SALMON TWO WAYS WITH CAPER SAUCE



Salmon Two Ways with Caper Sauce image

Provided by Food Network

Categories     main-dish

Time 1h15m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 32

4 skinless salmon fillets (about 6 ounces each)
Salt and ground black pepper
1/2 cup panko breadcrumbs
2 tablespoons minced fresh parsley
1 tablespoon chopped fresh dill
1 tablespoon minced garlic
3 tablespoons olive oil
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 potato, peeled and cut into small cubes
1 onion, chopped
1 red bell pepper, chopped
4 ounces sliced smoked salmon, chopped
2 tablespoons capers
Salt and ground black pepper
2 thick slices pumpernickel bread, cut into cubes
3 tablespoons olive oil
1 tablespoon red wine vinegar
1/2 teaspoon Dijon mustard
1 small shallot, diced
1/2 teaspoon salt
Good pinch of ground black pepper
1 small cucumber, peeled and cut into cubes
2 tomatoes, cut into cubes
1/2 red onion, thinly sliced
1 tablespoon chopped fresh dill
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 shallot, minced
4 tablespoons (1/2 stick) unsalted butter, cut into cubes
1 tablespoon capers
1 tablespoon chopped fresh dill
1/2 lemon
Salt and ground black pepper

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
  • For the salmon: Season the salmon filets with salt and pepper. In a bowl, mix together the panko, parsley, dill, garlic and 1 tablespoon of the oil until the panko is evenly coated. Coat the salmon with the panko mixture and let sit for a few minutes so the crust sticks.
  • Heat the remaining 2 tablespoons of oil in an ovenproof skillet over medium-high heat. Add the salmon and cook until the breadcrumbs are golden, 2 to 3 minutes per side. Transfer the skillet to the oven and cook for 5 minutes. Keep the salmon warm.
  • For the salmon hash: Heat the oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the potatoes and cook, stirring occasionally, until they start to brown, 4 to 5 minutes. Add the onion and bell pepper and cook until the potatoes are cooked through and the peppers are soft, 10 minutes more. Turn off the heat and stir in the salmon and capers. Season with salt and pepper. Keep the hash warm.
  • To make the salad: Toss the bread cubes with 1 tablespoon of the oil on a baking sheet. Spread the bread in a single layer and toast in the oven, stirring once or twice, until crunchy but not too hard, 8 to 10 minutes.
  • In a large bowl, whisk together the vinegar, mustard, shallot, remaining 2 tablespoons oil, salt and pepper. Add the cucumber, tomatoes, onion and dill and stir to coat everything in the dressing. Stir in the toasted bread.
  • For the sauce: Heat the oil in a small skillet over low heat. Add the shallot and cook until softened, about 2 minutes. Turn off the heat and whisk in the butter 1 piece at a time. Stir in the capers and dill. Squeeze in the lemon juice and season with salt and pepper.
  • To plate: Divide the salmon hash among 4 plates and top each with a salmon filet. Spoon the sauce over the salmon. Divide the salad among the plates, placing it on the side of the salmon.

PASTA WITH SMOKED SALMON AND CAPERS



Pasta with Smoked Salmon and Capers image

Another classic combination, this dish makes people think you went to a lot of trouble. Actually it's quite simple. Any shape of pasta works, but I prefer a small noodle such as shells or bowties. Despite what an Italian might otherwise recommend, I like to serve this dish with freshly grated Parmesan cheese.

Yield Serves 4

Number Of Ingredients 10

1/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil
1 small onion, chopped
1/4 pound smoked salmon, chopped
1 cup heavy cream (a.k.a. whipping cream)
3 tablespoons capers, drained
Salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste
N/A freshly ground black pepper
1 pound pasta, cooked al dente, drained (reserving about 1/4 cup of the cooking water), and tossed with olive oil
N/A olive oil
Freshly grated imported Parmesan cheese

Steps:

  • In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat. Add the onion and sauté until translucent, but not browned. Add the smoked salmon and continue cooking just until the salmon turns opaque, 1 to 2 minutes. Pour in the cream and add the capers. Taste and adjust seasoning with salt and pepper. Be careful how much salt you add because the smoked salmon and capers are both salty. Add the pasta and toss to coat. If there doesn't appear to be enough sauce, add a couple of tablespoons of the pasta cooking water to thin it down. Serve with freshly grated Parmesan cheese.

