SALMON WITH IRISH LEMON BUTTER



Salmon With Irish Lemon Butter image

Grilled salmon is easy and quick. You can do it indoors in the oven, on your countertop grill, or out on the patio. Irish butter is made with Irish whiskey. I chose to use lemon juice instead. I got this from preparedpantry.com.

Yield 4 fillets, 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 5

4 salmon fillets
2 large egg yolks
1/2 cup butter
2 tablespoons lemon juice
salt and pepper

Steps:

  • Generously salt and pepper salmon fillets. Lightly grease grill with cooking spray or oil. Place the egg yolks in a saucepan. Cut the butter into pieces and add to the saucepan. Heat over medium-low heat while whisking the melted butter and egg yolks together. Continue whisking until the mixture turns lemony-colored and thick. Remove from the heat and stir in lemon juice. Place in a container and refrigerate until firm or serve immediately as a sauce. Grill the salmon about 5 minutes on each side or until done. Spoon sauce over fish and serve, garnished with lemon wedges and parsley.

POACHED SALMON WITH IRISH BUTTER SAUCE

For maximum flavor, we cook the salmon in the time-honoured way: by placing it in boiling salted water.

Provided by Food Network

Categories     main-dish

Yield Serves 8

Number Of Ingredients 10

2 1/2 pounds (1.12 kilograms) center cut of fresh salmon
Water
Salt
2 egg yolks
1 dessertspoon cold water
4 ounces (110 grams) butter, diced
Approximately 1 teaspoon lemon juice
1/4 ounce (8 grams) butter
Salt and freshly ground pepper
Sprigs of watercress or flat parsley

Steps:

  • Half fill the pan with measured salted water and bring to the boil. Put in the piece of fish, just covering with water, and bring back to the boil. Simmer gently for 20 minutes. Turn off the heat, allow the fish to sit in the water. Serve within 15 to 20 minutes.
  • Meanwhile make the Irish Butter Sauce. Put the egg yolks into a heavy bottomed stainless steel saucepan on a very low heat. Add the cold water and whisk thoroughly. Add the butter bit by bit, whisking all the time. As soon as one piece melts, add the next. The mixture will gradually thicken, but if it shows signs of becoming too thick or 'scrambling' slightly, remove from the heat immediately and add a little cold water if necessary. Do not leave the pan or stop whisking until the sauce is made. Finally add the lemon juice to taste. Pour into a bowl and keep warm over hot, but not boiling, water.
  • To serve, lift the cooked salmon carefully from the poaching liquid. Peel off the skin gently. Garnish with sprigs of parsley or watercress. Serve with Irish Butter Sauce.

BROILED SALMON WITH MUSTARD AND LEMON



Broiled Salmon With Mustard and Lemon image

In this simple salmon recipe, a quick stint under the broiler transforms smooth Dijon mustard into a savory, caramelized crust, and a squeeze of fresh lemon juice adds just the right brightness and tang to the rich, sweet fish. Covering the baking pan with a protective layer of aluminum foil helps with the cleanup, meaning you can cook dinner and wash up in under 30 minutes.

Categories     dinner, easy, quick, seafood, main course

Time 15m

Yield 2 servings

Number Of Ingredients 6

2 (6- to 8-ounce) skin-on salmon fillets, each about 1-inch thick
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt (such as Diamond Crystal), plus more to taste
Freshly ground black pepper
2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
Lemon wedges, for serving

Steps:

  • Position one oven rack 6 inches from the broiler heat source then heat the broiler. Season the salmon fillets all over with ½ teaspoon salt and a couple of grinds of pepper and place them on an aluminum foil-lined sheet pan, skin side down.
  • In a small bowl, whisk the oil and mustard until well mixed. Brush the tops and sides of the salmon with this mustard mixture.
  • Broil until the salmon is opaque with a deep brown crust, about 6 to 8 minutes for medium-rare. (The center of the fillets will be dark pink, if you pierce one with a paring knife and take a look.) If your fillets are thinner, reduce cooking time by 1 to 2 minutes. If you prefer more well-done fish, add 1 or 2 minutes to the cooking time.
  • Squeeze a lemon wedge all over the cooked salmon fillets, then serve salmon with more lemon wedges on the side.

SEARED SALMON WITH RAISIN AND CAPER BUTTER



Seared Salmon with Raisin and Caper Butter image

Provided by Paul Flynn

Categories     Food Processor     Fish     Herb     St. Patrick's Day     Raisin     Salmon     Capers

Yield Makes 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

For butter
1/4 cup raisins
1 stick Irish butter such as Kerrygold, softened*
1/3 cup capers
Grated zest of 1 lemon
1 tablespoon chopped chives
For salmon
8 (6-ounce) salmon fillets, preferably wild
2 teaspoons kosher salt
1 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
2 tablespoons vegetable oil
*Available at specialty foods shops. If unavailable, substitute regular unsalted butter and add 1 teaspoon kosher salt.

Steps:

  • Make butter:
  • In small bowl, combine raisins and 1/2 cup hot water. Cover and let soak 2 hours, then drain.
  • In food processor, combine butter, raisins, capers, and lemon zest and pulse until well combined. Stir in chives. Transfer to large sheet of wax paper and roll into 6-inch-long log. Wrap in wax paper and refrigerate at least 1 hour to allow flavors to develop.
  • Make salmon:
  • Season salmon fillets with salt and pepper. In 12-inch nonstick skillet over moderately high heat, heat 1 tablespoon oil until hot but not smoking. Add 4 fillets, skin-sides-up, and sear until undersides are well browned, about 4 minutes. Turn fillets over and sear until just cooked through, 3 to 4 minutes more. Transfer to serving platter and keep warm. Wipe pan clean, heat remaining 1 tablespoon oil, and repeat with remaining 4 fillets.
  • Slice log of butter into 8 coins. Top each salmon fillet with 1 coin and serve immediately.

Tips:

  • For the best results, use fresh, high-quality ingredients.
  • When cooking the salmon, be careful not to overcook it. Salmon is best cooked when it is still slightly pink in the center.
  • If you don't have Irish butter, you can use unsalted butter instead.
  • Be sure to use fresh herbs for the best flavor. If you don't have fresh herbs, you can use dried herbs, but use half the amount.
  • Serve the salmon with your favorite sides, such as roasted vegetables, mashed potatoes, or rice.

Conclusion:

This recipe for salmon with Irish lemon butter is a simple but delicious dish that is perfect for any occasion. The salmon is cooked to perfection and the lemon butter sauce is rich and flavorful. This dish is sure to impress your friends and family.
