Provided by Valerie Bertinelli

Time 1h15m

Yield 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 21

1 cup dry and crisp white wine
1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
5 sprigs fresh dill
2 lemons, 1 sliced in half, the other sliced into thin rounds
1 pound salmon, pin bones removed, skin intact
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
1/3 cup white wine vinegar
1/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil
1 teaspoon chopped fresh dill fronds
1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
1 pound baby Yukon gold potatoes
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
4 large eggs
1/2 pound haricot vert or thin green beans, trimmed
1/4 cup olive oil
1 large head frisee lettuce, cut into bite-size pieces (about 5 cups)
1 romaine heart, cut into bite-size pieces (about 3 cups)
1 cup cherry tomatoes, sliced in half
1/2 cup pitted kalamata olives, sliced in half

Steps:

  • For the salmon: Add the wine, Dijon mustard, dill sprigs and 1 cup of water to a large straight-sided skillet. Squeeze the juice from the halved lemon into the skillet and then add in the lemon halves. Bring the mixture to a simmer over medium heat. Sprinkle the salmon with a generous pinch of salt and pepper. Once the liquid is simmering, gently add the salmon, skin-side-down, and turn the heat to low. Place the lemon slices on top of the salmon, cover the pan and cook for 10 minutes. Turn the heat off and let sit, covered, for 5 minutes. The salmon should easily flake apart with a fork. Carefully remove the salmon from the liquid and set on a plate. Cool completely.
  • For the dressing: Add the vinegar, oil, dill, mustard, garlic powder, 1/2 teaspoon salt and 1/2 teaspoon pepper to a glass jar with a lid. Cover and shake to emulsify. Set aside until ready to assemble the salad.
  • For the salad: Add the potatoes to a large saucepan and add enough cold water to cover the potatoes by 4-inches. Add a big pinch of salt and heat over medium high heat. Bring the potatoes to a boil and let cook until the potatoes are fork tender, 5 to 8 minutes. Use a slotted spoon to remove the potatoes to a plate. Reserve the pot with boiling water to use to cook the eggs and haricot vert.
  • Fill a large bowl with ice and water. Bring the water back up to a boil, then add your eggs and cook for 7 minutes. Remove the eggs to the ice bath. Bring the water back up to a boil and add the haricot vert. Cook until they are tender-crisp, about 3 minutes. Remove the haricot vert to the ice bath. Drain and cut them into thirds and set aside until ready to assemble. Remove the eggs from the ice bath, peel and set aside.
  • Using the flat base of a measuring cup or a glass, lightly smash the potatoes to expose some of the flesh. Sprinkle with a generous pinch of salt and pepper. Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the olive oil and swirl to coat the pan. Carefully add the potatoes into the pan, seasoning side down. Sprinkle the exposed side of the potatoes and cook until they are crispy and golden brown in places, about 4 minutes per side. Some potatoes may break apart, that's totally fine! Remove to a plate and set aside until ready to assemble.
  • To assemble the salad: Arrange the frisee and romaine leaves on a large platter. Drizzle about half of the dressing and toss to coat. Top the lettuce with the crispy potatoes, haricot vert, tomatoes and olives. Flake the cooled salmon into large pieces and scatter it on top of the salad. Slice the eggs in half and nestle into the salad. Drizzle on the remaining dressing and serve.

CITRUSY ROASTED SALMON AND POTATOES



Citrusy Roasted Salmon and Potatoes image

Citrus-dressed salmon roasted over potatoes is a quick, flavorful one-pan meal that is perfect for any night of the week. Skin-on Yukon Golds are thinly sliced, fanned out and generously drizzled with a citrus sauce to serve as the base for the meal. The salmon is placed directly on top of the potatoes after they're briefly roasted, the fish is drizzled with more sauce, then everything roasts together until the salmon is tender and the potatoes are perfectly cooked through and irresistibly tangy. Feel free to swap out the cilantro for any fresh herb you prefer, such as dill or parsley.

Time 45m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

1/2 cup extra-virgin olive oil
1/3 cup fresh clementine or mandarin juice, plus 1 clementine or mandarin, sliced into ¼-inch-thick rounds, for garnish
1/4 cup fresh lime juice
1/4 cup chopped cilantro leaves and tender stems
1 shallot, chopped
2 large garlic cloves, finely grated
2 large Yukon Gold potatoes (about 1 pound)
Kosher salt and black pepper
Red-pepper flakes, to taste
1 1/2 pounds skin-on salmon fillet (preferably 1 single center-cut piece)

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.
