Time 40m

Yield 2

Number Of Ingredients 14

½ pound asparagus spears, trimmed and bottom thirds thinly peeled
3 tablespoons unsalted butter
¼ cup chopped pecans
2 (4 ounce) fillets salmon
salt and ground black pepper to taste
2 tablespoons olive oil
½ lemon, halved (juice only)
⅓ (8 ounce) package angel hair pasta
2 tablespoons butter
1 tablespoon minced parsley
1 tablespoon chopped fresh basil
2 tablespoons butter
1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
½ lemon, halved (juice only)

Steps:

  • Place asparagus spears into a large skillet, and pour in enough water to cover the bottom of the skillet about 1/2 inch deep. Place skillet over medium heat, bring to a boil, and reduce heat to medium-low. Simmer until the water has evaporated, about 5 minutes.
  • Stir unsalted butter and pecans into the skillet with asparagus, and let simmer until asparagus are beginning to brown and pecans are fragrant, about 2 more minutes. Remove from heat.
  • Season salmon fillets with salt and black pepper and set aside for about 5 minutes; pat off any excess moisture with paper towels.
  • Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat, and pan-fry the salmon fillets in the hot oil until browned and the flesh flakes easily and is nearly opaque in the center, 4 to 5 minutes per side. Squeeze half a lemon over the salmon fillets as they cook.
  • Fill a large pot with lightly salted water and bring to a boil; stir in the angel hair pasta, and return to a boil. Cook the pasta uncovered, stirring occasionally, until cooked through but still slightly firm, 4 to 5 minutes. Drain well and return to saucepan.
  • Stir 2 tablespoons butter, parsley, and basil into the cooked pasta until coated; sprinkle with salt and black pepper to taste.
  • To make sauce, melt 2 more tablespoons of butter in a small saucepan over low heat until melted; stir in Dijon mustard, and squeeze remaining lemon half into the sauce. Allow to simmer for about 3 minutes to blend flavors.
  • To serve, divide angel hair pasta between two plates, top each serving of pasta with half the asparagus and pecans, and arrange a fillet over the asparagus. Spoon Dijon dressing over fillets to serve.

BROILED SALMON AND ASPARAGUS WITH HERBS



Broiled Salmon and Asparagus With Herbs image

Many people fear the broiler because they don't know how to use it, or they're worried they'll overdo it and end up with a scorched dinner. But when used properly, it's a useful tool ideal for crisping chicken skin, charring vegetables and melting cheese. Broiling is also a great method for perfectly cooking salmon: It yields a deeply browned crust and a tender center that isn't overcooked. All broilers are different, and knowing the strength of yours and being aware of any uneven "hot spots" help maximize the efficiency of it. (As your dish cooks, look to see if it's cooking evenly across the surface, which will tell you if you need to move things around.) In this recipe, soy-and-mustard-coated salmon and asparagus cook under the broiler, and are topped with an herb salad for a hit of brightness, freshness and acidity.

Categories     dinner, weeknight, seafood, main course

Time 20m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 bunch cilantro, leaves and tender stems, roughly chopped
1 bunch parsley, leaves and tender stems, roughly chopped
1 small bunch mint or dill, leaves picked, roughly chopped
4 scallions, light green and white parts, sliced
1/4 to ½ teaspoon red-pepper flakes, according to taste
3 tablespoons lemon juice, plus more as needed
3 tablespoons olive oil, plus more as needed
Salt and black pepper
2 tablespoons soy sauce
1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
1 large bunch asparagus, woody ends trimmed
4 (4- to 6-ounce) salmon fillets, at least ¾-inch thick

Steps:

  • In a medium serving bowl, toss together the herbs, scallions, red-pepper flakes, lemon juice and 2 tablespoons of olive oil, and season to taste with salt and pepper. Season with more lemon or oil as needed until the leaves look glossy. Set aside.
  • Heat the broiler with a rack 6 inches from the heat source.
  • In a small bowl, mix the soy sauce and mustard until smooth. Add the asparagus to a large sheet pan, toss with the remaining 1 tablespoon of oil, then season well with salt and pepper. Move the asparagus to the sides, and place the salmon skin side down in the center. Season the salmon with salt and pepper, brush the tops and sides with the soy mixture, then toss the asparagus in the rest of the soy mixture. (Use a paper towel to wipe off excess soy on the sheet pan, as it will smoke.)
  • Broil until the salmon is opaque with a deep brown crust, about 6 to 8 minutes for medium rare, and 8 to 10 minutes for medium, depending on the strength of your broiler and the thickness of the salmon. (Reduce cooking time by 1 to 2 minutes for thinner fillets.) If it looks like it's browning too quickly or smoking excessively, move to a lower rack to finish cooking. Top the salmon and asparagus with the herb salad or serve on the side with a final round of pepper.

ROASTED SALMON WITH ASPARAGUS, LEMON AND BROWN BUTTER



Roasted Salmon With Asparagus, Lemon and Brown Butter image

Ready in just 15 minutes, this fast dinner combines silky salmon with a vibrant green medley of asparagus and peas. While the fish roasts, the vegetables and sauce come together in one pan on the stovetop. Thinly slicing the asparagus is the trick to maintaining a crisp texture that complements the tender salmon, while bright lemon juice and zingy capers balance the nutty brown butter sauce. Parsley is used here to finish, but dill or tarragon would also be lovely. Leftover vegetables make a fantastic omelet filling the next day.

This dish is so delicious but also so simple to put toghether. It tastes great with rice and roasted asparagus. You could add a tablespoon or so of melted butter to the mustard mix but it's not necessary. Add the garlic and soy sauce depending on how salty and garlicky you like your food.

Time 40m

Yield 2

Number Of Ingredients 14

½ pound asparagus spears, trimmed and bottom thirds thinly peeled
3 tablespoons unsalted butter
¼ cup chopped pecans
2 (4 ounce) fillets salmon
salt and ground black pepper to taste
2 tablespoons olive oil
½ lemon, halved (juice only)
⅓ (8 ounce) package angel hair pasta
2 tablespoons butter
1 tablespoon minced parsley
1 tablespoon chopped fresh basil
2 tablespoons butter
1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
½ lemon, halved (juice only)

Steps:

  • Place asparagus spears into a large skillet. Pour enough water to cover the bottom of the skillet about 1/2 inch deep; bring to a boil over medium heat. Reduce heat to medium-low and simmer until water has evaporated, about 5 minutes.
  • Stir butter and pecans into the skillet with asparagus. Simmer until asparagus begin to brown and pecans are fragrant, about 2 more minutes. Remove from heat.
  • Season salmon fillets with salt and black pepper and set aside for about 5 minutes; pat off any excess moisture with paper towels.
  • Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Pan-fry salmon fillets in hot oil until browned, flesh flakes easily, and the center of fillets are nearly opaque, 4 to 5 minutes per side. Squeeze 1/2 of a lemon over fillets as they cook.
  • Fill a large pot with lightly salted water and bring to a boil; stir in angel hair pasta and return to a boil. Cook pasta uncovered, stirring occasionally, until cooked through but still slightly firm, 4 to 5 minutes. Drain well and return to the pot.
  • Stir 2 tablespoons butter, parsley, and basil into cooked pasta until coated; sprinkle with salt and black pepper.
  • Melt 2 tablespoons butter in a small saucepan over low heat until melted; stir in Dijon mustard and squeeze remaining lemon half into sauce. Simmer until flavors blend, about 3 minutes.
  • Divide angel hair pasta between 2 plates and top each with asparagus and pecans. Place fillets over asparagus. Spoon Dijon dressing over fillets to serve.
