Best Lime Infused Atlantic Salmon With Asian Salad Recipes

LIME INFUSED ATLANTIC SALMON WITH ASIAN SALAD

Steps:

• Combine all marinade ingredients in a bowl and stir well.
• Place salmon fillets in a shallow dish and cover with marinade.
• Rub the marinade gently on to the salmon and allow to rest while preparing the salad (5-10 minutes is more than enough time for the flavours to infuse).
• Combine salad ingredients (except sesame seeds) in a large bowl and then place on to the serving plates.
• Combine all ingredients for the dressing. Sesame oil can be quite powerful so if the taste is too strong, counter with more honey and lime juice.
• Drizzle dressing onto the salad and then sprinkle with sesame seeds.
• Place salmon fillets top-side down in a hot non-stick pan. Reduce to a medium heat and cook each side for 3-4 minutes depending on the thickness, turning only once. Salmon is best served rare to medium-rare.
• Place Atlantic Salmon with side salad and serve.

ASIAN SALMON BOWL WITH LIME DRIZZLE

Steps:

• Heat oven to 400°F. Cook rice as directed on package. In a small saucepan, melt butter over medium heat. Sauté garlic and pepper flakes until garlic is lightly golden, 1 minute. Add syrup, juice and soy sauce; cook until bubbling, 3 minutes. In a bowl, combine cornstarch and 1 teaspoon water; stir into garlic glaze. Cook until slightly thick, 1 minute. Arrange fillets on a foil-lined baking sheet. Spread 1 teaspoon glaze over each fillet. Roast until just cooked through, 12 minutes. In a medium skillet, warm oil over medium heat. Add 1 package spinach; sauté until just wilted. Remove from pan; set aside. Repeat with second package spinach. Divide rice among 4 bowls; top each with 1/4 spinach and 1 salmon fillet, broken into large pieces. Drizzle with remaining sauce; sprinkle each with 1/2 teaspoon sesame seeds.

CILANTRO LIME SALMON

Steps:

• Add the oil and 1 tablespoon of the butter to a nonstick skillet and place over medium-high heat. Season the salmon on both sides with salt and pepper. Add the fish to the skillet and cook for 3 to 4 minutes per side, depending on the thickness of the fish and the degree of doneness you like. Remove from the skillet and keep warm.
• Return the skillet to medium heat and add the honey, soy, remaining 2 tablespoons butter and half of the lime zest and juice. Cook, stirring, until the butter melts and starts to bubble. Cook for a minute until the sauce thickens a little. Add the salmon and spoon over the sauce. Cook for another minute, basting as you go. Sprinkle generously with the cilantro.
• Stir the remaining lime juice and zest into the cooked rice. Serve the salmon with the rice, extra sauce and lime wedges on the side.

SEARED ATLANTIC SALMON FILLETS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
• Heat a large non-stick saute pan until hot. While the pan is heating, season the salmon fillets with the salt and white pepper. Pour the oil into the pan and warm oil for 15 seconds. Place the salmon fillets, flesh side down, into the saute pan. Using a low flame, saute the fish for about 2 1/2 minutes. Place the pan in the oven and roast for 6 to 7 minutes. The salmon should be medium rare. When serving, turn the salmon fillets over to expose the nicely browned side.
• Place spinach mixture in a mold on a plate. Place salmon on the top. Pour the sauce around the fish. Garnish with minced lemongrass and lime leaves.
• Using a low flame, heat a stainless steel saucepan. Warm the oil in the pan for 15 seconds. Add the minced shallots and sweat for 30 seconds. Next, add 2 cups of the white corn kernels. Add the coconut milk, reserved corn cobs, bruised lemon grass stalks, galangal, and 2 bruised or crinkled kaffir lime leaves, and white pepper. Simmer the mixture for about 7 to 10 minutes, not letting it reduce very much.
• Remove from the heat and add the nam pla. Let the mixture rest to absorb all the aromatic flavors for 30 minutes. Take the corncobs, lemongrass, galangal, and kaffir lime leaves out of the saucepan and throw them away. Puree the mixture until smooth.
• Heat sauce in a stainless pan. Add the remaining corn to the pan.
• Bring the water to a boil in a large pot. When the water comes to a boil, add salt. In a large bowl add some ice and water to create a water bath.
• Add the spinach to the boiling water and cook for 1 minute. Drain the spinach. Place in the ice bath to cool. Drain spinach and squeeze very dry.
• Add butter to a saute pan and heat. Add shallots and cook for 1 minute. Add mushrooms and saute until the release their liquid, about 5 minutes. Add spinach and saute until heated through. Season with salt and pepper.

GRILLED SALMON SALAD WITH LIME, CHILES AND HERBS

Steps:

• Light the grill for indirect heat, or heat the oven to 450 degrees.
• As the grill or oven heat up, make the dressing: Halve 1 lime, and squeeze its juice into a small bowl. Add the chile slices, half of the sliced shallot (save the rest for serving), the fish sauce and a pinch each salt and sugar. Let sit for 1 minute to dissolve the salt, then whisk in the olive oil. It won't emulsify, so mix again before using.
• Brush the salmon with oil, and place it in a grilling basket if you have one. Cook over the indirect (unlit) side of the grill, for 2 to 5 minutes per side, depending on how hot the grill is and how thick the salmon is. Note that individual fillets will cook faster than a single large piece. Check the salmon often. (Alternatively, roast the salmon on a baking sheet in the oven, until just cooked to taste, 7 to 12 minutes; you don't have to flip it.)
• As the salmon cooks, halve the other lime. Brush the cut sides with olive oil and grill, cut-side down, over direct heat until charred, about 1 minute. If using the oven, throw the halves, cut-side up, on the roasting pan with the salmon. They won't char, but they will cook and mellow in flavor, which is the aim.
• When the salmon is cooked, transfer it to a plate and spoon some dressing over it. Let it cool slightly, then break up the fish into large chunks.
• Place greens, remaining shallots, herbs, and radishes or cucumber, if using, in a large shallow bowl or on a platter, and add a little more of the dressing. Squeeze some of the juice from a charred lime half over it and drizzle with a little olive oil. Toss and taste, adding lime juice, olive oil or salt as needed.
• Top with the salmon chunks and drizzle with more (or all) of the dressing. Serve with the remaining charred lime half on the side for squeezing.

ASIAN CITRUS SALMON

GARLIC LIME SALMON

Steps:

• Preheat broiler. In a small bowl, mix the first 5 ingredients. Place salmon fillets on a broiler pan, skin side down. Broil 4-6 in. from heat until fish just begins to flake easily with a fork, 15-20 minutes. Brush frequently with onion mixture during the last 5 minutes of cooking.

SMOKED SALMON WITH ASIAN DRESSING

Steps:

• Mix the ingredients for the dressing. It will keep in the fridge overnight, although the flavours will get hotter as the chilli sits in the liquid.
• To serve, arrange the salmon on plates - it works out at about 3 slices per person. Mix the avocado, cucumber and coriander, then pile or scatter on top. Spoon over a little of the dressing and serve.

LIME & GINGER SALMON

• Heat the grill to High. Lay the salmon on a non-stick baking tray and grill for 5-6 mins each side or until cooked through. Meanwhile, heat a wok with the remaining marinade and the stock, add the baby corn and broccoli, stir-fry for about 5 mins, then add the pak choi and cook for 2 mins more.
• Serve the salmon on top of the vegetables with any sauce from the pan and sprinkle with the spring onions.
