Salmon Piccata Style image

Roberto's Restaurant, Friday Harbor, Washington. Faced with only four burners in his restaurant -- no oven or grill -- chef Roberto Carrieri asked himself what an Italian chef might do with a piece of salmon and a saute pan. The answer took inspiration from the classic veal piccata, marrying salmon with lemon, capers, and butter. With this lively salmon dish, serve a rich, opulent pinot gris or chardonnay, such as the King Estate Reserve Oregon Pinot Gris. From The Best Northwest Places Cookbook (Volume 1).

Time 20m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 1/2 lbs salmon fillets, preferably a thick piece, skin and pin bones removed
3 tablespoons clarified butter or 3 tablespoons olive oil
1/4 cup all-purpose flour, more if needed
3/4 cup dry white wine
1 lemon, juiced (to taste)
1/2 cup unsalted butter, cut in pieces and chilled
1/4 cup drained capers
salt & freshly ground black pepper
lemon wedge, for serving

Steps:

  • SLICE THE SALMON CROSSWISE into pieces about 1/2 inch thick, using a very sharp knife.
  • HEAT THE CLARIFIED BUTTER in a saute pan or large skillet.
  • While the butter is heating, coat each salmon piece with flour, patting to remove the excess.
  • When the butter is hot, add the salmon slices and cook until lightly browned and just cooked through, about 2 minutes on each side.
  • Transfer the salmon to a plate and set aside.
  • POUR OFF AND DISCARD the excess butter from the pan.
  • Add the wine and lemon juice to the pan and bring just to a boil, stirring to dissolve the flavorful bits stuck to the pan.
  • Boil for 1 to 2 minutes to reduce the liquid slightly.
  • Lower the heat and add the chilled butter and capers, with salt and pepper to taste, gently swirling the pan to melt the butter.
  • Just before the butter is fully incorporated, return the salmon to the pan and continue swirling to coat the salmon in sauce.
  • Divide the salmon among 4 individual warmed plates, spoon the sauce over it, and serve, with lemon wedges on the side for squeezing over the salmon.
