SAUTéED SALMON WITH CITRUS SALSA



Sautéed Salmon with Citrus Salsa image

Consider this speedy salmon dish a fall anecdote to a holiday season filled with rich stews, braises, and roasts. The tart, bright citrus topper cuts through the natural fattiness of the salmon; it would overwhelm lighter fish like cod or flounder. Serve for a simple, elegant date night, or double to serve 4. After freeing the citrus sections, squeeze the membranes over a bowl and make a quick vinaigrette for enjoying during the week. Change up the salsa with chopped tart-crisp apples and a seeded minced jalapeño, or try diced ripe pear and pomegranate arils.

CITRUSY ROASTED SALMON AND POTATOES



Citrusy Roasted Salmon and Potatoes image

Citrus-dressed salmon roasted over potatoes is a quick, flavorful one-pan meal that is perfect for any night of the week. Skin-on Yukon Golds are thinly sliced, fanned out and generously drizzled with a citrus sauce to serve as the base for the meal. The salmon is placed directly on top of the potatoes after they're briefly roasted, the fish is drizzled with more sauce, then everything roasts together until the salmon is tender and the potatoes are perfectly cooked through and irresistibly tangy. Feel free to swap out the cilantro for any fresh herb you prefer, such as dill or parsley.

Time 45m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

1/2 cup extra-virgin olive oil
1/3 cup fresh clementine or mandarin juice, plus 1 clementine or mandarin, sliced into ¼-inch-thick rounds, for garnish
1/4 cup fresh lime juice
1/4 cup chopped cilantro leaves and tender stems
1 shallot, chopped
2 large garlic cloves, finely grated
2 large Yukon Gold potatoes (about 1 pound)
Kosher salt and black pepper
Red-pepper flakes, to taste
1 1/2 pounds skin-on salmon fillet (preferably 1 single center-cut piece)

Steps:

  • Set a rack in the center of the oven and heat the oven to 425 degrees.
  • In a medium bowl, combine the olive oil, clementine or mandarin juice, lime juice, cilantro, shallot and garlic; set aside citrus sauce.
  • Scrub the potatoes and slice them into ¼-inch-thick rounds. In a large (12-inch) cast-iron skillet (or similar oven-safe pan), fan out the potato rounds, overlapping them a little, to cover the surface of the skillet. Season well with salt (about 1 to 1½ teaspoons) and black pepper to taste. Sprinkle on a few red-pepper flakes. Stir the oil and citrus juice mixture to combine again, and spoon half of the sauce over the potatoes. Place the skillet in the oven and roast for 20 minutes, until the edges start to turn golden.
  • Remove the skillet from the oven, season the salmon well with salt (about 1½ teaspoons) and pepper to taste and place the salmon on top of the potatoes, skin side down. Sprinkle with a few more red-pepper flakes. Spoon the rest of the citrus sauce over the salmon and top the fish with the citrus slices. Place the skillet back in the oven and roast until the salmon is cooked through to your liking, 10 to 20 minutes, depending on the thickness of the salmon.

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: Look for wild-caught, sustainable salmon that is fresh and firm. Avoid salmon that is pale or has an off odor.
  • Cook the salmon gently: Salmon is a delicate fish, so it is important to cook it gently to avoid overcooking. The best way to cook salmon is to bake it, pan-fry it, or grill it. You can also cook salmon in a smoker or on a cedar plank.
  • Use fresh citrus: The citrus sauce is the star of this dish, so it is important to use fresh citrus fruits. Lemons, limes, and oranges are all good choices.
  • Add some herbs: Herbs can add a lot of flavor to the salmon and the citrus sauce. Some good choices include basil, dill, thyme, and rosemary.
  • Make sure the sauce is well-balanced: The citrus sauce should be tart, sweet, and salty. If it is too tart, add some honey or sugar. If it is too sweet, add some lemon juice or vinegar. If it is too salty, add some water.

Conclusion:

This salmon with citrus sauce is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for any occasion. The salmon is cooked gently to perfection and the citrus sauce is the perfect complement. Serve this dish with your favorite sides, such as rice, roasted vegetables, or a salad.
