer until just softened, 12-15 minutes. Add turnip greens and simmer, stirring occasionally, until tender, about 2 minutes.
Meanwhile, season salmon with salt and pepper. Heat remaining 1 tablespoon oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Cook salmon, skin side down, until skin is very crisp, about 2 minutes. Turn salmon and cook 30 seconds longer (salmon will be rare; it will continue to cook in the hot broth). Spoon broth and vegetables into shallow bowls and top with salmon, skin side up; squeeze lemon over.
DO AHEAD: Broth and vegetables (without turnip greens) can be made 1 day ahead. Reheat and add greens just before serving.

Tips:

Use fresh ingredients whenever possible. This will give your soup the best flavor.
Don't be afraid to experiment with different ingredients. There are many variations of salmon turnip greens soup, so feel free to add or omit ingredients to suit your taste.
If you don't have time to make your own broth, you can use store-bought broth. Just be sure to choose a low-sodium broth so that your soup isn't too salty.
Serve salmon turnip greens soup with a side of crusty bread or cornbread. This will help to soak up the delicious broth.

Conclusion:

Salmon turnip greens soup is a delicious and healthy dish that is perfect for a cold winter day. It is also a great way to use up leftover salmon. So next time you have some leftover salmon, be sure to try this recipe. You won't be disappointed!
