Yield Serves 16

Number Of Ingredients 12

2 (3-lb) whole salmon fillets with skin, any small bones removed with tweezers
500 grams shiro miso (white fermented-soybean paste)
2 tablespoons sake or white wine
For shiitakes with citrus zests
3 tablespoons plus 1/2 cup olive oil
1 lb fresh shiitake mushrooms, stems discarded and caps thinly sliced
3 navel oranges
3 large lemons
1 cup fresh cilantro leaves
1/2 cup (1/2-inch) lengths of fresh chives
1/2 cup fresh orange juice (preferably from juice oranges)
3 tablespoons fresh lemon juice

Steps:

  • Marinate salmon:
  • Line a large shallow (1-inch-deep) baking pan with plastic wrap and arrange salmon fillets, skin sides down, in it. Stir together miso and sake and spread over flesh sides of salmon to completely cover. Cover with plastic wrap and chill 24 to 48 hours.
  • Make shiitakes with citrus zests:
  • Heat 3 tablespoons oil in a 12-inch nonstick skillet over high heat until hot but not smoking, then saut shiitakes with salt to taste, stirring occasionally, until golden brown and nearly dry, 15 to 20 minutes. Transfer to paper towels.
  • While mushrooms are cooking, remove zest from navel oranges and lemons in long, thin strips, preferably with a 5-holed citrus zester.
  • Heat remaining 1/2 cup oil in a 10-inch skillet over moderately low heat until hot and cook zests in 4 batches, stirring frequently, until curly and crisp, about 1 minute.
  • Transfer to paper towels with mushrooms. When mushrooms and zests are cool, transfer to a bowl. Just before serving, toss together with cilantro and chives.
  • Roast salmon:
  • Preheat oven to 500°F.
  • Gently scrape miso from salmon with a rubber spatula and discard miso. Arrange salmon fillets, skin sides down, in 2 well-greased large shallow (1-inch-deep) baking pans (tail ends may hang over ends of pans slightly). Roast salmon in upper and lower thirds of oven, switching position of pans after 10 minutes, until edges begin to brown and salmon is just cooked through, 15 to 20 minutes total.
  • Transfer each salmon fillet to a platter using 2 large metal spatulas. (If fillets break as you're transferring them, simply piece them together on the platter.) Pour orange and lemon juices over salmon and sprinkle with shiitake mixture.

Not a fan. The salmon was dry and the marinade was too salty. I wouldn't recommend this recipe.

Wow, this dish is incredible! The salmon is so moist and flaky, and the miso marinade is bursting with flavor. The citrus and shiitakes add a perfect touch of brightness and acidity. Definitely a keeper!

Pretty good, but not amazing. The salmon was cooked well, but the marinade was a bit bland. I think I'll try adding some extra herbs and spices next time.

Absolutely delightful! The miso marinade gave the salmon a beautiful golden color and a wonderful depth of flavor. The citrus and shiitakes added a perfect balance of tang and umami. I highly recommend this recipe!

Meh. The salmon was a bit overcooked and the marinade was too sweet for my taste. I won't be making this again.

This is now my go-to salmon recipe! The marinade is packed with flavor and the salmon always comes out perfectly cooked. I love serving it with roasted vegetables and rice.

Just okay. The salmon was cooked well, but the marinade lacked flavor. I think I'll try a different miso marinade next time.

Not my favorite. The salmon was a bit dry and the marinade was too salty for my taste. I might try this recipe again with some adjustments, but it's not a must-make for me.

Pretty good! The salmon was flaky and flavorful, but the marinade could have used a bit more depth. Overall, it's a solid recipe that I'd make again with some tweaks.

Excellent dish! The salmon was cooked just right and the citrus and shiitakes added a wonderful flavor profile. I'll definitely be adding this to my regular rotation of recipes.

Underwhelming. The salmon was bland and the marinade didn't do much to elevate the flavor. I'd recommend skipping this one.

Fantastic recipe that packs a flavorful punch and doesn't require a lot of work. I'm not a big fan of salmon, but this dish made me reconsider. Definitely will be making this again!
