Time 40m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 10

12 new potatoes
1 lemon, sliced
2 teaspoons minced fresh ginger root
2 teaspoons minced garlic
4 (4 ounce) fillets skinless salmon
salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste
1 ½ cups freshly squeezed orange juice
1 cup finely chopped fresh mint, divided
12 broccolini
2 tablespoons olive oil

Steps:

  • Place potatoes into a large pot and cover with salted water; bring to a boil. Reduce heat to medium-low and simmer until tender, 10 to 15 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, place lemon slices on the bottom of a large skillet. Sprinkle 1 teaspoon ginger and 1 teaspoon garlic over the lemon slices. Season salmon with salt and pepper and place into the skillet. Pour in enough orange juice to just cover the lemon slices. Sprinkle 1/2 cup mint and remaining ginger and garlic on top of the salmon. Place broccolini on top. Cover the skillet.
  • Steam salmon over medium heat until no longer pink in the middle and flesh flakes easily with a fork, 8 to 10 minutes.
  • Transfer 5 tablespoons of the orange juice mixture from the skillet to a small bowl. Whisk in remaining mint and olive oil to make a vinaigrette.
  • Drain potatoes. Serve salmon fillets on a platter with potatoes, broccolini, and vinaigrette on the side.
