ROASTED SALMON WITH CREAMED LEEKS



Roasted Salmon with Creamed Leeks image

Provided by Tyler Florence

Categories     main-dish

Time 3h10m

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 17

1 veal knuckle
1 teaspoon tomato paste
1 pound rutabaga, peeled and quartered
2 carrots, roughly chopped
2 stalks celery, roughly chopped
1 large onion, roughly chopped
6 sprigs fresh thyme
1 bottle decent red wine
Sea salt and freshly ground black pepper
1 /4 cup unsalted butter
3/4 cup extra virgin olive oil
4 leeks, trimmed, and sliced into 1/4-inch circles
3/4 cup heavy cream
1 whole fillet of salmon, about 3 1/2 pounds, scaled, with the skin attached and pin bones removed
2 shallots, minced
1/2 pound fresh porcini mushrooms, cleaned and sliced
1/2 pound fresh chanterelle mushrooms, cleaned and sliced

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F.
  • Place the veal and tomato paste into a deep, oven-proof stock pot. Drizzle with 1/4 cup of olive oil and season with salt and pepper. Place in the oven to roast for 30 minutes. Add the rutabaga, carrots, celery, onion, and 3 sprigs of the thyme to the pan. Continue to roast for 20 minutes. Remove from the oven and place over a medium flame. Pour in the wine and enough water to cover by 3 inches. Let simmer for 1 1/2 hours, skim any impurities that rise to the surface.
  • When reduced by half, remove and strain through a fine sieve. Discard the solids and keep the sauce warm. Season with salt and freshly ground pepper to taste.
  • Meanwhile, heat the butter and 1/4 cup of the olive oil together in a large saute pan over a low flame. Add the leeks and 2 sprigs thyme to the pan and let soften for 5 minutes. Add the cream to the leeks and continue to cook until thick, about 10 more minutes. Stir occasionally. Season with salt and pepper and set aside to cool.
  • Use a sharp knife to split the fish open like a book, making a slice in the salmon fillet lengthwise from collar to tail about halfway between the skin and the bottom, being careful not to slice completely through the opposite side. Open the salmon like a book with the skin side down on the cutting board. Season the inside and outside of the fish with sea salt and freshly ground black pepper and begin stuffing the salmon. Spread the leek mixture evenly over the fish. Then begin rolling the flesh side in towards the skin side like a jellyroll. The salmon should roll up until the skin covers the outside of the fish again. Secure with kitchen string in several places and coat the skin with extra virgin olive oil.
  • Drizzle the remaining olive oil into a large roasting pan and heat over a medium-high flame. Place the salmon in the pan and sear the skin until crispy on all sides, rolling several times in the pan. Carefully place the roasting pan in the oven and roast for five minutes. Slice into 2-inch pinwheels.
  • While the fish is roasting, start the mushrooms. Pour the remaining olive oil into a large saute pan over a medium flame. Add the shallots, remaining sprig of thyme, and mushrooms. Let the mushrooms cook for 10 minutes, until they release their moisture. Stir often and let the moisture evaporate. Add 3/4 cup of the sauce. Let simmer until the mushrooms absorb the sauce and then season with salt and pepper. Serve the mushrooms with a pinwheel of salmon and additional sauce.

ROASTED SALMON WITH LEEKS



Roasted Salmon With Leeks image

This is from Irishabroad.com. Their intro to the recipe is "Leeks, a popular member of the onion family, are one of the oldest Irish vegetables and combine well with everything from potatoes to fish. Because of their distinctive flavor, leeks have been used most often as a flavoring, but more and more they're turning up on their own, often as a kind of bedding or nest for meat or fish fillets.

Time 55m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 8

4 leeks
2 tablespoons butter
1 tablespoon brown sugar
3 carrots, cut into matchsticks
kosher salt to taste
2 pounds salmon fillets
2 teaspoons olive oil
kosher salt and ground black pepper to taste

Steps:

  • Preheat an oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C). Line a baking sheet with foil, and spray with cooking spray.

  • Melt the butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat, and cook and stir the leeks until they have started to soften, about 5 minutes. Sprinkle the leeks with brown sugar, and cook until they turn brown, 15 to 20 minutes. Stir in the matchstick carrots, sprinkle with kosher salt, and cook and stir until the carrots are tender, about 5 minutes.
  • Place the salmon on the prepared baking sheet, rub the fillets with olive oil, and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Roast the salmon until the flesh is opaque and flakes easily but isn't dry, about 10 minutes per 1 inch of thickness. Remove the cooked fillets to plates, and top each fillet with 1/4 of the caramelized leeks and carrots.

