Best 7 Poached Salmon With Lima Beans And Green Goddess Dressing Recipes

TRADITIONAL POACHED SALMON

Steps:

• Drizzle the olive oil over the salmon fillets and season with some sea salt and white pepper. Set aside.
• Fill a high-sided large skillet one-third of the way up with water. Add the wine and lemon halves. Bring to a low simmer, add the salmon and let cook until firm to the touch, 5 to 7 minutes for medium. For well-done salmon, cook for 10 minutes.
• Serve garnished with the lemon wedges and parsley.

LEMON SALMON WITH LIMA BEANS

Steps:

• Slice 1 lemon half into 4 thin rounds and set aside. Grate the zest of the other lemon half and set aside; squeeze some of the juice into a bowl and mix in the yogurt and 1/4 teaspoon paprika. Preheat the broiler. Heat 1 teaspoon olive oil in a medium saucepan over medium heat. Add the garlic, oregano and red pepper flakes and cook until the garlic is golden, about 2 minutes. Add the lima beans, 1 1/2 cups water and the lemon zest; partially cover the pan, bring to a simmer and cook until the beans are tender, about 20 minutes. Season with salt and pepper. Remove from the heat and stir in the parsley, 1 tablespoon of the yogurt mixture and the remaining 1 teaspoon olive oil. Meanwhile, mix the remaining 1/2 teaspoon paprika, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and pepper to taste in a small bowl. Sprinkle all over the salmon; arrange on a foil-lined baking sheet and top each fillet with a lemon slice. Broil until just cooked through, 6 to 8 minutes. Serve with the lima beans and top with the yogurt mixture.

BLACKENED SALMON WITH LIMA BEAN SMASHED POTATOES

Steps:

• Put the potatoes in a saucepan; cover with cold water by 1 inch and season with salt. Bring to a boil, then reduce the heat to medium and simmer 8 minutes. Add the lima beans; simmer until the potatoes are fork-tender, 4 minutes. Reserve 1/4 cup cooking water, then drain and return to the pot. Add the sour cream, 1 tablespoon butter and the reserved cooking water. Season with salt and pepper and smash.
• Combine the paprika, thyme, cayenne and 1 teaspoon salt in a bowl; sprinkle on both sides of the salmon. Heat the vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the salmon and cook until browned and just cooked through, 3 to 4 minutes per side.
• Stir the scallions into the potatoes and top with the remaining 1 tablespoon butter. Serve with the salmon and lime wedges.

KETO POACHED SALMON WITH GREEN GODDESS SAUCE

Steps:

• For the sauce: Combine the oil, scallions and garlic in a small unheated skillet. Turn the heat to low and cook undisturbed until the mixture begins to sizzle, about 30 seconds. Remove from the heat. Transfer the mixture to a small food processor. Add the parsley, sour cream, lemon juice, mayonnaise, tarragon, dill and anchovy and pulse to mix, then blend until smooth. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
• For the salmon: Sprinkle the fish all over with 1 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper. Add the dill and lemon slices to a large skillet with high sides. Pour in the wine and 1 cup water, then bring to a boil. Reduce to a simmer and place the fish on top of the lemon and dill. Cover and poach until the fish is just cooked through and flakes easily when lightly pressed with a fork at its thickest part, depending on the thickness of the fish, 8 to 12 minutes.
• Just before serving, warm the oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Pat the salmon skins dry with a clean towel, then add to the skillet and sprinkle with a pinch of salt. Cook, turning with tongs, until lightly browned and beginning to crisp, 4 to 6 minutes. (The skin will crisp up further as it cools.) Spread 1 to 2 tablespoons of the sauce on 4 plates. Top each with a piece of salmon. Garnish each with a salmon skin "chip" and serve with the remaining sauce on the side.

GREEN GODDESS SALMON WITH POTATOES AND SNAP PEAS

Steps:

• Heat the broiler to high with the rack about 6 inches from the broiler. On a sheet pan lined with a silicone mat or aluminum foil, toss the potatoes with 2 tablespoons oil, season with salt and pepper and spread out in an even layer. Broil until crispy and brown and just getting tender, about 10 minutes, turning with a spatula halfway through.
• Meanwhile, rub the remaining 2 tablespoons oil on both sides of the fish and season generously with salt and pepper. Remove the sheet pan from the oven, move the potatoes to the edges and nestle the fish between them, skin-side up. Broil until the skin is crispy, about 5 minutes. With a large spatula, flip the fish and continue to broil until the fish flakes easily but the center is still pink and glossy, 3 to 5 minutes. (If the potatoes are done after cooking the fish on the first side, pull them from the oven and transfer to a large serving bowl. If not, leave them until the fish is cooked to your desired doneness.)
• While the fish cooks, combine the parsley, mixed herbs, anchovy, garlic, lemon zest, yogurt and mayonnaise in a blender and purée until thick and uniformly green. Taste and season with salt and pepper as needed.
• Remove the fish and potatoes from the oven. Scrape the potatoes into a large bowl and toss with the snap peas and cucumbers; squeeze half the lemon over the top, season with salt and pepper and toss again. Cut the remaining lemon half into 4 wedges.
• Transfer the fish and vegetables to a platter and serve the dressing on the side; or divide the fish and vegetables among four plates and dollop with dressing. Sprinkle with dill and serve with lemon wedges.
