Categories     main-dish

Time 30m

Yield 2 servings

Number Of Ingredients 15

2 skin-on salmon fillets, about 6 ounces each
Sea salt
Ground white pepper
3 tablespoons safflower or other vegetable oil
1/2 pound asparagus, trimmed
3 large egg yolks
1/2 teaspoon Dijon mustard
Pinch cayenne pepper
1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice, plus more for seasoning
1 tablespoon minced fresh chives, plus more for garnish
1 tablespoon minced fresh dill, plus more for garnish
1 tablespoon minced fresh tarragon, plus more for garnish
1 stick (8 tablespoons) unsalted butter, cubed and at room temperature
Bring a medium saucepan of water to a boil.
Season your salmon with sea salt and white pepper.

Steps:

  • Preheat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the oil and heat for a couple minutes.
  • Salt the boiling water, add the asparagus and cook for 2 minutes. Drain and reserve on a paper towel-lined plate.
  • Add the salmon skin-side up to the pan and cook for 4 minutes. Flip and cook skin-side down until the skin is crisped and salmon is cooked just past medium-rare, about 6 more minutes.
  • Meanwhile, make the hollandaise sauce: Bring a couple inches of water to a simmer in a small saucepan. Whisk together the egg yolks, mustard, cayenne, lemon juice, 1 tablespoon each of the herbs in a medium metal bowl. Set the bowl over the simmering water (do not let the bowl touch the water) and whisk until the hollandaise has thickened, about 2 minutes. You can move the saucepan on and off the heat to regulate the temperature, so the eggs don't cook too quickly.
  • When the mixture is hot and thickened, gradually add the butter in several batches and whisk after each addition until fully incorporated, about 3 minutes. Add sea salt and white pepper to taste.
  • Place the salmon fillets and asparagus on individual serving plates and spoon the hollandaise over the top. Garnish with the remaining minced herbs and serve.

Time 25m

Yield 2

Number Of Ingredients 10

3 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
1 tablespoon olive oil
Salt and pepper to taste
2 (6 ounce) skinless, boneless salmon fillets
3 egg yolks
1 tablespoon hot water
1 cup butter, cut into small pieces
2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
Salt and pepper to taste
2 tablespoons chopped fresh chives

Steps:

  • Find a high-sided pan large enough to accommodate both salmon fillets side-by-side, without too much excess room; a small skillet or medium-sized saucepan should do. Pour lemon juice and olive oil into the pan, along with enough water to bring the water level up to 3/4-inch. Season the water to taste with salt and pepper, then add the salmon. Pour in enough water to just cover the salmon.
  • Place the salmon over medium-high heat, and heat until the water is hot and steaming, but not simmering (165 degrees F (75 degrees C)); reduce heat if needed to keep the water at the proper temperature. Poach until the salmon turns opaque, and is firm to the touch; or to an internal temperature of 140 degrees F (60 degrees C). Proceed making the Hollandaise sauce while the salmon is poaching.
  • Pour a few inches of water into a saucepan, and bring to a boil over high heat, then turn heat to medium-high and maintain water at a gentle boil. Place the egg yolks in a metal bowl, and whisk in hot water. Place the bowl over, but not touching, the boiling water. Whisk constantly until the yolks thicken, turn a light, opaque yellow, and double in volume. You may need to remove the bowl from the boiling water from time to time in order to keep from scrambling the yolks.
  • When the yolks have thickened and increased in volume, begin whisking in the butter, a cube at a time until it melts and incorporates into the hollandaise sauce. Wait for each cube to melt and incorporate before adding the next. Once all of the butter has been incorporated, remove from heat, whisk in the lemon juice, and season to taste with salt and pepper.
  • To serve, drain the poached salmon and place each piece onto a dinner plate. Generously ladle with the warm hollandaise sauce, and sprinkle with chives.

GRILLED SALMON WITH BASIL AND MINT



Grilled Salmon with Basil and Mint image

Categories     Quick & Easy     Lemon     Lime     Mint     Basil     Salmon     Summer     Grill/Barbecue     Gourmet

Yield Makes 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 7

6 (1/4-inch-thick) lemon slices
6 (1/4-inch-thick) lime slices
1/4 cup plus 1 1/2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
6 (1-inch-thick) pieces salmon fillet with skin (6 oz each)
Fine sea salt to taste
1 cup loosely packed fresh basil, thinly sliced
3/4 cup loosely packed fresh mint, thinly sliced

Steps:

  • Prepare grill for cooking. If using a charcoal grill, open vents on bottom of grill, then light charcoal. Charcoal fire is medium-hot when you can hold your hand 5 inches above rack for 3 to 4 seconds. If using a gas grill, preheat burners on high, covered, 10 minutes.
  • Brush both sides of citrus slices with 1/2 tablespoon oil, then brush fish all over with 1 tablespoon oil and season with sea salt and pepper.
  • Grill citrus slices, covered only if using a gas grill, on lightly oiled grill rack, turning over once, until grill marks appear, 2 to 3 minutes total. Transfer citrus slices to a plate, then, if using a gas grill, reduce heat to moderate. Grill fish, skin sides down, covered only if using a gas grill, until skin is crisp, 3 to 4 minutes. Turn each piece of fish onto 1 side and grill 1 minute. Turn over onto opposite side and grill until fish is just cooked through, 2 to 3 minutes more. Transfer fish to a platter and keep warm, covered loosely with foil.
  • Heat basil and mint in remaining 1/4 cup oil in a heavy skillet over moderate heat, stirring, until herbs are just wilted, about 1 minute.
  • Serve fish with herbed oil and top with citrus slices.
