Provided by Andrew Zimmern

Categories     main-dish

Time 30m

Yield 2 servings

Number Of Ingredients 15

2 skin-on salmon fillets, about 6 ounces each
Sea salt
Ground white pepper
3 tablespoons safflower or other vegetable oil
1/2 pound asparagus, trimmed
3 large egg yolks
1/2 teaspoon Dijon mustard
Pinch cayenne pepper
1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice, plus more for seasoning
1 tablespoon minced fresh chives, plus more for garnish
1 tablespoon minced fresh dill, plus more for garnish
1 tablespoon minced fresh tarragon, plus more for garnish
1 stick (8 tablespoons) unsalted butter, cubed and at room temperature
Bring a medium saucepan of water to a boil.
Season your salmon with sea salt and white pepper.

Steps:

  • Preheat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the oil and heat for a couple minutes.
  • Salt the boiling water, add the asparagus and cook for 2 minutes. Drain and reserve on a paper towel-lined plate.
  • Add the salmon skin-side up to the pan and cook for 4 minutes. Flip and cook skin-side down until the skin is crisped and salmon is cooked just past medium-rare, about 6 more minutes.
  • Meanwhile, make the hollandaise sauce: Bring a couple inches of water to a simmer in a small saucepan. Whisk together the egg yolks, mustard, cayenne, lemon juice, 1 tablespoon each of the herbs in a medium metal bowl. Set the bowl over the simmering water (do not let the bowl touch the water) and whisk until the hollandaise has thickened, about 2 minutes. You can move the saucepan on and off the heat to regulate the temperature, so the eggs don't cook too quickly.
  • When the mixture is hot and thickened, gradually add the butter in several batches and whisk after each addition until fully incorporated, about 3 minutes. Add sea salt and white pepper to taste.
  • Place the salmon fillets and asparagus on individual serving plates and spoon the hollandaise over the top. Garnish with the remaining minced herbs and serve.

PAN SEARED SALMON RECIPE



Pan Seared Salmon Recipe image

Learn how to pan sear salmon perfectly every time! This 15-minute pan seared salmon recipe (pan fried salmon) is flaky and buttery inside, with a crust on the outside, crispy skin, and herb lemon butter sauce.

Provided by Maya Krampf

Categories     Main Course

Time 15m

Number Of Ingredients 9

4 6-ounce Salmon fillets ((skin on, about 1 inch thick))
1 tsp Sea salt
1/4 tsp Black pepper
1 tbsp Olive oil
6 tbsp Salted butter ((softened))
1 1/2 tbsp Lemon juice
4 cloves Garlic ((minced))
1 tbsp Fresh dill ((chopped))
1 tbsp Fresh parsley ((chopped))

Steps:

  • If your salmon fillets are not descaled, use a knife to gently scrape off the scales.
  • In a small bowl, mash together the butter, lemon juice, garlic, dill, and parsley. Set aside.
  • Use paper towels to pat the salmon fillets completely dry - this will ensure even browning.
  • Heat the olive oil in a large, heavy bottomed nonstick skillet over medium-high heat for 2 minutes, until shimmering and hot. (You can test that it's hot enough by adding a drop of water to the pan; if it sizzles, the pan is ready.)
  • Once the pan is hot, right before you are ready to sear the salmon, season both sides with sea salt and black pepper.
  • Add the fish fillets to the pan in a single layer, skin side down. Use a fish spatula to press down on top of each fillet for the first 10 seconds immediately after adding it to the pan, to prevent curling. Sear, without moving, for 5-6 minutes, until the salmon is 80-90% opaque; only the top will be not quite done.
  • Use the fish spatula to flip the salmon fillets. Working quickly, immediately add the herb butter mixture to the pan near (but not on top of) the salmon. Cook the salmon for about 1 minute, stirring the butter around the salmon as it melts, but without moving the salmon, until the seared salmon internal temperature reaches your desired doneness: 125 degrees F (51 degrees C) for medium rare, 130 degrees F (54 degrees C) for medium, or 140 degrees F (60 degrees C) for well done.
  • Flip salmon over and spoon the lemon butter sauce over it. Remove from the pan immediately to avoid overcooking.

PAN-SEARED ASPARAGUS WITH CRISPY GARLIC



Pan-Seared Asparagus With Crispy Garlic image

Before asparagus got moved to its own botanical family, Asparagaceae, in the early 2000s, it was part of the lily family along with onions, chives, shallots and garlic. It makes sense then, that asparagus and garlic make such a good duo. When cooked with care, both can be mild and sweet (or pungent and bitter when cooked carelessly). To highlight the best of both ingredients, gently fry garlic into chips for a crispy topping, then use the lightly infused oil to sauté the asparagus. Both thin and chubby spears work, as would nearly any other vegetable you like with garlic: broccoli, kale, snap peas, fennel and more.

Categories     vegetables, side dish

Time 10m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 4

4 garlic cloves, thinly sliced
3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
Kosher salt and black pepper
1 bunch asparagus (about 1 pound), ends snapped or trimmed

Steps:

  • Place a paper towel-lined plate next to the stove. In a medium or large skillet, combine the garlic and olive oil over medium-low heat. Cook, shaking the skillet often, until the garlic is very light golden, 3 to 5 minutes. Remove the skillet from the heat, tilt it, then use a slotted spoon to transfer the garlic to the towel-lined plate, leaving the remaining oil in the skillet. Season the crispy garlic with salt.
  • Return the skillet to medium-high heat. Add the asparagus, season with salt and pepper, and cook, shaking often, until bright green, crisp-tender and browned in spots, 4 to 5 minutes. Slide onto a platter, including any oil in the skillet. Top with the garlic chips and season again with salt and pepper.

Tips:

  • Ensure salmon is fresh: Fresh salmon will have a vibrant color and a mild, fishy smell. Avoid salmon that is dull or has a strong odor.
  • Pat salmon dry before cooking: This will help the skin crisp up and prevent the fish from steaming.
  • Use a non-stick skillet: This will help prevent the salmon from sticking and breaking apart.
  • Cook the salmon over medium heat: This will help prevent the fish from overcooking and becoming dry.
  • Baste the salmon with butter: This will help keep the fish moist and flavorful.
  • Serve the salmon immediately: Salmon is best enjoyed when it is hot and flaky.
  • Make sure the hollandaise sauce is warm when you serve it: You can keep it warm by placing it in a double boiler or by microwaving it for a few seconds.
  • Adjust the amount of lemon juice in the hollandaise sauce to taste: Some people prefer a more tart sauce, while others prefer a milder flavor.
  • Serve the asparagus immediately: Asparagus is best enjoyed when it is hot and crispy.

Conclusion:

Pan-seared salmon with no-fail hollandaise and asparagus is a delicious and elegant dish that is perfect for a special occasion. The salmon is cooked to perfection, the hollandaise sauce is rich and creamy, and the asparagus is crisp and flavorful. This dish is sure to impress your guests.
