Time 20m

Yield 4 fish fillets, 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 pint grape tomatoes, halved
1 medium shallot, thinly sliced
1 tablespoon drained capers
2 tablespoons red wine vinegar
salt
3 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
4 (7 ounce) salmon fillets, with skin
fresh ground pepper
1/2 teaspoon ground cumin
2 tablespoons canola oil
1 tablespoon minced parsley
1 tablespoon chopped basil

Steps:

Preheat the oven to 425°.
In a bowl, toss the tomatoes with the shallot, capers, vinegar and 1/2 teaspoon of salt.
In a medium ovenproof skillet, heat 1 tablespoon of the olive oil. Season the salmon with salt and pepper and add it to the skillet, skin side up.
Cook over moderately high heat until well-browned on the bottom, about 3 minutes. Carefully flip the fillets.
Transfer the skillet to the oven and roast until the salmon is cooked through, about 7 minutes. Transfer the fish to plates and pour off any fat in the skillet.
Place the skillet over moderate heat and add the tomato mixture along with the cumin, canola oil and the remaining 2 tablespoons of olive oil. Cook, scraping up any bits stuck to the skillet, until the tomatoes just soften, about 2 minutes.
Pour the sauce over the salmon, sprinkle with the parsley and basil and serve right away.

Salmon & Melting Cherry Tomatoes image

Categories main-dish

Time 50m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 8

Good olive oil
1 cup chopped sweet onion, such as Vidalia
2 teaspoons minced garlic (2 cloves)
2 cups (1 pint) cherry or grape tomatoes, halved through the stem
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
1 1/2 tablespoons good balsamic vinegar
1 1/2 tablespoons julienned fresh basil leaves
1 (2-pound) salmon fillet, cut crosswise into 4 pieces

Steps:

Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F.
Heat 3 tablespoons of the olive oil in a medium (10-inch) saute pan. Add the onion and saute over medium-low heat for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until very tender but not browned. Add the garlic and saute for 1 more minute. Stir in the tomatoes, 1 teaspoon salt, and 1/2 teaspoon pepper and cook over medium-low heat for 10 to 15 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the liquid evaporates and the tomato sauce thickens slightly. Off the heat, stir in the vinegar and basil.
Meanwhile, place a large (12-inch) cast-iron pan over high heat for 5 minutes. Brush the salmon all over with olive oil, sprinkle liberally with salt and pepper, and place it skin side up in the pan. Cook the fish for 3 to 4 minutes without moving them, until browned. Turn the salmon skin side down with a small metal spatula and transfer the pan to the oven for 8 minutes. (The salmon will not be completely cooked through.) Remove the fish to a serving platter, cover with aluminum foil, and allow to rest for 5 minutes.
Reheat the tomatoes, season to taste, and serve hot, warm, or at room temperature along with the salmon.
