Categories     main-dish

Time 1h15m

Yield 10 to 15 servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

5 cups sliced yellow onions, 1/4-inch thick (3 pounds)
5 cups sliced fennel bulbs, 1/4-inch thick (3 pounds)
1/2 cup good olive oil
3 tablespoons fresh thyme leaves, coarsely chopped
2 tablespoons coarsely chopped fennel fronds
1 orange, zested
2 tablespoons freshly squeezed orange juice
2 teaspoons kosher salt
1 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
1 (10 pound) fresh salmon

Steps:

  • Have the fishmonger cut the head and tail off the salmon and butterfly it, removing all the bones. You should have about 7 pounds of salmon.
  • Preheat the oven to 500 degrees F.
  • Saute the onions and fennel in the olive oil for 10 minutes on medium-high heat, stirring occasionally. Add the thyme leaves, fennel fronds, orange zest, orange juice, salt, and pepper and saute for 5 more minutes, until the onions and fennel are tender. Taste for salt and pepper.
  • Lay the salmon, skin side down, on a cutting board and sprinkle both sides generously with salt and pepper. Spread the fennel filling over half of the salmon. Pull the other half up and over the filling, enclosing it. Tie the salmon every 2 inches with kitchen string to secure the stuffing.
  • Place a sheet pan lined with parchment paper in the oven for 5 minutes to heat it. Carefully transfer the salmon to the hot sheet pan and bake it for exactly 30 minutes (10 minutes for each 1-inch of thickness). Do not overbake!
  • Allow to cool slightly, then remove the strings. To serve, cut into thick slices with a very sharp knife. This salmon is delicious hot or at room temperature.
  • Note: If you're making this in advance, be sure to cool the filling before stuffing the salmon. Refrigerate until ready to roast.

Time 1h

Yield 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 7

2 2 1/2-pound whole salmon fillets
2 1/2 cups white wine
2 tablespoons Pernod

Salt and freshly ground pepper to taste
12 cups stemmed watercress, blanched briefly, refreshed in cold water and drained
3 tablespoons lemon juice

Steps:

Pour half of the wine and half of the Pernod around the salmon in each pan. Scatter half of the sliced fennel over each fillet. Roast until salmon is just cooked through, about 30 minutes, basting from time to time.
  • Using 2 long spatulas, carefully transfer the fillets to platters. Season with salt and pepper. Toss the watercress with the lemon juice, and season with salt and pepper. Arrange the watercress around the salmon. Chop the fennel greens, and sprinkle them over the top.

ROASTED SALMON WITH FENNEL AND LIME



Roasted Salmon With Fennel and Lime image

Fennel is used several ways to flavor these tender fillets of slow-roasted salmon. The seeds are mixed with lime zest and salt to rub all over the fish before cooking, which perfumes it through and through. Then a shaved fennel bulb is used two ways, both roasted in the pan beneath the fillets and tossed with lime juice into a crunchy, slawlike salad to serve on the side. Elegant yet supremely simple, this is fast enough for a weeknight but special enough to share with friends.

Categories     dinner, easy, weeknight, main course

Time 45m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 8

2 limes
1 teaspoon fennel seeds, lightly crushed using a mortar and pestle or the flat side of a knife
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
4 (6- to 8-ounce) skinless salmon fillets
1 large fennel bulb with fronds
Extra-virgin olive oil, for drizzling
6 fresh marjoram or thyme sprigs
Flaky sea salt, for serving

Steps:

  • Heat oven to 325 degrees. Finely grate the zest from 1 lime into a small bowl, and set aside the zested lime. Add fennel seeds, 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt and 1/2 teaspoon pepper to the bowl and toss to combine. Sprinkle mixture all over salmon.
  • Meanwhile, remove the fennel fronds from the bulb and chop up enough to make 1/4 cup. Trim fennel bulb, discarding stalks, and slice bulb thinly using a mandoline or a sharp knife. Spread half the fennel slices in a baking dish in an even layer and drizzle with oil. Arrange salmon on top.
  • Slice the whole, unzested lime into thin rounds and lay the slices on top of the salmon. Tuck marjoram around the salmon and drizzle salmon generously with more olive oil.
  • Roast until salmon is just cooked through, 15 to 20 minutes. (Thinner fillets may take less time, so start checking for doneness at 10 minutes.)
  • Meanwhile, toss chopped fennel fronds and remaining fennel slices with a pinch of salt in a medium bowl. Juice the zested lime and add some of the juice to the fennel, to taste. Drizzle the sliced fennel with olive oil and set aside to serve with the salmon.
  • When the salmon is done, drizzle it with more lime juice and sprinkle with flaky salt. Serve with the fennel salad on top, and the roast fennel on the side, if you like.

Tips:

  • Choose the right salmon: Opt for a fresh, wild-caught salmon fillet or steak that is about 1 inch thick and has a vibrant color.
  • Marinate the salmon: Before cooking, marinate the salmon in a mixture of olive oil, lemon juice, and herbs for at least 30 minutes to enhance its flavor.
  • Cook the salmon properly: To achieve perfectly cooked salmon, bake it in a preheated oven at 400°F for about 12-15 minutes or until it reaches an internal temperature of 145°F. Alternatively, you can pan-sear the salmon on medium heat for 3-4 minutes per side or until cooked through.
  • Make a flavorful glaze: Combine honey, Dijon mustard, and lemon juice to create a delicious glaze that will add sweetness and tang to the salmon.
  • Braise the fennel: Cut the fennel bulbs into thin slices and braise them in a mixture of olive oil, white wine, and chicken broth until tender and caramelized.
  • Serve the salmon and fennel: Place the glazed salmon on a bed of braised fennel and garnish with fresh herbs like dill or parsley. Serve immediately.

Conclusion:

This glazed salmon with braised fennel recipe is a delightful and healthy dish that is perfect for a special occasion or a weeknight meal. The salmon is tender and flaky, while the fennel is sweet and flavorful. The combination of flavors and textures in this dish is sure to impress your taste buds.
