SALMON WITH RED WINE-BALSAMIC SAUCE image

Categories     Fish

Number Of Ingredients 10

2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
1 small shallot, minced
1 thyme sprig
1/2 teaspoon cracked black pepper
2 cups dry red wine
1/4 cup balsamic vinegar
2 tablespoons heavy cream
4 tablespoons cold unsalted butter, cut into tablespoons
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
Four 6-ounce skinless salmon fillets

Steps:

  • 1. In a medium saucepan, heat 1 tablespoon of the olive oil. Add the shallot and cook over moderate heat until softened, about 4 minutes. Add the thyme sprig, black pepper, red wine and balsamic vinegar and boil over high heat until reduced to 2 tablespoons, about 12 minutes.

SAUTEED SALMON WITH RED ONION MARMALADE



Sauteed Salmon with Red Onion Marmalade image

Provided by Food Network

Time 45m

Yield 3 servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

4 (6-ounce) salmon fillets, skin on
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
Peanut oil
2 tablespoons butter
1 tablespoon oil
2 red onions, cut into 1-inch dice
3 tablespoons balsamic vinegar
3 tablespoons red wine
3 sprigs fresh thyme
1/2 cup heavy cream
1 tablespoon butter
Chive flowers, as garnish

Steps:

  • Season the salmon with salt and pepper on both sides. Make 2 or 3 slits across the skin of the salmon. Place a cast-iron skillet over high heat. Add enough peanut oil to lightly coat the bottom of the pan. Just as the oil begins to smoke add the salmon, skin-side down and cook for 4 minutes. Lower the heat and cook the salmon all the way on the same side, about 10 minutes - it will cook from the bottom up. During the last 30 seconds or so, spoon some of the oil over the top of the salmon to help cook it through.
  • While the salmon is cooking, make the sauce. In a stainless steel saute pan over medium heat, add 1 tablespoon butter and the oil. When the butter is melted, add the onions and cook until translucent but not browned, about 6 minutes, stirring constantly. Season with salt and pepper. Deglaze with the balsamic vinegar and red wine. Add the thyme and cook until the liquid is almost completely reduced, about 3 minutes. Add the cream and bring to a simmer. Cook until the cream is slightly reduced and starts to thicken, about 3 to 4 minutes, stirring occasionally. Be careful as the cream could boil over at this point. Once the cream is reduced, remove the thyme sprig. Season, to taste, with salt and pepper. Stir in the remaining butter.
  • Spoon the onion marmalade onto plates. Top with the salmon and garnish with chive flowers.

Salmon Chambord (Salmon In Red-Wine Sauce) image

Provided by Craig Claiborne And Pierre Franey

Categories     dinner, main course

Time 30m

Yield Four servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 1/2 pounds boneless salmon fillet
4 tablespoons butter
1/4 cup shallots, peeled and finely chopped
3 tablespoons carrots, scraped and finely diced
1/2 teaspoon garlic, peeled and finely minced
2 sprigs fresh thyme
1/2 bay leaf
1 tablespoon arrowroot or cornstarch
1 1/2 cups dry red wine
Salt to taste, if desired
Freshly ground pepper to taste
1 tablespoon marc de bourgogne, Italian grappa or Calvados

Steps:

  • Remove the skin from the salmon fillet. Set the skin aside. Cut the skinless fillet into four pieces of equal size. Set aside.
  • Melt one tablespoon of the butter in a saucepan and add the shallots, carrots and garlic. Cook briefly, stirring. Add the thyme sprigs, bay leaf and reserved salmon skin. Cook, stirring, about three minutes and sprinkle with arrowroot. Stir to blend and add the wine. Bring to the simmer and cook over low heat about 15 minutes.
  • Line a bowl with a sieve and pour the sauce into the sieve. Press with a spatula or the back of a large spoon to extract as much liquid as possible from the solids. There should be about three-quarters of a cup. Discard the solids.
  • Heat one tablespoon of butter in a skillet, preferably of the nonstick variety, large enough to hold the salmon pieces in one layer. Sprinkle the salmon pieces with salt and pepper and add them to the skillet. Cook two to three minutes (the cooking time will depend on the thickness of the fish pieces) and turn. Cook two to three minutes on the second side. Sprinkle with the marc de bourgogne and pour the strained red-wine sauce over the fish. Turn the pieces in the sauce and transfer the pieces to a warm platter. Swirl the remaining two tablespoons of butter into the sauce and pour it over the fish.

SALMON FILLETS BRAISED IN RED WINE



Salmon Fillets Braised In Red Wine image

Provided by Bryan Miller And Pierre Franey

Categories     dinner, main course

Time 1h10m

Yield Six servings

Number Of Ingredients 14

4 tablespoons butter
1/2 cup chopped shallots
1/2 cup chopped onions
1/2 cup chopped celery
1 cup diced carrots
1 pound fish bones, and the salmon head, gills removed
3 1/2 cups dry red wine, such as a Cotes du Rhone
1 cup water
1/2 bay leaf
1/4 teaspoon dried thyme
4 sprigs fresh parsley
4 salmon fillets, boneless and skinless, each 6 to 8 ounces, at room temperature
1/2 teaspoon salt
Freshly ground black pepper to taste

Steps:

  • In a saucepan, place one tablespoon of the butter, a quarter cup of the shallots, the onions, celery and carrots. Cook, stirring, for one minute over a medium-high flame. Chop the fish bones and head coarsely and add them to the pan. Cook and stir for two minutes. Pour three cups of the wine and the water into the pan, then add the bay leaf, thyme and parsley. Reduce the cooking liquid for 45 minutes over a medium-low flame, or until it reaches about one cup. Strain the broth into a pan. Discard the vegetables.
  • Select a pan large enough to hold the fish in one layer. Rub the bottom of the dish with a half teaspoon of butter and sprinkle the remaining shallots over the bottom of the pan. Arrange the fish, skin side down, in the pan. Sprinkle with salt and pepper generously. Add the remaining half cup of wine and fish broth. Dot the fish with one tablespoon of the butter.
  • Place the pan over a medium-high flame and cook, covered, for about 90 seconds, flip the fillets gently and cook another 90 seconds (cooking time may vary with thickness of the fish). The salmon should be just barely cooked in the center; do not overcook.
  • Transfer the fish to a serving dish, cover with foil and keep it warm.
  • Over a high flame, reduce the cooking liquid to about one cup. Strain it through a fine sieve and into a saucepan. Swirl in the remaining butter and, while hot, spoon the sauce over the fish. Serve immediately.

  • Don't overcrowd the pan when searing the salmon. This will prevent the fish from cooking evenly.

  • Reduce the sauce until it is thick and syrupy. This will help it to coat the salmon evenly.
  • Serve the salmon immediately with the red wine balsamic sauce. It can be served over rice, pasta, or vegetables.
