SALMON & SHRIMP CONFETTI CROQUETTES



Salmon & Shrimp Confetti Croquettes image

This is my own creation. We had an extra guest for dinner and needed to expand the salmon out a bit, so I decided to utilize the few shrimp we had left in the freezer. Also just happened to have some colorful veggies in the fridge, so I tossed those in for some color. This turned out really good.

Time 1h15m

Yield 9 croquettes, 4-6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 lb salmon fillet
1/2 lb medium shrimp
2 tablespoons red sweet bell peppers
2 tablespoons scallions
1 1/2 teaspoons creole seasoning
1 -2 egg
Tabasco sauce
1 1/2 cups cracker crumbs

Steps:

  • Steam salmon filet. Chill and flake apart.
  • Peel, devein shrimp. Slice them in half length wise, the cut into third to make nice little chunks.
  • Finely chop bell pepper and scallion.
  • Mix these and remaining ingredients together (use only 1/2 cup cracker crumbs. Setting aside the remaining crumbs to roll croquettes in).
  • Form into desired sized croquettes.
  • Roll and cover with cracker crumbs (I used crushed club crackers).
  • Place on a lightly greased baking sheet and bake at 400°F for approx 45 min, depending on how big they are.
  • Note: This being the first time I ever made Salmon Croquettes and although this turned really good, I think using corn flakes for the coating would be good too. I served Papergoddess's Cilantro Mayonnaise with.
  • Also. The prep time is an estimate. It includes the cooking time for the salmon fillets and shrimp along with putting it all together. You can save time by using canned salmon and pre-cooked shrimp. Fresh is always best though.

Place the diced onion, tomato,mushroom and bacon on the fish, then spoon the capers over the filling. Squeeze the juice from half a lemon over the entire fish. You may want to use less juice since capers are also added. Finally, sprinkle some salt and pepper over the fish and stuffing.
  • Cover the salmon tightly with foil and bake in oven for about 35 to 45 minutes, or until the vegetables are slightly cooked and the fish is tender.
  • When the fish is done, it will look as if a handful of confetti was thrown on top of it.

Provided by Mary Nolan

Categories     main-dish

Time 1h5m

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 16

2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
1 cup diced onion
1/2 teaspoon dried red pepper flakes
1 small red bell pepper, diced (about 1 cup)
2 medium carrots, diced (about 1 cup)
1/2 pound yellow zucchini, diced
1/2 pound green zucchini, diced
2 (15 1/2-ounce) cans chickpeas
2 cups reduced-sodium chicken broth
1/2 cup dry white wine
1 1/2 teaspoons kosher salt, plus more for seasoning
2 sprigs rosemary, plus 6 sprigs for garnish
1 bay leaf
Canola oil, for searing
6 (6-ounce) pieces center-cut salmon fillets
Freshly ground black pepper

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
  • Heat the olive oil in a large pan over medium heat. Add the onion and saute until translucent, about 5 minutes. Add the red pepper flakes and cook 1 more minute. Add the bell pepper, carrots, yellow zucchini, and green zucchini and cook until just beginning to brown, about 5 minutes. Add the chickpeas, broth, white wine, 1 1/2 teaspoons salt, 2 rosemary springs, and bay leaf and simmer for 15 minutes. Remove the rosemary sprigs and bay leaf.
  • Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add enough canola oil to coat the bottom of the pan. Season salmon fillets with kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper. Once the oil is hot, add the salmon (work in batches to avoid overcrowding the pan) and sear until the exterior is crisp and golden, about 3 to 4 minutes per side. Place salmon in the oven to finish cooking to medium doneness, turning once, about 4 to 6 minutes (depending on the thickness of the salmon).
  • To serve, use a slotted spoon to scoop the chickpea mixture onto a serving dish. Place the seared salmon alongside the chickpeas and garnish with a sprig of rosemary.
