Best Citrus Roasted Salmon With Spring Pea Sauce Recipes

CITRUSY ROASTED SALMON AND POTATOES

Steps:

• Set a rack in the center of the oven and heat the oven to 425 degrees.
• In a medium bowl, combine the olive oil, clementine or mandarin juice, lime juice, cilantro, shallot and garlic; set aside citrus sauce.
• Scrub the potatoes and slice them into ¼-inch-thick rounds. In a large (12-inch) cast-iron skillet (or similar oven-safe pan), fan out the potato rounds, overlapping them a little, to cover the surface of the skillet. Season well with salt (about 1 to 1½ teaspoons) and black pepper to taste. Sprinkle on a few red-pepper flakes. Stir the oil and citrus juice mixture to combine again, and spoon half of the sauce over the potatoes. Place the skillet in the oven and roast for 20 minutes, until the edges start to turn golden.
• Remove the skillet from the oven, season the salmon well with salt (about 1½ teaspoons) and pepper to taste and place the salmon on top of the potatoes, skin side down. Sprinkle with a few more red-pepper flakes. Spoon the rest of the citrus sauce over the salmon and top the fish with the citrus slices. Place the skillet back in the oven and roast until the salmon is cooked through to your liking, 10 to 20 minutes, depending on the thickness of the salmon.

CITRUS-ROASTED SALMON WITH HERBS

Steps:

• Combined handful of fresh chives dill, oregano and parsley sprigs, roughly chopped plus more for garnish
• Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F. Line a rimmed baking sheet large enough to hold the salmon with parchment. (The parchment will make it easier to transfer the salmon in one piece from the baking sheet to a serving plate.)
• Drizzle 2 tablespoons of the oil on the parchment. Scatter the onions and toss with oil on the pan. Top with half of the citrus slices.
• Place the salmon skin-side down on the onions and citrus. Using a very sharp knife, slice the salmon crosswise 3 to 5 times into serving portions, leaving about 1/4 inch intact at the bottom attached to the skin. This will make it easier to serve the salmon at the table.
• Arrange the remaining citrus slices around the salmon. Drizzle the remaining 2 tablespoons oil over the citrus and salmon, including in between the scored portions. Season with salt and pepper. Top with the handful of herbs, pressing them into the salmon to coat with a little bit of the oil.
• Roast the salmon until barely cooked through, 20 to 40 minutes, depending on the thickness of the salmon. To check the salmon, poke the center with the tip of a sharp paring knife and twist it. Start checking at 20 minutes, then every few minutes after until the center is just opaque .
• Using the parchment, transfer the salmon, onions, and citrus to a serving platter. Garnish with more fresh herbs.

SLOW-ROASTED CITRUS SALMON WITH HERB SALAD

Steps:

• Heat oven to 300 degrees. Season salmon with salt and pepper on both sides. Place in a large baking dish with sliced lemons, orange and thyme (or rosemary, oregano or marjoram), if using.
• Drizzle everything with olive oil and bake until salmon is just turning opaque at the edges and is nearly cooked through, 25 to 35 minutes.
• Toss fresh herbs with 1 tablespoon lemon juice and flaky salt. Serve alongside salmon.

CITRUS-ROASTED SALMON WITH SPRING PEA SAUCE

Steps:

• Finely grate the zest of 2 oranges and 2 lemons. Cut the remaining orange and lemon into 1/4-inch-thick rounds. Stir together citrus zests (including lime), sugar, 2 teaspoons salt, 1 1/2 teaspoons pepper, and the coriander in a small bowl.
• Place salmon, skin side down, in a nonreactive (glass or ceramic) baking dish large enough for it to lay flat. Rub spice blend all over salmon. Cover with plastic wrap. Refrigerate 2 hours.
• Remove salmon from refrigerator. Wipe off spice blend with paper towels. Let fish stand at room temperature 20 minutes. Meanwhile, preheat oven to 400°F.
• Arrange half the orange and lemon rounds in a single layer in a large roasting pan; place salmon, skin side down, on top. Rub the oil all over salmon. Roast until opaque throughout, about 17 minutes. Remove from oven; cut salmon crosswise into 8 pieces.
• To serve, divide sauce among eight serving plates, and top each with a piece of salmon. Garnish with pea shoots and remaining orange and lemon rounds.
• Prepare an ice-water bath. Bring a pot of water to a boil. Blanch peas and watercress until bright green, about 45 seconds. Immediately transfer with a slotted spoon to the ice bath to stop the cooking.
• Drain peas and watercress, then puree in a blender until smooth, adding 4 to 5 tablespoons water to thin (mixture should be just thick enough to coat the back of a spoon). Pass puree through a fine sieve into a small saucepan. Place over low heat, and whisk in butter, 1 piece at a time; whisk until emulsified, then remove from heat. Season sauce with 1/2 teaspoon salt (or to taste). Serve warm.

CITRUS BAKED SALMON

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
• In a large 9 by 13 shallow baking dish place 1 lemon slice with 1 orange slice side by side so you'll end up with 4 groups. Each salmon fillet will have its own bed of citrus. Season each fillet with salt and pepper then place each salmon fillet over the 2 slices of lemon and orange. In a small bowl mix the dill, sun-dried tomatoes and tomato oil. Divide mixture on top of the salmon fillet, then drizzle with the wine. Place the baking dish in the oven and cook for 8 to 10 minutes.

SPRING-PEA SAUCE

Steps:

• Prepare an ice-water bath; set aside. Bring a medium pot of water to a boil; add salt. Blanch peas and watercress until bright green, about 45 seconds. Immediately transfer with a slotted spoon to ice-water bath to stop the cooking.
• Drain peas and watercress, then puree in a blender until smooth, adding 4 to 5 tablespoons water to thin (mixture should be just thick enough to coat the back of a spoon). Pass puree through a fine sieve into a small saucepan. Place over low heat, and whisk in butter, 1 teaspoon at a time; whisk until emulsified. Season sauce with salt.

ROASTED SALMON WITH PEAS AND RADISHES

Steps:

• Heat oven to 425 degrees. On a rimmed baking sheet, coat salmon with 2 tablespoons oil, season lightly with salt and pepper and arrange skin-side up. Roast until fish is just opaque throughout and cooked to medium, 8 to 10 minutes.
• Meanwhile, in a large nonstick skillet, melt 1 tablespoon butter in remaining 2 tablespoons oil over medium-high. Add halved radishes (not leaves), season with salt and pepper and cook, stirring occasionally, until golden and slightly softened, about 8 minutes. (If using zucchini, you can reduce the cook time to about 5 minutes; if using artichokes, you'll only need to cook about 3 minutes.) Add 1 cup water, the peas, capers, miso and mustard, and cook, stirring to dissolve the miso and mustard, until peas are tender, 3 to 4 minutes.
• Add remaining 2 tablespoons butter and simmer until a light sauce forms, about 2 minutes. Season with salt and pepper and stir in radish leaves and dill.
• Divide vegetables among plates or shallow bowls and top with salmon. Spoon pan sauce on top and serve warm.
