SALMON AND ASPARAGUS WITH MAîTRE D'HôTEL BUTTER



Salmon and Asparagus with Maître D'Hôtel Butter image

Real chefs use microwaves, and anyone who tells you differently is lying. Microwaves are a great hack for achieving perfectly cooked salmon, every time. I made this whole dish in just a few minutes, and it's perfect if you're cooking for yourself, or a small family. The salmon comes out soft without overcooking, and it's a restaurant-quality dish you can easily make at home.

Categories     main-dish

Time 35m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 17

2 oil-packed anchovies, drained
2 teaspoons prepared horseradish
1 teaspoon honey
1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
1 stick (8 tablespoons) unsalted butter, at room temperature
1/2 teaspoon lemon juice
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley
1 bunch pencil-thin asparagus
2 teaspoons extra-virgin olive oil
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
Zest of 1 lemon
2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley
4 farm-raised skinless salmon fillets, about 5 ounces each (see Cook's Note)
Extra-virgin olive oil, for drizzling
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
Lemon wedges, for garnish

Steps:

  • For the maître d'hôtel butter: With a mortar and pestle, mash the anchovies together with the horseradish (see Cook's Note). Add the honey, Dijon, butter, lemon juice and salt and pepper to taste. Combine to form a cohesive paste. Add the parsley and mix to combine. Set aside. If not using right away, transfer to a sheet of parchment paper or plastic wrap and, using the wrap, form it into a cylindrical shape; refrigerate until firm, about 30 minutes.
  • For the asparagus: Cut or snap off the woody ends of the asparagus. Place the asparagus and 1 tablespoon water in a shallow microwave-safe baking dish. Cover the dish tightly with plastic wrap. Microwave on high for 2 1/2 minutes. Remove, then drain and season with the oil, salt and pepper, lemon zest and parsley.
  • For the salmon: Place 2 salmon fillets in a shallow bowl or plate. Drizzle with olive oil and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and microwave on 50% power in 1-minute increments until the salmon is cooked to your liking, 2 to 2 1/2 minutes. Transfer to plates. Repeat with the remaining 2 fillets.
  • While the filets are still warm, dollop with some of the maître d'hotel butter on top and allow it to melt (save the remaining maître d'hotel butter for another use). Serve with the asparagus and lemon wedges.

Categories     appetizer

Time 40m

Yield 8 to 10 servings (16 puffs)

Number Of Ingredients 13

3 ounces hot-smoked salmon
1/4 cup whipped cream cheese, at room temperature
2 tablespoons mayonnaise
1 1/2 teaspoons lemon zest
1 teaspoon roughly chopped fresh dill
1/2 teaspoon hot sauce
1/4 teaspoon smoked paprika
2 1/2 teaspoons roughly chopped chives
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
All-purpose flour, for rolling the dough
One 8-ounce can refrigerated crescent roll dough (8 pieces)
4 to 5 medium asparagus spears, trimmed and cut into 2-inch pieces
1 large egg

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper.
  • Put the smoked salmon in the bowl of a food processor and pulse until finely chopped. Add the cream cheese, mayonnaise, lemon zest, dill, hot sauce, smoked paprika and 1 1/2 teaspoons of the chives. Blend until the mixture is smooth. Season with salt and pepper.
  • Lightly dust a clean surface with flour. Unroll the crescent dough and separate into 8 triangles, following the perforations. Cut each triangle in half lengthwise to make 2 thin triangles. Starting at the wide end of a triangle piece, spread 1 1/2 teaspoons of the smoked salmon mixture toward the tip. Place a piece of asparagus about 1/4 inch from the bottom of the dough's wide end, then roll up towards the tip. Place on the baking sheet with the tip of the roll-up flat on the baking sheet. Repeat with all the dough.
  • Lightly whisk the egg with 1/2 teaspoon water. Brush the egg wash over each puff, then sprinkle some of the remaining chives over each. Bake until golden brown, 15 to 18 minutes.

