SALMON WITH HERB-SHRIMP SAUCE WW



Salmon With Herb-Shrimp Sauce Ww image

DH fell in love with salmon with this dish, and we have been poaching fish in sherry or dry vermouth ever since. The herb-shrimp sauce makes it very special. I use dry sherry or dry vermouth instead of dry wine because they store indefinitely. The original recipe in "Simply the Best" called for reduced-calorie margarine, but I prefer using 1/2 butter (as long as the food doesn't swim in it!) and 1/2 olive oil. This is one diet-friendly recipe that doesn't seem like a diet recipe. In the old WW program one portion was 4 "thingies".

Time 26m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 12

12 ounces salmon fillets
1/4 cup dry sherry or 1/4 cup dry vermouth
1 teaspoon extra virgin olive oil
1 teaspoon butter
2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
3/4 cup low sodium chicken broth
2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
1/4 lb cooked shrimp (peeled)
1 tablespoon fresh oregano, minced or 1/2 teaspoon dried oregano
1 tablespoon fresh rosemary leaves, minced or 1/2 teaspoon dried rosemary
1/2 teaspoon fresh coarse ground black pepper
8 sprigs fresh rosemary (for garnish)

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit. Spray 8-inch square baking pan with nonstick cooking spray.
  • Pat salmon dry. Place in the pan, and add the sherry or vermouth (or dry white wine if you insist).
  • Bake salmon at 350 degrees Fahrenheit until the fish is opaque and flakes easily when tested with a fork, 15-20 minutes. (Alternatively, we have successfully poached the fish in the microwave, check for flakiness at 6 minutes.).
  • In a medium nonstick saucepan, heat olive oil, and melt butter. Add the flour and cook, stirring constantly, about 1 minute.
  • Gradually stir in the broth and lemon juice. Cook, stirring constantly, until the mixture boils and thickens, 2-3 minutes.
  • To the saucepan add the shrimp, oregano, rosemary and pepper. Cook, stirring as needed, until heated through, about 2 minutes.
  • Place the salmon on a platter.
  • Pour the juices from the salmon baking pan into the sauce. Cook, stirring as needed, until heated through, about 1 minute.
  • Pour the sauce over the salmon and serve. Garnish with fresh rosemary sprigs.

Provided by Valerie Bertinelli

Categories     main-dish

Time 35m

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 14

2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil, plus more for oiling the grill grates
1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
1 pound center-cut salmon, skin and pin bones removed, cut into 24, 1 1/2- to 2-inch cubes
1 small red onion, cut into 1 1/2-inch-wide pieces
1 lemon, sliced into 1/3-inch-thick rounds and then quartered plus lemon wedges for serving
Herb Sauce, recipe follows
1/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil
1 tablespoon lemon zest and 1 tablespoon lemon juice, from 1 lemon
1/4 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes
1 clove garlic, smashed and peeled
Kosher salt
1/2 cup packed basil leaves
1/2 cup packed parsley leaves

Steps:

  • Preheat the grill to 375 degrees F.
  • Add the olive oil, Italian seasoning, 1 teaspoon salt and 1/2 teaspoon pepper to a large bowl and whisk to combine. Add the salmon, red onion, and lemon quarters to the bowl and gently toss to coat.
  • To assemble the kebabs, thread a few pieces of red onion onto an 8-inch-long metal skewer (see Cook's Note). Next, add a piece of salmon, followed by a quarter of lemon. Continue threading the ingredients onto the skewer until you have 4 pieces of salmon on the skewer. Set the finished kebab aside and continue the process with the remaining skewers and ingredients.
  • Generously oil the grates of the preheated grill. Add the salmon kebabs to the grill and cook, turning halfway through, until nice grill marks have formed, and the salmon easily releases from the grill, 4 to 6 minutes. (This can alternatively be done on an indoor grill pan.)
  • Remove the salmon to a serving platter and drizzle with the Herb Sauce. Serve with lemon wedges.
  • Add the olive oil, lemon zest, lemon juice, red pepper flakes, garlic and 1/2 teaspoon salt to a small food processor fitted with the blade attachment. Pulse until the garlic is finely chopped. Add the basil and parsley leaves and blend until finely chopped. Transfer the herb sauce to a bowl to serve with the grilled salmon.

SLOW-ROASTED SALMON WITH HERB SAUCE



Slow-Roasted Salmon with Herb Sauce image

"This dish utilizes a really simple technique of roasting salmon at a very low temperature," says Jerry Traunfeld. "I pair it with a white wine and butter sauce and top it with rough chopped herbs. It's an especially great recipe if you have an herb garden, but you can easily prepare it with herbs from the supermarket."

