Steps:
- Season: Pat salmon dry, then sprinkle with salt and pepper.
- Pan-sear: Heat oil in a large non stick skillet over medium high heat. Add salmon, presentation side down, and cook for 3 minutes until golden brown.
- Flip: Turn salmon and cook the other side for another 2 minutes, until the internal temperature registers 49°C / 120°F (for medium-rare, recommended) or until cooked to your taste (Note 5).
- Butter baste: When it's almost cooked, add the butter. Melt, then spoon over the salmon a few times.
- Rest: Remove salmon onto plate, and cover loosely with foil to keep warm.
- Sauté garlic: Add garlic and stir for 20 seconds or until light golden.
- Reduce wine: Add white wine, turn up heat to high. Bring to simmer while stirring base of the pan to dissolve all the golden bits into the sauce. Cook 1 minute or until it most evaporates and the wine-y smell is gone.
- Thicken cream & stock: Add cream and chicken stock, then simmer on medium heat for 2 - 3 minutes until reduced and slightly thickened.
- Add parmesan & herbs: Stir through parmesan (this will thicken sauce more), then the herbs. Taste sauce and see if more salt and pepper is needed.
- Serve: Serve salmon with Creamy Sauce, ensuring there's something on the plate to soak up all that amazing sauce! Mashed Potato rates highly. See above video for list of suggestions (including side salads).

ROASTED SALMON WITH GREEN HERBS
Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 425 degrees.
- Place the salmon fillet in a glass, ceramic, or stainless-steel roasting dish and season it generously with salt and pepper. Whisk together the olive oil and lemon juice and drizzle the mixture evenly over the salmon. Let it stand at room temperature for 15 minutes.
- In a small bowl, stir together the scallions, dill, and parsley. Scatter the herb mixture over the salmon fillet, turning it so that both sides are generously coated with the green herbs. Pour the wine around the fish fillet.
- Roast the salmon for 10 to 12 minutes, until almost cooked in the center at the thickest part. The center will be firm with just a line of uncooked salmon in the very center. (I peek by inserting the tip of a small knife.) Cover the dish tightly with aluminum foil and allow to rest for 10 minutes. Cut the salmon crosswise into serving pieces and serve hot with lemon wedges.

Steps:
- Place all the ingredients for the court bouillon, along with 2 quarts of water, in a large skillet or small fish poacher. Bring to a boil, cover and simmer for 10 minutes. Let it cool to room temperature.
- Submerge the fish in the cooled bouillon. If there is not enough liquid to cover the fish by at least one inch, add water to cover. Return to a boil, lower the heat to a simmer and poach for about 5 minutes. Remove from heat and let stand in liquid about 5 minutes longer before serving. Do not overcook.
- To make the vinaigrette sauce, place the mustard, salt, pepper, vinegar, shallots, garlic and chervil in a blender or a very fast food processor.
- As mixture blends, pour the oil through the opening of the cover. Blend well. If sauce is too thick, add 2 tablespoons water and blend. Adjust the seasonings.
ROASTED SALMON WITH GREEN HERBS
This is a great last-minute dinner. I can pick up the salmon on the way home, and I've usually got some herbs in the garden, and the rest of the ingredients in the pantry. Roasting is so much less stressful than grilling and the salmon stays very moist.

- Cut the salmon crosswise into serving pieces and serve hot with lemon wedges.
Tips:
- Choose the right salmon steaks: Look for salmon steaks that are about 1 inch thick and have a good amount of marbling. This will ensure that the salmon is cooked evenly and stays moist.
- Season the salmon steaks well: Don't be afraid to season the salmon steaks generously with salt and pepper. You can also add other herbs and spices, such as garlic powder, onion powder, or paprika.
- Cook the salmon steaks over medium heat: This will help to prevent the salmon from overcooking and drying out.
- Don't overcrowd the pan: If you're cooking multiple salmon steaks, make sure to not overcrowd the pan. This will prevent the salmon from cooking evenly.
- Cook the salmon steaks until they are just cooked through: The salmon is cooked through when it flakes easily with a fork. Be careful not to overcook the salmon, as this will make it dry and tough.
- Serve the salmon steaks immediately: Salmon steaks are best served immediately after they are cooked. This will ensure that they are at their best flavor and texture.
Conclusion:
Herbed salmon steaks are a delicious and healthy meal that can be prepared in just a few minutes. By following these tips, you can be sure that your salmon steaks will turn out perfectly every time. Enjoy!
