Cumin-Roasted Salmon With Cilantro Sauce image

Roasting a whole fillet of fish might seem like a weekend-only treat, but cooking salmon this way is a luxury you should allow yourself on any old Tuesday, as it requires no additional preparation or skill. Be sure to slather the vinegary herb sauce on the still-warm salmon to allow the warm spices and fresh herbs to get to know each other better.

Categories     main-dish

Time 20m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 13

Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
1/2 cup panko
1/2 cup loosely packed fresh flat-leaf parsley leaves and tender stems
1 sprig fresh tarragon leaves, plus 2 tablespoons coarsely chopped fresh tarragon
2 tablespoons olive oil
2 teaspoons brown sugar
2 teaspoons Dijon mustard
3 tablespoons fresh lemon juice, plus lemon wedges for serving
Four 6-ounce skinless center-cut salmon fillets (about 1 1/2 inches thick)
1 pound thin asparagus, trimmed and cut into 1 1/2-inch pieces
2 cups shelled English peas or thawed frozen peas (about 10 ounces)
2 tablespoons unsalted butter
4 radishes, thinly sliced (about 4 ounces) (see Cook's Note)

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F and line a baking sheet with aluminum foil.
  • Bring 8 cups of salted water to a boil in a covered large saute pan. Fill a large bowl with ice water and set a mesh strainer on top of the ice.
  • Pulse the panko, parsley, the leaves from 1 sprig fresh tarragon and 1/4 teaspoon each salt and pepper in a mini food processor until the herbs are coarsely chopped. Drizzle in 1 tablespoon of the oil and pulse until the mixture is combined. Transfer to a plate.
  • Combine the brown sugar, mustard, 1 tablespoon of the lemon juice and remaining 1 tablespoon oil in a small bowl. Brush the tops and sides of the salmon generously with the mustard mixture and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Press a salmon fillet, top-side down, into the panko mixture. Place, panko-side up, on the prepared baking sheet. Repeat with the remaining fillets and bake until the panko is toasted and the salmon is just cooked through, 8 to 10 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, put the asparagus and peas in the saute pan of boiling water and cook until almost crisp-tender, about 3 minutes. Transfer the vegetables to the prepared ice bath with a slotted spoon and let cool, about 1 minute.
  • Meanwhile, heat a second large saute pan over medium-high heat and add the butter, swirling, until melted. Drain the cooled vegetables and add to the pan. Season with salt and pepper. Cook, stirring occasionally, until tender, 3 to 5 minutes. Remove from the heat, add the radishes, the remaining 2 tablespoons lemon juice and 2 tablespoons tarragon. Toss to combine, taste and adjust the seasoning. Serve the salmon with the asparagus salad and a lemon wedge.

Provided by Food Network

Categories     main-dish

Time 30m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 17

Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
1 cup packed basil leaves, plus 1/4 cup finely chopped stems
3 tablespoons olive oil
1 teaspoon plus pinch shichimi togarashi
1 lemon, zested and juiced
1 clove garlic, peeled
1/4 cup panko
Four 6-ounce skin-on salmon fillets
3 tablespoons honey
1/3 cup raw pine nuts
4 cups sugar snap peas, trimmed (about 14 ounces)
1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
1 tablespoon rice wine vinegar
2 teaspoons fish sauce
1 shallot, minced
2 tablespoons vegetable oil
1/2 cup flat-leaf parsley leaves

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F. Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil. Bring a medium pot of heavily salted water to a boil. Fill a medium bowl with ice water and set aside.
  • Add the basil leaves, 2 tablespoons olive oil, 1 teaspoon shichimi togarashi, lemon zest, garlic, 1 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of pepper to a food processor and process until finely chopped, scraping down the sides of the bowl as needed. Transfer to a small bowl and fold in the panko.
  • Place the salmon fillets skin-side down on the prepared baking sheet and brush the tops with 2 tablespoons honey. Press the breadcrumb mixture all over the tops of each fillet (about 1 tablespoon per fillet). Bake until the breadcrumbs are golden brown and the salmon is firm and flakes easily when pressed, 12 to 15 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, place the pine nuts in a single layer in a small nonstick skillet and cook, shaking frequently, until they're golden brown and smell nutty, 3 to 5 minutes. Transfer to a plate to cool.
  • Add the sugar snap peas to the boiling water and cook until very bright green and crisp tender, 1 to 2 minutes. Use a slotted spoon to immediately transfer the peas to the ice water to stop the cooking. Drain the snap peas, then cut them into thirds on a deep bias.
  • Put the lemon juice, mustard, vinegar, fish sauce, shallots, 1/4 teaspoon salt, a few grinds of pepper, the remaining 1 tablespoon of honey and the remaining pinch of shichimi togarashi in a large bowl. Use an immersion blender to mix and drizzle in the vegetable oil and the remaining 1 tablespoon of olive oil until all the ingredients are emulsified.
  • Fold in the snap peas until coated. Fold in the parsley leaves, toasted pine nuts and basil stems and serve alongside the salmon.

CUMIN-CRUSTED SALMON SALAD



CUMIN-CRUSTED SALMON SALAD image

Categories     Salad     Fish     Dinner     Healthy

Number Of Ingredients 26

INGREDIENTS:
Salad:
2 ounces sliced almonds
5 cups mixed greens
1 (15 ounce) can black beans,
drained and rinsed
1 cup scallions, sliced
1 can mandarin orange segments
1/2 cup feta cheese, crumbled;
OR goat cheese, or baby mozzarella
1 cup cilantro, chopped
Dressing:
2 tablespoons orange juice
concentrate
4 tablespoons olive oil 1/2 teaspoon cumin
1 1/2 tablespoons balsamic
vinegar
2 garlic cloves, crushed
1/4 teaspoon salt
Cumin-Crusted Salmon:
1 1/2 tablespoons cumin
2 teaspoons paprika
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon freshly ground
black pepper
1 can salmon, (skin and bone removed)

Steps:

  • DIRECTIONS: 1. Heat a non-stick skillet, add nuts and stir until toasty, about 5 minutes. In a large bowl, place all salad ingredients (reserve half of the cilantro and half of the nuts for garnish). 2. In a separate bowl, stir dressing ingredients together. 3. Place spices in non-stick skillet with salmon on top; sprinkle more spices on salmon. Sear until crusty. 4. Toss salad and dressing; divide on plates. Top with salmon and reserved cilantro and nuts.

Tips:

  • Choose fresh, high-quality salmon: Look for wild-caught salmon if possible, as it has a lower mercury content and a richer flavor.
  • Make sure the salmon is cooked through before serving: The internal temperature should reach 145°F (63°C) when measured with a food thermometer.
  • Use a light hand with the cumin: A little goes a long way, so start with a small amount and add more to taste.
  • Serve the salad immediately after it is made: The salmon will start to dry out if it sits for too long.
  • Enjoy the salad as a main course or a side dish: It's also great for lunch or dinner.

Conclusion:

This cumin-crusted salmon salad is an easy and delicious way to enjoy salmon. The cumin gives the salmon a smoky, slightly spicy flavor that pairs perfectly with the fresh, crisp salad. This salad is perfect for a light and healthy lunch or dinner, and it's also a great way to use up leftover salmon.
