Number Of Ingredients 13

5 teaspoons fresh tangerine or orange juice
2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
5 large egg yolks
2 tablespoons water
1/4 teaspoon finely grated tangerine or orange zest
1/4 teaspoon white-wine vinegar
Coarse salt
Pinch of cayenne pepper
1 1/2 cups (3 sticks) unsalted butter, melted
1 center-cut salmon fillet, skinned (about 2 pounds)
Freshly ground white pepper
1 tangerine or orange, thinly sliced into rounds
1 lemon, thinly sliced into rounds

Steps:

  • Combine tangerine and lemon juices in a bowl. Whisk egg yolks and water in a heatproof bowl, and place over a pan of simmering water. Whisk until mixture foams and begins to thicken, 1 minute. Add half the citrus juice. Cook, whisking, until thickened slightly.
  • Puree yolk mixture, remaining citrus juice, the zest, vinegar, 1/4 teaspoon salt, and the cayenne in a blender. Reduce speed to low, and add butter in a slow, steady stream. Set sauce aside.
  • Cut salmon in half lengthwise, and then cut each half crosswise into 3 pieces (about 2 inches wide). Gently pound between parchment so that all pieces are about 1/4 inch thick. (Salmon can be covered and refrigerated 3 hours).
  • Heat a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Season skinned side of salmon with salt and white pepper. Working in batches if needed, cook for 30 seconds. Flip and cook to the desired doneness, about 30 seconds for medium-rare. Place on a platter. Spoon sauce on top; garnish with citrus rounds. Serve remaining sauce on the side.

This recipe was a bit too complicated for my liking. I think I'll stick to simpler salmon recipes in the future.

I loved the combination of flavors in this dish. The salmon was flaky and moist, the sauce was creamy and tangy, and the asparagus was perfectly cooked. I will definitely be making this recipe again.

The sauce was a bit too rich for my taste, but the salmon was cooked perfectly. I'll try using a lighter sauce next time.

I found the sauce to be a bit too tangy for my taste, but the salmon was cooked perfectly. I'll try using less lemon juice next time.

The salmon was a bit overcooked for my taste, but the sauce was delicious. I'll try cooking the salmon for a shorter amount of time next time.

I was a bit skeptical about the tangerine-lemon hollandaise sauce, but it turned out to be amazing! It was creamy and tangy, and it really brought out the flavor of the salmon. I'll definitely be using this sauce again.
