Ingredients

2 ounces olive oil
Six 5-to-6-ounce salmon fillets
1 tablespoon salt
1 teaspoon ground pepper
2 whole lemons
2 ounces grape seed oil
1 cup peeled and small-cubed Yukon gold potatoes
1/2 cup thin-sliced red onion
2 cups fresh haricot verts
1 tablespoon minced garlic
1 ounce apple juice
1 ounce lemon juice
1 ounce stone ground mustard
2 tablespoons butter

Steps:

For the salmon: Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. In a saute pan over medium-high heat, add the olive oil and allow to warm. Sprinkle the salmon with the salt and pepper, and then add to the pan. Sear the salmon on first side until browned, 3 to 4 minutes. Then flip the fillets and repeat the process, reducing the heat to medium for the second side. Fish will be medium at this stage. Finish in the oven for additional desired cooking. Once cooked, squeeze the lemons over the fish and into pan and allow the salmon to rest while cooking the vegetables.
For the salad: Add the grape seed oil to a saute pan over high heat and allow to warm. Then add the potatoes and onions, cooking until the onions soften, 3 to 4 minutes. Next, add the beans, garlic, apple juice, lemon juice and mustard, reducing the heat to medium. Cook until beans have softened, a final 3 minutes. Remove from the heat and stir in the butter.
Serve the salad in center of the plate. Top with the salmon and drizzle with the vegetable pan sauce.

SHEET-PAN ROASTED SALMON NIçOISE SALAD

Sheet-Pan Roasted Salmon Niçoise Salad image

Here, the classic French salad becomes an elegant dinner, with mustard-glazed salmon in place of tuna, roasted vegetables and jammy eggs served over a jumble of salad greens tossed with a red-wine vinaigrette. Roasting the vegetables, rather than serving some steamed and some raw as you would for a traditional Niçoise, gives this dish great texture and a delicious contrast of temperatures. The vegetables and salmon are roasted on a single sheet pan, making this an elevated take on the one-dish dinner - fit for company and easy enough for a weeknight.

Ingredients

1 pound baby Yukon Gold potatoes, halved
8 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
2 teaspoons kosher salt, plus more to taste
1 1/4 teaspoons black pepper
2 large eggs
2 tablespoons red-wine vinegar
2 teaspoons Dijon mustard
1 teaspoon minced garlic (about 1 clove)
1 anchovy fillet, minced (optional)
6 ounces haricots verts or green beans, trimmed
1 1/2 cups cherry tomatoes
1/2 cup pitted olives, preferably Niçoise or Kalamata
4 (6-ounce) center-cut, skin-on salmon fillets
5 ounces tender salad greens, like baby red and green leaf lettuce

Steps:

Heat the oven to 400 degrees and place a rack near the top of the oven. Place the potatoes on a sheet pan, add 1 tablespoon olive oil, 1/2 teaspoon salt and 1/2 teaspoon pepper and toss. Arrange the potatoes so the cut sides are facing down and roast for 20 minutes.
While the potatoes roast, fill a medium saucepan with water and bring to a boil. Add the eggs and cook over medium heat for exactly 6 minutes. Remove the eggs, and when they are cool enough to handle, peel and quarter them.
Make the dressing: In a large bowl, whisk together the vinegar, 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard, the garlic, anchovy (if using), 1/2 teaspoon salt and 1/2 teaspoon pepper. Slowly whisk in 4 tablespoons of olive oil and set aside.
Add the haricots verts, tomatoes and olives to the sheet pan with the potatoes, along with 2 tablespoons olive oil and 1/2 teaspoon salt. Using tongs, toss well, then move the vegetables to the sides to create space in the center of the sheet pan. Pat the salmon fillets dry with a paper towel and place them, skin-side down, in the center of the sheet pan.
Brush fillets with remaining 1 tablespoon olive oil and 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard, and sprinkle with 1/2 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper. Roast on the top rack in the oven for 10 minutes. Turn the broiler to high and broil for 2 to 3 minutes to lightly brown the salmon. (If you don't have a broiler, roast salmon for an additional 2 to 3 minutes instead.) The salmon should flake easily and be just cooked in the center.
Add the greens to the large bowl with the dressing, and toss gently. Place greens on a large platter, leaving a narrow border at the platter's edges. Place the salmon fillets in the middle of the platter, then arrange the roasted vegetables and eggs around them. Sprinkle with salt and serve.

SEARED SALMON WITH CITRUS AND ARUGULA SALAD

Seared Salmon With Citrus and Arugula Salad image

Bursting with color and bright, bold flavors, this simple recipe makes an elegant main course for a dinner party, or a welcome diversion from your go-to weeknight salmon. The technique of cooking salmon in a cast-iron skillet creates a beautifully golden-brown sear and crispy skin. For best results, make this recipe during the cold weather months, when citrus fruit is at its best.

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 15

Ingredients

4 tablespoons olive oil, plus more for brushing
2 tablespoons freshly squeezed orange juice
2 teaspoons Dijon mustard
2 garlic cloves, minced (about 2 teaspoons)
3/4 teaspoon kosher salt, plus more to taste
2 tablespoons freshly squeezed lemon juice
1/2 teaspoon black pepper, plus more to taste
1/4 cup thinly sliced shallot (from 1 large shallot)
1 small grapefruit
2 to 3 navel oranges, blood oranges or Cara Cara oranges, or a combination (about 1 1/2 pounds total)
4 (6-ounce) skin-on salmon fillets
2 to 3 ounces baby arugula (about 4 cups)
1/2 medium fennel bulb, trimmed, cored and very thinly sliced crosswise
1 ripe avocado, halved, pitted, peeled and thinly sliced
1/4 cup shelled, roasted salted or unsalted pistachios, chopped

Steps:

Make the glaze for the salmon: In a small bowl, whisk 2 tablespoons olive oil with the orange juice, mustard, half the chopped garlic and 1/4 teaspoon salt. Set aside.
Make the salad dressing: In another small bowl, whisk together 2 tablespoons olive oil with the lemon juice, 1/2 teaspoon salt and 1/2 teaspoon pepper. Stir in the shallots and the remaining garlic, then set aside.
Using a small serrated knife, peel the grapefruit and oranges and trim to remove any remaining pith. Slice all the peeled fruit crosswise into thin circles (no larger than 1/2-inch thick); remove the seeds and set aside.
Heat a 12-inch cast-iron or heavy stainless-steel skillet over medium-high until it's extremely hot (a drop of water flicked onto the pan should turn to steam almost immediately), about 3 minutes. Meanwhile, pat the salmon fillets dry using paper towels, brush both sides with olive oil, and season all over with salt and pepper.
When the pan is ready, cook the salmon fillets skin-side down over medium-high without moving until the salmon skin releases easily from the pan, 3 to 4 minutes. Using a pair of tongs or a spatula, wiggle the fillets to loosen the skin from the bottom of the pan, then carefully flip. Lower the heat to medium and cook until the salmon is cooked through but still slightly rare in the center, 4 to 5 more minutes, depending on the thickness of the fillets.
Transfer to a rimmed plate or serving dish, and brush the glaze all over the salmon, making sure to coat the fillets.
Combine the arugula and fennel in a large bowl. Pour the dressing over the salad and toss well. Add the avocado, citrus rounds and pistachios, and toss gently. Transfer to a shallow serving bowl or platter and serve alongside the salmon.
