Warm Salmon and Potato Salad with Creamy Dill Dressing image

Provided by Sara Lynn Cauchon

Categories     main-dish

Time 45m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 11

One 12-ounce salmon fillet
Salt and pepper, to taste
4 cups baby potatoes, quartered
1/2 pound green beans, trimmed and halved
1/3 cup plain Greek yogurt
2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
2 tablespoons chopped fresh dill
1 small lemon, zested and juiced
1 garlic clove, grated
4 cups arugula
2 tablespoons capers

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Place the salmon on a parchment-lined baking sheet and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Bake until the salmon is cooked through, about 15 minutes. Use a fork to flake the salmon and set it aside.
  • At the same time, steam the potatoes in a steamer basket over 2 inches of boiling water until they become fork tender, 13 to 15 minutes. Remove the potatoes and set aside. To the same steamer basket, add the green beans and steam until tender crisp, about 5 minutes. (Check to ensure there is enough water in the bottom pot at all times.)
  • In the meantime, whisk the yogurt, Dijon mustard, dill, lemon zest and juice, garlic and some salt and pepper in a small bowl until well combined. Set it aside.
  • In a large serving dish, arrange the cooked potatoes and green beans on a bed of arugula. Top with the flaked salmon and capers and then pour on the dressing.
  • Serve immediately or store in the refrigerator for 2 to 3 days. (If you're planning on enjoying this the next day, do not add the arugula until just before eating.)

Provided by Martha Stewart

Categories     Food & Cooking     Ingredients     Seafood Recipes     Salmon Recipes

Time 25m

Number Of Ingredients 8

Coarse salt and freshly ground pepper
1 skin-on salmon fillet (about 1 1/4 pounds), preferably wild
1 pound baby potatoes, such as Yukon Gold
2/3 cup buttermilk
1/3 cup mayonnaise
3 tablespoons coarsely chopped fresh dill
1 large cucumber (about 3/4 pound), peeled and thinly sliced
Lemon wedges, for serving

Steps:

  • Bring 1 1/4 inches of water to a boil in a large straight-sided skillet. Generously season with salt. Add salmon, skin-side down; return to a boil. Remove from heat, cover, and let stand until salmon is just opaque throughout, 15 to 17 minutes. Use a slotted spatula to transfer salmon to a plate, skin-side up.
  • Meanwhile, bring 2 inches of water to a simmer in a large pot fitted with a steamer basket (or a metal colander). Place potatoes in basket, cover, and steam until easily pierced with the tip of a sharp knife, 12 to 15 minutes.
  • Whisk together buttermilk and mayonnaise in a bowl, stir in dill, and season with salt and pepper. Remove skin from salmon; flake fish into large pieces. Divide salmon, potatoes, and cucumber among plates; drizzle with dressing, and serve with lemon wedges.

Categories     main-dish

Time 25m

Yield 4 servings plus 3 reserved for

Number Of Ingredients 16

2 pounds red skinned small new potatoes
Coarse salt
1 tablespoon butter
3 tablespoons chopped fresh mint, a handful of leaves, finely chopped
1 teaspoon sugar
7 (6-ounce) portions fresh Norwegian salmon fillets, individually packaged in fish department or market
2 cups dry white wine
2 to 3 cups water
1 bay leaf, fresh or dried
Bouquet of fresh tarragon, dill and parsley sprigs, tied with kitchen string
1 bundle fresh watercress, washed and trimmed
1/2 English or seedless cucumber, thinly sliced
4 slices pumpernickel bread, quartered
2 cups sour cream
2 tablespoons prepared Dijon mustard
1/4 cup chopped herbs, a few sprigs each tarragon, dill and parsley

Steps:

  • Place potatoes in a pot and cover with water. Cover pot and bring water to a boil. Add a generous amount of coarse salt to the water, a few healthy pinches. Reduce heat to medium and boil covered until tender, about 12 minutes.
  • Place salmon fillets in a large deep skillet or divide between 2 skillets if you do not have a pan large enough to accommodate all 8 portions. The additional portions will provide the cooked salmon for salmon cakes on another night. Pour wine and water into the pan so that just the very top of the salmon is exposed. Add a bay leaf and a bouquet of a few sprigs each fresh tarragon, dill and parsley to the pan and set it down into the liquid. Place the pan or pans over high heat and bring the liquid to a boil. Reduce heat to medium low and cover the pan. Poach salmon for 10 minutes or, until fish is firm and opaque.
  • Drain your potatoes and return them to the hot pot. Add butter to the pot and turn potatoes to coat them lightly in the butter. Sprinkle the mint and sugar over the potatoes.
  • Combine sour cream with Dijon mustard and chopped herbs in a small bowl.
  • Remove salmon from the cooking liquid with a thin spatula. Reserve 3 portions of the salmon and place in the refrigerator or freeze for salmon cakes meal.
  • To serve, place a piece of salmon on a plate and garnish with sauce. Serve pumpernickel squares, watercress and sliced cucumber along side the fish. Add minted red potatoes to the plate and serve.

EASY POACHED SALMON



Easy Poached Salmon image

Cook this simple poached salmon at the beginning of the week and use it in salads and sandwiches or as a main course on busy weeknights.

Provided by Martha Stewart

Categories     Food & Cooking     Ingredients     Seafood Recipes     Salmon Recipes

Yield Serves 4

Number Of Ingredients 8

4 5-oz wild salmon fillets, skin on
1 clove garlic, crushed
1 carrot, sliced
2 sprigs fresh thyme
1 bay leaf
3 black peppercorns
1/2 cup white wine
Coarse salt

Steps:

  • In a small pan, arrange fillets in a single layer. Cover with water until fillets are just submerged. Remove fillets and set aside. Add garlic, carrot, herbs, peppercorns, and wine. Bring to a boil, season with salt, then turn off heat; add fillets skin-side down, and cook, covered, until slightly underdone in the center, about 10 minutes per inch of thickness. Reserve the poaching liquid and, once cool, combine with fillets.

Tips:

  • Choose the freshest salmon you can find. Fresh salmon will have a vibrant color and a firm texture. Avoid salmon that is dull in color or has a slimy texture.
  • Use a large pot for poaching the salmon. This will help to ensure that the salmon cooks evenly.
  • Bring the poaching liquid to a simmer before adding the salmon. This will help to prevent the salmon from overcooking.
  • Cook the salmon for 8-10 minutes per inch of thickness. This will ensure that the salmon is cooked through but still moist.
  • Remove the salmon from the poaching liquid and let it cool slightly before serving. This will help to prevent the salmon from breaking apart.
  • Serve the salmon with your favorite sides, such as roasted potatoes, steamed vegetables, or a salad.

Conclusion:

Poached salmon is a healthy and delicious meal that is perfect for any occasion. It is easy to make and can be served with a variety of sides. By following these tips, you can make sure that your poached salmon turns out perfect every time.
