1 pound skin-on fresh salmon fillets
1/2 pound fresh asparagus
3 teaspoons olive oil
salt and pepper to taste
3 tablespoons butter (melted)
zest of one medium lemon
juice of 1/2 medium lemon
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
fresh parsley

Steps:

  • Preheat the grill to medium high heat.
  • Prepare the salmon and asparagus by drizzling with olive oil, and sprinkling with salt and pepper. Be sure to brush the olive oil evenly to cover the entire surface of the salmon.
  • Place the salmon on the grill, skin side up. Add the asparagus to the grill. Cook 6-8 minutes, then carefully flip the salmon using a thin spatula. Rotate the asparagus to ensure that it cooks evenly. Cook the salmon for an additional 5-6 minutes with the skin side down, then remove the salmon and asparagus from the grill.

ROASTED SALMON WITH ASPARAGUS, LEMON AND BROWN BUTTER



Roasted Salmon With Asparagus, Lemon and Brown Butter image

Ready in just 15 minutes, this fast dinner combines silky salmon with a vibrant green medley of asparagus and peas. While the fish roasts, the vegetables and sauce come together in one pan on the stovetop. Thinly slicing the asparagus is the trick to maintaining a crisp texture that complements the tender salmon, while bright lemon juice and zingy capers balance the nutty brown butter sauce. Parsley is used here to finish, but dill or tarragon would also be lovely. Leftover vegetables make a fantastic omelet filling the next day.

Time 15m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 9

4 (6-ounce) skin-on salmon fillets
2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
Kosher salt and pepper
1 pound asparagus, tough stems trimmed, stalks sliced 1/4-inch-thick on a slight bias (leave tips whole)
4 tablespoons unsalted butter
1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice, plus wedges for serving
2 tablespoons drained capers
1/2 cup thawed frozen peas
1/4 cup coarsely chopped parsley, plus more for garnish

Steps:

  • Heat oven to 450 degrees. Rub salmon all over with 1 tablespoon oil and season with salt and pepper. Arrange skin side-down on a rimmed baking sheet and roast until medium, 8 to 10 minutes.
  • While the salmon roasts, prepare the asparagus: In a large skillet, heat the remaining 1 tablespoon oil over medium-high. Add asparagus, season with salt and pepper and cook, stirring occasionally, until crisp-tender, about 3 minutes. Transfer asparagus to a plate.
  • Reduce heat to medium and add butter to skillet. Cook, stirring, until foam subsides and butter is deep golden brown, 2 to 3 minutes. (Be careful not to burn). Turn off heat and stir in lemon juice, capers, peas, parsley and cooked asparagus. Season with salt and pepper.
  • Divide vegetables among plates. Top with salmon and spoon over any remaining pan sauce. Garnish with parsley and serve with lemon wedges.

PENNE WITH BUTTER, SAGE, AND PARMESAN



Penne With Butter, Sage, and Parmesan image

This simple recipe makes a great accompaniment to grilled chicken. The quality of Parmesan really matters here; avoid the stuff in the green container for this preparation!

Provided by D. Todd Miller

Categories     Penne

Time 35m

Yield 4-6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 7

16 ounces penne pasta
1 tablespoon butter
1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil (I use inexpensive olive oil from Spain)
30 fresh sage leaves
1 cup parmigiano-reggiano cheese, freshly grated
fresh ground pepper, to taste
salt, to taste

Steps:

  • Bring a large pot of water to a boil, and salt it. Cook the pasta until it is tender but just short of the point at which you want to eat it.
  • Meanwhile, place butter and olive oil in a saucepan large enough to hold the cooked pasta; turn the heat to medium and add the sage. Cook until the butter and oil begin to brown and the sage shrivels.Turn heat down to low.
  • When pasta is almost done, scoop out a cupful of the cooking water and set aside. Drain the pasta, immediately add it to the sage mixture, and raise the heat to medium.
  • Add 1/2 cup of the reserved water, and stir. Cook about 30 seconds or until some of the water is absorbed and the pasta is perfectly done.
  • Stir in the cheese until the sauce becomes creamy. Thin it with a little water if necessary.
  • Season liberally with pepper, and salt to taste.

PENNE WITH SALMON AND ASPARAGUS



Penne with Salmon and Asparagus image

3 of my most favorite things! This meal comes together fairly quickly, yet is elegant enough to serve to company.

Provided by skat5762

Categories     Penne

Time 45m

Yield 4-6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 (16 ounce) package penne rigate or 1 (16 ounce) package bow tie pasta
3 teaspoons olive oil
1 lb asparagus, trimmed and cut into 2-inch pieces
1/2 teaspoon sea salt
1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
1 large shallot, finely chopped
1/2 cup dry white wine
1 cup chicken broth
1 lb skinless salmon fillet, cut crosswise into thirds then lengthwise into 1/4-inch thick slices
1 tablespoon chopped fresh tarragon

Steps:

  • In a large saucepot, cook pasta as label directs and then drain.
  • Meanwhile, in a 12-inch skillet, heat 2 teaspoons of oil over medium-high heat.
  • Add asparagus, salt and pepper and cook until asparagus is almost tender-crisp, about 5 minutes.
  • Add shallot and remaining 1 teaspoon oil; cook, stirring constantly, two minutes longer.
  • Add wine; heat to boiling over high heat.
  • Stir in broth and heat to boiling.
  • Arrange salmon slices in skillet; cover and cook until just opaque throughout, 2- 3 minutes.
  • Remove skillet from heat and stir in tarragon.
  • In a warmed serving bowl, toss pasta with asparagus mixture.

Tips:

  • Choose the right pasta. Penne is a great choice for this recipe because it holds the sauce well and cooks evenly. However, you can use any type of pasta that you like.
  • Cook the pasta al dente. This means that the pasta should be cooked until it is tender but still has a slight bite to it. Overcooked pasta will be mushy and won't hold the sauce as well.
  • Season the salmon well. Salmon is a mild-flavored fish, so it's important to season it well before grilling. Use a combination of salt, pepper, garlic powder, and paprika to create a flavorful crust.
  • Grill the salmon until it is cooked through. The salmon should be cooked until it is opaque in the center and flakes easily with a fork. Overcooked salmon will be dry and tough.
  • Roast the asparagus until it is tender. Asparagus is a great addition to this dish because it adds a pop of color and flavor. Roast the asparagus until it is tender but still has a slight crunch.
  • Make the lemon butter sauce. The lemon butter sauce is the perfect finishing touch for this dish. It's made with butter, lemon juice, and capers. The sauce is creamy and tangy, and it pairs perfectly with the salmon and asparagus.

Conclusion:

This penne with grilled salmon, asparagus, and lemon butter sauce is a delicious and easy-to-make weeknight meal. The salmon is cooked to perfection, the asparagus is tender and flavorful, and the lemon butter sauce is creamy and tangy. This dish is sure to please everyone at the table.
