Keto Poached Salmon with Green Goddess Sauce image

This elegant dish is full of healthy fats, and though it seems fancy, it's really simple--especially with the make-ahead sauce that's bursting with fresh herbs. A salmon skin "chip" on each plate adds some fun texture and a little something different.

Time 50m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 17

2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
2 scallions, white and light green parts, chopped (about 1/4 cup)
1 clove garlic, minced (about 1 teaspoon)
1/4 cup fresh parsley leaves
1/4 cup sour cream
2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
2 tablespoons mayonnaise
2 tablespoons chopped fresh tarragon
1 tablespoon chopped fresh dill
1 oil-packed anchovy fillet
Fine sea salt and freshly ground black pepper
Four 4-ounce wild salmon fillets, skins removed and reserved
Fine sea salt and freshly ground black pepper
3 sprigs fresh dill
1 lemon, thinly sliced
1 cup dry white wine
1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil

Steps:

  • For the sauce: Combine the oil, scallions and garlic in a small unheated skillet. Turn the heat to low and cook undisturbed until the mixture begins to sizzle, about 30 seconds. Remove from the heat. Transfer the mixture to a small food processor. Add the parsley, sour cream, lemon juice, mayonnaise, tarragon, dill and anchovy and pulse to mix, then blend until smooth. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
  • For the salmon: Sprinkle the fish all over with 1 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper. Add the dill and lemon slices to a large skillet with high sides. Pour in the wine and 1 cup water, then bring to a boil. Reduce to a simmer and place the fish on top of the lemon and dill. Cover and poach until the fish is just cooked through and flakes easily when lightly pressed with a fork at its thickest part, depending on the thickness of the fish, 8 to 12 minutes.
  • Just before serving, warm the oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Pat the salmon skins dry with a clean towel, then add to the skillet and sprinkle with a pinch of salt. Cook, turning with tongs, until lightly browned and beginning to crisp, 4 to 6 minutes. (The skin will crisp up further as it cools.) Spread 1 to 2 tablespoons of the sauce on 4 plates. Top each with a piece of salmon. Garnish each with a salmon skin "chip" and serve with the remaining sauce on the side.