SOUR CREAM & DILL SAUCE TO SERVE WITH SALMON



Sour Cream & Dill Sauce to Serve With Salmon image

I prefer to make this sauce ahead to give the flavors time to blend together. I've usually served this with salmon baked with a combination of white wine, tarragon, dill & shallots or scallions. I'm posting this the way it originally came to me, but nowadays I would omit the salt and let others add it at the dinner table.

CREPES WITH SMOKED SALMON AND LEMON-HERB SOUR CREAM



Crepes with Smoked Salmon and Lemon-Herb Sour Cream image

Provided by Food Network

Time 55m

Yield 6 to 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 14

1 cup quick mix flour (recommended: Wondra)
1 cup milk
1/3 cup cold water
3 eggs, beaten
4 tablespoons melted butter, plus more for pan
Pinch kosher salt
1 cup sour cream or creme fraiche
1 lemon, zested and juiced
1/4 cup minced dill
2 tablespoons snipped chives
2 tablespoons chopped capers
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
4 ounces smoked salmon
Caper berries, for garnish, optional

Steps:

  • In a medium bowl, add all of the crepe batter ingredients and whisk together until smooth. Expect the batter to be thinner than normal pancake batter. Refrigerate the batter for at least 30 minutes.
  • When ready to make the crepes, lightly brush a 6 to 8-inch crepe pan or small nonstick skillet with melted butter and put over medium-high heat.
  • Ladle a few tablespoons of batter into the center of the hot pan.
  • Lift the pan, removing it from the heat, and swirl so the batter coats the bottom of the pan in an even layer that's as thin as possible. If you have a few holes in the crepe, you can add a bit more batter to those bald spots to cover them. If there is excess batter in the pan, simply pour it back into the batter bowl.
  • Return the pan to the heat and cook until the edges crisp and the batter loses its shine, about 45 seconds to 1 minute. Using a nonstick spatula, flip the crepe and continue cooking on the other side, another 30 to 45 seconds.
  • If making crepes in advance, you can either slide the cooked crepes onto a cookie sheet and keep warm in a 200 degree F oven, or stack on a plate, putting waxed paper between each layer to prevent sticking while you continue with the remaining batter.
  • When ready to serve, heat 1 crepe in a pan and add some of the filling, warming slightly. (If you imagine your crepe to be divided into quarters, you only want to add filling to the bottom corner in order to fold it properly. The crepe should be folded in half (like you would an omelet) and then again into a neat triangle (like a piece of pie). If you want more filling, crepes can be either rolled or folded in half.)
  • Combine the sour cream or creme fraiche, lemon zest, lemon juice, dill, chives, and capers, in a small bowl and season with salt and pepper, to taste.
  • To serve, put a piece of smoked salmon in the bottom corner of a warmed crepe, folding in half (like you would an omelet) and then again into a neat triangle (like a piece of pie). Repeat with remaining crepes and filling. Arrange the crepes on a serving platter. Top each with a dollop of lemon-herb cream and a caper berry before serving.

SMOKED SALMON W/KETTLE CHIPS, SOUR CREAM & HORSERADISH SAUCE



Smoked Salmon W/Kettle Chips, Sour Cream & Horseradish Sauce image

I got this recipe from a Better Homes and Gardens "Appetizers" magazine. It is my absolute favorite hors d'oeurve. The smoked salmon goes perfect with this spicy/tangy sauce, and it is sure to impress guests. Also, I think it's surprisingly easy to make. My advice is to prepare the sauce ahead of time, then assemble just before serving so the chips don't get soggy. Also, kettle chips are highly recommended for their sturdiness. Enjoy!