Categories     main-dish

Time 1h

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 1/2 pounds Wild King salmon fillet, or Sockeye
2 tablespoons olive oil
Sea salt
1 small shallot, finely chopped
1 cup dry white wine (Sauvignon Blanc)
1 tablespoon lemon juice
6 tablespoons unsalted butter, cut into 4 pieces, at room temp
1/2 cup Fresh herbs (chives, French tarragon, mint, lemon thyme, lovage, chervil, sorrel, bronze fennel), plus more for garnish

Steps:

  • Prepare the salmon for roasting: Preheat oven to 225 degrees F. Remove the salmon skin by cutting a flap of skin from the tail end. Hold the skin with a kitchen towel for a good grip, then hold the knife at a 30-degree angle downward to the cutting board between the skin and the flesh. Move the towel back and forth so the knife cuts through the salmon without cutting off much of the flesh. Using tweezers or needle-nose pliers, pull out any small bones left in the salmon, then cut fillet into 4 even slices at an angle. Place salmon fillets into a shallow roasting pan, drizzle with olive oil, and sprinkle with sea salt. Rub the fish with the oil to evenly coat, then place on a parchment-lined rimmed baking sheet. Bake 15-20 minutes, checking after 10 minutes. Note: If the fish is cold from the refrigerator, let it come to room temp, about 30 minutes, before baking.
  • Make the beurre blanc sauce and prepare the herbs: In a medium saucepan, add the shallot, white wine, and lemon juice. Bring to a boil, then reduce to a simmer and cook until liquid has reduced by half. While the liquid is reducing, chop the herbs. Any combination of herbs will work as long as they're chopped roughly (not finely), to preserve their character and flavor. Once the liquid has reduced, whisk in the butter, one piece at a time, to thicken the sauce.
  • Finish the sauce and assemble the dish: Salmon is cooked when it's flaking apart gently and no longer raw in the middle. Set aside. Finish the sauce by pouring it into a blender to break up the shallots and create a better emulsion with the butter. Pour back into the pan over low heat and add the herbs. Place a salmon fillet on a serving plate, ladle herb sauce on top. Garnish with the additional fresh herbs and serve.

SALMON TOURNEDOS WITH HERB SAUCE



Salmon Tournedos with Herb Sauce image

Categories     Herb     Bake     Salmon     Winter     Dill     Bon Appétit

Yield Serves 4

Number Of Ingredients 9

4 6- to 8-ounces salmon steaks (about 3/4 inch thick), boned, skinned
2 burrito-style flour tortillas (about 10-inch diameter)
3 tablespoons minced fresh chives
3 tablespoons minced fresh dill
2 tablespoons plus 1/2 cup minced red onion
3 tablespoons butter
1 cup dry white wine
2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
6 tablespoons (3/4 stick) chilled butter, cut into 6 pieces

Steps:

  • Tuck 1 narrow end of salmon in toward center. Wrap second narrow end around first to form solid round. Repeat with remaining salmon steaks, forming 4 solid rounds. Season with salt and pepper.
  • Preheat oven to 400°F. Cut four 3/4-to 1-inch-wide strips from center section of each tortilla. Wrap 2 strips around each salmon round, overlapping ends to encircle completely. Secure with toothpicks. Transfer to baking sheet. Sprinkle tops of salmon with 2 tablespoons chives, 2 tablespoons dill and 2 tablespoons onion. Press to adhere.
  • Melt 3 tablespoons butter in heavy medium saucepan over medium heat. Add 1/2 cup onion; sauté until tender but not brown, about 5 minutes. Add wine and lemon juice. Increase heat; boil until sauce is reduced to 1/3 cup, stirring occasionally, about 9 minutes. Set aside.
  • Bake salmon packets until salmon is cooked through, about 10 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, bring sauce to simmer over low heat. Add 6 tablespoons chilled butter 1 piece at a time, whisking just until melted after each addition. Remove from heat. Mix in 1 tablespoon chives and 1 tablespoon dill. Season to taste with salt and pepper.
  • Transfer salmon to plates. Spoon sauce around and serve.

Tips:

  • Mise en place: Before you start cooking, make sure you have all of your ingredients and equipment ready to go. This will help you stay organized and avoid scrambling.
  • Use fresh ingredients: The fresher your ingredients, the better your dish will taste. If possible, use wild-caught salmon and fresh herbs.
  • Don't overcook the salmon: Salmon is a delicate fish, so it's important to cook it gently. Overcooked salmon will be dry and tough.
  • Make sure the sauce is well-seasoned: The herb shrimp sauce is what really makes this dish special, so make sure it's well-seasoned. Taste the sauce as you're making it and adjust the seasonings as needed.
  • Serve immediately: This dish is best served immediately after it's made. The salmon will start to dry out if it sits for too long.

Conclusion:

This salmon with herb shrimp sauce is a delicious and healthy seafood dish that's perfect for a special occasion or a weeknight meal. The salmon is cooked gently and topped with a flavorful herb shrimp sauce. The dish is served over rice or your favorite vegetables.
