Best Pancetta Wrapped Salmon Recipes

PEAS AND PANCETTA WITH SALMON

Steps:

• Put a medium-sized saute pan over medium-high heat. Once heated, add 2 tablespoons of the blended oil and add the pancetta and saute until rendered and slightly crisp. Add the shallots, garlic, pinch of salt and freshly cracked black pepper, to taste, the peas, and orange juice. Simmer until the peas are just cooked, about 2 minutes. Add the butter and swirl to combine and melt. Turn off the heat and toss in the dill and parsley. Taste and adjust seasoning, if needed.
• Put a large cast iron pan over high heat. Season both sides of the fish with salt. Add the remaining 1/4 cup blended oil to the hot pan and add the seasoned fish (presentation side down first). Allow to cook until golden brown on first side, about 2 to 3 minutes. Flip and turn the heat off.
• In a small bowl add the pea shoots and drizzle with extra-virgin olive oil. Put 2 salmon fillets onto each plate and top with the peas and pancetta. Drizzle the sauce around the salmon and garnish with the pea shoots and orange zest. Sprinkle with fleur de sel and serve.

JAMIE OLIVER SALMON WITH PROSCIUTTO AND LENTILS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F=220 degrees celsius. Drain the lentils and put into a pot and cover with water. Bring to a boil on med-high and then turn heat down and simmer until tender (This only takes about 5-10 minutes).
• Season the salmon fillets with a little pepper before wrapping them in the prosciutto slices. You can either wrap them whole or, wrap in the middle of the fillets, leaving some of the flesh exposed. Drizzle with olive oil and roast in the oven for around 10 minutes until the prosciutto is golden.
• While the salmon is in the oven and the lentils are simmering, season the plain yogurt with salt and pepper to your liking. Also go ahead and chop up all your herbs.
• Drain away the water from the lentils and season carefully with salt, pepper, the lemon juice and olive oil. Just before serving, stir the herbs and spinach into the lentils on a high heat, until wilted. Divide the lentils among 4 plates. Place a salmon fillet on top of your pile of lentils, and finish with a drizzle of lightly seasoned yogurt.