Provided by Florence Fabricant

Categories     dinner, pastas, main course

Time 35m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

1/2 pound fresh asparagus, medium thickness
Salt
1 tablespoon butter
1/2 tablespoon minced shallots
1 cup heavy cream
4 ounces smoked salmon sliced 1/4-inch thick
Freshly ground black pepper
1 teaspoon fresh lemon juice
9 to 10 ounces fresh green fettuccine noodles
2 tablespoons minced fresh dill

Steps:

  • Snap off the ends of the asparagus where they break naturally and peel the stalks. Cut the asparagus on a slant to pieces about an inch long.
  • Steam the asparagus until they are just barely tender and still bright green, about three minutes. Rinse under cold water, drain well on paper towels and set aside.
  • Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil for the pasta.
  • While the water is coming to a boil, melt the butter in a large heavy skillet. Add the shallots and saute until soft but not brown. Stir in the cream and simmer about five minutes, until the cream has thickened somewhat.
  • Cut the salmon into slivers, add it to the cream and remove the skillet from the heat. Season with pepper and lemon juice. Add the asparagus.
  • When the pot of water is boiling, add the fettuccine, stir it once or twice, then cook two to three minutes after the water has returned to a boil. Drain well.
  • Briefly reheat the sauce. Transfer the fettuccine to a warm serving bowl, pour the sauce over it and toss. Sprinkle with dill and serve.

ROASTED SALMON WITH ASPARAGUS, LEMON AND BROWN BUTTER



Roasted Salmon With Asparagus, Lemon and Brown Butter image

Ready in just 15 minutes, this fast dinner combines silky salmon with a vibrant green medley of asparagus and peas. While the fish roasts, the vegetables and sauce come together in one pan on the stovetop. Thinly slicing the asparagus is the trick to maintaining a crisp texture that complements the tender salmon, while bright lemon juice and zingy capers balance the nutty brown butter sauce. Parsley is used here to finish, but dill or tarragon would also be lovely. Leftover vegetables make a fantastic omelet filling the next day.

Categories     seafood, vegetables, main course

Time 15m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 9

4 (6-ounce) skin-on salmon fillets
2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
Kosher salt and pepper
1 pound asparagus, tough stems trimmed, stalks sliced 1/4-inch-thick on a slight bias (leave tips whole)
4 tablespoons unsalted butter
1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice, plus wedges for serving
2 tablespoons drained capers
1/2 cup thawed frozen peas
1/4 cup coarsely chopped parsley, plus more for garnish

Steps:

  • Heat oven to 450 degrees. Rub salmon all over with 1 tablespoon oil and season with salt and pepper. Arrange skin side-down on a rimmed baking sheet and roast until medium, 8 to 10 minutes.
  • While the salmon roasts, prepare the asparagus: In a large skillet, heat the remaining 1 tablespoon oil over medium-high. Add asparagus, season with salt and pepper and cook, stirring occasionally, until crisp-tender, about 3 minutes. Transfer asparagus to a plate.
  • Reduce heat to medium and add butter to skillet. Cook, stirring, until foam subsides and butter is deep golden brown, 2 to 3 minutes. (Be careful not to burn). Turn off heat and stir in lemon juice, capers, peas, parsley and cooked asparagus. Season with salt and pepper.
  • Divide vegetables among plates. Top with salmon and spoon over any remaining pan sauce. Garnish with parsley and serve with lemon wedges.

Tips:

  • Choose fresh, crisp asparagus spears with tightly closed tips.
  • If using wooden skewers, soak them in water for at least 30 minutes before grilling to prevent them from burning.
  • To save time, you can use pre-cooked smoked salmon.
  • If you don't have Meyer lemons, you can use regular lemons. Just add a bit more sugar to the sauce to balance out the tartness.
  • Serve the bundles immediately after grilling, while the asparagus is still tender and the salmon is warm.

Conclusion:

Asparagus and smoked salmon bundles with Meyer lemon sauce are a delicious and elegant appetizer or main course. They're perfect for a special occasion or a weeknight meal. The asparagus is tender and flavorful, the salmon is rich and smoky, and the Meyer lemon sauce is light and refreshing. This dish is sure to impress your guests!
