Time 20m

Number Of Ingredients 14

1 tablespoon olive oil
1 tablespoon unsalted butter
21 oz (600 g) salmon filets (skin on or off)
Salt and pepper, (to taste)
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1/2 teaspoon mild paprika
1 tablespoon unsalted butter
4 cloves garlic, (minced)
3/4 cup low-sodium chicken stock or broth
1 cup heavy cream**, ((or half and half))
1 heaped tablespoon Dijon mustard, ((adjust to your taste))
2 tablespoons fresh chopped parsley
1 pound (500 g) asparagus stalks, ((woody ends trimmed))
Lemon wedges, (to serve)

Steps:

  • Pat salmon dry with paper towel. Season salmon all over with salt, pepper, garlic powder and paprika.
  • Heat oil and butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat until hot. Sear flesh-side down first (skin-side up), for 5 minutes or until cooked halfway up. Flip and cook for a further 3-4 minutes or until cooked to your liking. (Cook in batches of two if needed to avoid overcrowding your pan.)
  • Once cooked, remove salmon from the pan and set aside. KEEP all of the flavourful juices in the pan.
  • Return pan to medium-high heat and melt the butter in the juices. Sauté garlic until fragrant (about 30 seconds), then pour in the stock. Allow liquid to reduce to half while scraping browned bits from the bottom of the pan.
  • Reduce heat to low-medium heat. Whisk in the Dijon mustard, cream and parsley. Add the asparagus and bring to a gentle simmer, while stirring occasionally, until asparagus is cooked and sauce has thickened. Season with salt and pepper to your taste.
  • Add the salmon back into the pan, sprinkle with parsley, taste test sauce and adjust salt and pepper, if needed.
  • Serve.

This Creamy Dijon Sauce is light and flavorful accompaniment to dishes like savory bread pudding, crepes or my recipe for Ham and Gruyere Baked French Toast.

Provided by Mia

Categories     Sauce/Condiments

Time 13m

Number Of Ingredients 9

2 Tablespoons Butter
2 Tablespoons All-Purpose Flour
1/2 Cup Chicken Broth
1/2 Cup Whole Milk
2 Tablespoons Dijon Mustard
1/4 teaspoon Kosher Salt PLUS
1/8 teaspoon Kosher Salt
1/8 teaspoon Ground White or Black Pepper
Chopped Fresh Chives for Garnish (Optional)

Steps:

  • Over medium heat, melt the butter in a small saute or sauce pan.
  • Whisk in flour and cook for about 1 minute.
  • Reduce the heat to low, and gradually whisk in the milk. The mixture will become very thick.
  • Continue cooking over low heat and slowly whisk in the broth.
  • Once the mixture is combined and smooth, raise the heat source to medium-low and bring up to a low boil.
  • As soon as the first signs of bubbles appear, reduce the heat back down to low and simmer the sauce for 3 minutes, while whisking.
  • Whisk in the mustard, salt and pepper and simmer just until heated through, about 1 minute.
  • If the sauce becomes too thick, you can add a tablespoon of broth one tablespoon at a time in order to thin until desired thickness is acquired.

Time 5m

Yield 6-8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 6

3/4 cup mayonnaise
1/4 cup Dijon mustard
1 garlic clove, minced
3 tablespoons honey
1/4 teaspoon pepper
1/8 teaspoon salt

Steps:

  • Combine all ingredients.
  • Chill.
  • Serve.

Tips:

  • When choosing sour cream, look for one that is full-fat and has a tangy flavor. This will help to create a rich and creamy sauce.
  • If you don't have Dijon mustard, you can substitute yellow mustard. However, Dijon mustard has a more complex flavor that will add more depth to the sauce.
  • If you want a spicier sauce, add a pinch of cayenne pepper or red pepper flakes.
  • If you want a sweeter sauce, add a tablespoon of honey or maple syrup.
  • This sauce can be made ahead of time and stored in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. When you're ready to serve, let it come to room temperature for 30 minutes before serving.

Conclusion:

This creamy Dijon dipping sauce is the perfect accompaniment to any appetizer or snack. It's also great for dipping chicken wings, vegetables, or even french fries. The tangy flavor of the Dijon mustard is balanced out by the richness of the sour cream, making it a delicious and versatile sauce that everyone will love.
