Provided by Food Network Kitchen

Categories     main-dish

Time 25m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 7

2 ruby red grapefruit
1 1/2 tablespoons honey
Kosher salt and finely ground black pepper
1 large shallot, finely chopped
2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
3 cups fresh flat-leaf parsley leaves
Four 6-ounce skinless salmon fillets

Steps:

  • Juice 1 grapefruit into a bowl. Cut the peel and pith from the other grapefruit. Remove the flesh from the membranes with a sharp knife, adding any juice to the juice in the bowl. Reserve the grapefruit segments.
  • Boil the reserved juice, honey and 1/4 teaspoon each salt and pepper in a small saucepan until reduced by half and slightly syrupy, 4 to 6 minutes.
  • Toss the grapefruit segments with the shallots, oil, parsley, 1/2 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper.
  • Bring a large, straight-sided skillet with 4 cups of well-salted water to a simmer; the water should cover the salmon. Add the salmon to the skillet and remove from the heat. Let the salmon cook in the hot water until just cooked through, 5 to 7 minutes.
  • Transfer the salmon to paper towels and pat dry. Place on serving plates. Drizzle the salmon with the sauce and top with the grapefruit salad.

EASY POACHED SALMON



Easy poached salmon image

Create a poaching liquor of fennel, bay and parsley for your fish, then serve with an Italian 'green sauce'

Provided by Good Food team

Categories     Dinner, Main course

Time 25m

Number Of Ingredients 15

1 tsp peppercorn
200ml white wine vinegar
1 fennel bulb , thinly sliced
2 bay leaves
few parsley stalks (from the bunch used for the salsa verde)
1kg/2lb 4oz piece British salmon fillet , skin on
few lemon slices
3 or 4 garlic clove
5 anchovy fillets, rinsed if packed in salt
zest and juice 2 unwaxed lemons
large bunch flat-leaf parsley , leaves and stems
large bunch basil , leaves and stems
4 tbsp caper drained and rinsed
6 tbsp rapeseed or extra-virgin olive oil
steamed Jersey Royal potatoes , buttered, and asparagus, to serve

Steps:

  • First make the poaching liquid for the fish. Put the peppercorns, 2 tsp salt, vinegar, fennel, bay leaves and parsley stalks in a saucepan with 2.5 litres of water, and bring to the boil. Boil for 10 mins so all the flavours infuse into the liquid.
  • Make sure that you choose a roasting tin big enough to hold the salmon fillet. Strain the liquid into the empty tin, bring to the boil on the hob, then add the fish, skin-side down, making sure it is covered in liquid. Scatter around the lemon slices, and simmer gently for 1-2 mins until the fish changes colour completely. Cover the surface with a large piece of foil, turn off the heat and leave to cool completely. The fish will cook as the liquid cools.
  • To make the salsa verde, put all the ingredients into the bowl of a food processor, then blitz to make a bright, slightly chunky sauce. Season to taste.
  • Carefully remove the salmon to a serving platter and peel away the skin if you like. Serve with the salsa verde, new potatoes and asparagus.

  • Be careful not to overcook the salmon, or it will become dry and tough.
  • Serve the salmon immediately after cooking, with the grapefruit salsa spooned on top.
