Provided by Food Network Kitchen

Categories     main-dish

Time 37m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 13

1 tablespoon minced red onion
2 tablespoons freshly squeezed lime juice
2 teaspoons honey
2 teaspoons extra-virgin olive oil, plus more as needed
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt, plus more for fish
1 grapefruit
2 blood oranges
1 jalapeno chile, stemmed, seeded, and minced
1/4 medium jicama, peeled and julienned, about 1 1/4 cups
1/2 cup fresh coriander leaves (cilantro), coarsely chopped
4 (6-ounce) salmon fillets
1/4 teaspoon chili powder
8 corn tortillas, warmed (see Cook's Note)

Steps:

  • Preheat the broiler to high. Soak onion in a bowl of very cold water.
  • In a medium bowl, whisk together the lime juice, honey, 2 teaspoons of oil, and 1/2 teaspoon of salt.
  • Trim the top and bottom off the grapefruit to expose the inner fruit. Following the curve of the fruit cut off the skin and white pith. Cut the segments free from the membrane and add to the dressing. Repeat with the oranges. (For help with this, see our Video demo of segmenting an orange.) Add the jalapeno, jicama, and fresh coriander to the citrus mixture. Drain the onions and stir to combine evenly.
  • Position a broiler pan about 6 inches from the broiler and preheat. Lightly brush the salmon with the olive oil. Sprinkle top of the fish with the chili powder and season with salt, to taste. Carefully lay fish, skin-side down, on the hot broiler pan. Broil the fish until just firm and brown, about 7 minutes. Remove pan from the broiler; set the salmon aside on the hot pan to finish cooking, about 5 minutes more.
  • Divide the fish among plates and serve with the salsa and tortillas.

Categories     Spinach

Time 40m

Yield 4 Fillets, 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 22

4 salmon fillets
1 orange, sliced
1 cup white wine
2 tablespoons butter
salt
pepper
2 tablespoons butter
2 tablespoons flour
1 cup vegetable stock
1 cup heavy cream
1 orange, juice of
1 teaspoon lemon juice
1 teaspoon garlic, minced
2 tablespoons fresh parsley, fine chopped
salt
pepper
7 ounces Baby Spinach (1 bag pre washed)
1/4 diced pancetta, fine chopped
1 red onion (small cut in half and thin sliced)
1 tablespoon olive oil
vegetable broth
pepper

Steps:

  • Fish -- A easy way to steam salmon is to individually wrap the fillets in saran wrap and steam right in a colander over a pan of water. No clean up and easy. So, my trick is to set a 10x10 piece of plastic wrap in a small cereal bowl or something similar. Then, set the salmon skin side down on the plastic wrap and top with butter, salt and pepper, 2 orange slices and then 1/4 cup wine. Wrap up the salmon like a little package and you are ready to cook it. Bring a medium pan or pot of water to a boil and set a colander or strainer over the top. This way you will be steaming your fish. As the water comes to a boil, start your sauce.
  • Sauce -- In a small pot add the butter and melt on medium heat, add the flour and mix to make a roux. Cook another minute until well combined. Add in 3/4 cup of the vegetable broth, garlic and cream and cook on medium (not boiling) until thickened. It will take about 7-10 minutes. Once thickened, add the lemon and orange juice, parsley and check for seasoning and add salt and pepper to taste. Set on low while you finish the fish and spinach. Before I serve the sauce I add the remaining 1/4 cup broth to thin it out just a bit.
  • Fish Steaming -- Your water is boiling and the salmon is wrapped. As you were making the sauce. Just set your 4 packets on the colander or steamer and cover. You just want the water level so it doesn't come up through the colander or steamer. Cover -- I use an over sized lid or even just a piece of foil. Don't worry if it doesn't fit, it is just meant to keep some of the steam inches The fish will take around 15 minutes.
  • Spinach -- Sauce is done, fish is cooking. Time to saute your spinach. In a large saute pan, add the olive oil and pancetta and cook 4-5 minutes until golden brown. Add in the onion and cook another couple of minutes. Then add in the spinach and a couple of tablespoons of broth and cook just a few minutes until wilted. I don't like to over cook the spinach.
  • Plate -- Place a bed of spinach on each plate. Unwrap the steamed / poached salmon and place each piece on the bed of spinach. Don't worry about the wine in the bottom of the packets, that was just to keep the fish moist as it cooked, but it certainly couldn't hurt to add it right over the spinach.
  • Note: The skin should come right off when you remove from the packets.
  • Top the salmon with the citrus sauce and enjoy. Serve with some buttered new potatoes.
  • Plate the spinach, nicely wilted but still not too overdone, top with the salmon, orange slices and some of the wine and butter and then top with the citrus sauce.
  • Add some new potatoes on the side or rice pilaf makes for a very nice dinner.

Tips:

  • Choose the right salmon fillet. Opt for a wild-caught salmon fillet if possible, as it is typically lower in contaminants and has a richer flavor.
  • Cook the salmon to perfection. Salmon is best cooked to medium-rare or medium, so that it remains moist and flaky. Overcooking will dry out the fish and make it tough.
  • Use fresh citrus fruits. Fresh citrus fruits, such as oranges, limes, and lemons, will give the sauce a brighter and more vibrant flavor.
  • Don't be afraid to experiment with different herbs and spices. The sauce can be easily customized to your taste preferences. Try adding a pinch of chili powder, cumin, or smoked paprika for a smoky flavor.
  • Serve the salmon immediately. The salmon is best enjoyed immediately after it is cooked, while it is still hot and flaky.

Conclusion:

This salmon with citrus chile sauce is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for any occasion. The salmon is cooked to perfection and the sauce is bursting with flavor. With a few simple tips, you can make this dish at home and impress your family and friends.