SAUTéED SALMON WITH LEEKS AND TOMATOES



Sautéed Salmon With Leeks and Tomatoes image

Here is a fresh and simple way to prepare salmon that is ready in about 20 minutes. Most of that time will be spent preparing the vegetables. You do have to blanch, core and chop the tomatoes, but that is quick work. (We won't tell if you use the canned, diced sort instead. Just drain them first.) Once that's done, sauté the fish and set aside. Throw tomatoes, leeks, lemon juice and freshly ground pepper into the pan and sauté for a quick minute. Spoon over the fish and serve.

Provided by Pierre Franey

Categories     dinner, main course

Time 20m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 8

4 skinless, boneless salmon fillets, about 1 1/2 pounds, at room temperature
Salt to taste
Freshly ground pepper to taste
1 leek, well trimmed
2 or 3 red ripe tomatoes, about 1 1/2 pounds
3 tablespoons olive oil
2 tablespoons lemon juice
2 tablespoons chopped fresh coriander or basil

Steps:

  • If there are any bones in the salmon, pull them out with tweezers and discard. Sprinkle the fish with salt and pepper.
  • Trim off the stem ends of the leek. Cut the leek lengthwise into thin slices. Finely chop the leek. There should be about 1/3 cup.
  • Drop the tomatoes into boiling water and let stand 9 to 12 seconds.
  • Peel and remove the cores. Cut the flesh of the tomatoes into quarter-inch cubes. There should be about 1 1/4 cups.
  • Heat 2 tablespoons of the oil in a nonstick skillet over moderately high heat and add the salmon pieces skinned side up. Cook 2 minutes and then turn the pieces. If you want the salmon medium rare, cook the fish 2 minutes longer. Transfer the fish to a warm platter.
  • Add the remaining oil to the skillet. Add the tomatoes and leek, salt, pepper and lemon juice. Cook about 1 minute. Pour the mixture over the salmon and sprinkle with the coriander or basil.

SLOW-ROASTED SALMON WITH MUSHROOM-LEEK BROTH



Slow-Roasted Salmon With Mushroom-Leek Broth image

This warming dish is inspired by Japanese ochazuke, a comforting bowl of rice with green tea poured on top. Traditionally, the meal may also be finished with grilled fish, sashimi or other toppings, but there is room for variation: You could swap out the hot tea for dashi, broth or other liquids. In this approach, the salmon is slow-roasted - which helps render some of the fat and keeps the fish meltingly tender - while a light shiitake mushroom and leek broth simmers. Divide cooked rice among bowls, spoon the salmon and vegetable broth on top, and finish with fresh ginger and a drizzle of sesame oil.

Categories     dinner, easy, weeknight, seafood, soups and stews, vegetables, main course

Time 35m

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 (1 1/2-pound) piece skin-on or skinless salmon
2 tablespoons sesame oil, plus more for serving
Kosher salt
2 medium leeks, trimmed, white and light greens cut crosswise into 1-inch rounds (about 2 cups)
8 ounces fresh shiitake mushrooms, destemmed and sliced
4 cups chicken broth
2 cups cooked short-grain white rice
Fresh ginger, peeled and cut into very thin matchsticks, for serving

Steps:

  • Heat oven to 325 degrees. Place salmon on a baking sheet. Drizzle salmon with 1 tablespoon sesame oil, sprinkle with salt and roast in the oven until cooked, 25 to 30 minutes. Remove salmon from the oven and let it rest another 5 minutes.
  • While the salmon roasts, heat remaining 1 tablespoon sesame oil in a pot over medium. Add leeks and mushrooms, season with salt, and cook, stirring occasionally, until leeks and mushrooms are lightly golden on the edges, 8 to 10 minutes. (Don't worry if the pan seems dry, the moisture that comes out of the mushrooms and leeks will help steam the vegetables and keep them from burning.)
  • Add chicken broth and simmer until the broth is infused with mushroom flavor and leeks are tender, 20 to 25 minutes. Season with salt.
  • To serve, divide rice among bowls. Scoop salmon by the spoonful onto the rice, and ladle vegetables and broth over salmon and rice. Top with ginger and a drizzle of sesame oil.

Tips:

  • Choose the freshest salmon you can find. Look for fish that is bright pink or orange in color, with firm flesh and no fishy smell.
  • Ask your fishmonger to remove the pin bones from the salmon. This will make it easier to eat.
  • Use a variety of leeks. Large leeks can be cut into quarters lengthwise, while baby leeks can be left whole.
  • Season the salmon well with salt and pepper. You can also add other spices, such as garlic powder, onion powder, or paprika.
  • Roast the salmon and leeks at a high temperature. This will help to create a crispy crust on the salmon and caramelize the leeks.
  • Serve the salmon and leeks immediately. You can garnish with fresh herbs, such as dill or chives.

Conclusion:

Roasted salmon with leeks is a delicious and healthy meal that is perfect for a weeknight dinner. It is easy to make and can be tailored to your own taste preferences. With its tender, flaky salmon and flavorful leeks, this dish is sure to be a hit with your family and friends.
