Best 6 Salmon And Spinach Potpie Recipes

SALMON POT PIE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400°F. Let piecrusts stand at room temperature according to package directions.
• In a large saucepan melt butter over medium heat. Add onion, celery, and sweet peppers; cook for 4 to 5 minutes or until vegetables are tender. Stir in flour, thyme, salt, and cayenne pepper. Add broth and milk all at once. Cook and stir until thickened and bubbly. Stir in salmon, frozen peas, and, if desired, parsley.
• Divide salmon mixture among six individual baking dishes, such as 10- to 14-ounce au gratin dishes or ramekins. Unroll piecrusts onto a lightly floured surface. Roll each piecrust into a 13-inch circle. Using a fluted cutter, cut six circles or ovals 1 inch larger than the top of the dishes.
• Place piecrust over hot salmon mixture in each dish. Brush piecrust with egg.
• Bake for 20 to 25 minutes or until crusts are golden brown. Let stand for 10 minutes before serving. If desired, garnish with fresh thyme sprigs.

SALMON POT PIE WITH SWEET POTATO

Steps:

• If preparing the salmon from raw bake it, seasoned, with a drizzle of lemon juice (optional) on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper in a preheated oven (375 F/180 C/gas mark 5) for 15 minutes. Remove from the oven and set aside. Increase the oven temperature to 425 F/ 220 C/gas mark 7 (fan 200 C/gas mark 6).
• Meanwhile place the sweet potato in about 2 cm of salted water, cover, bring to boil then simmer for 10 minutes. Drain and place in the bottom of your pie dish. Scatter the salmon over the top.
• To make the sauce in a saucepan melt the butter, add the corn flour and quickly whisk until smooth. Add some of the milk, turn up the heat and whisk until the sauce thickens, then add the rest of the milk and whisk until the sauce starts bubbling up. Remove from the heat, stir in the fromage frais and mustard and season to taste. Add the raw spinach and stir until well combined and reduced in size. Season to taste and spoon over the salmon.
• Unroll the pastry and place over the pie gently pressing in around the edges to remove any air bubbles. Trim to fit your dish. Brush the pastry lightly with the beaten egg. Bake in the centre of the oven for 25-30 minutes or until golden brown. Remove from the oven, set aside for 5 minutes and serve.

SALMON, SPINACH, AND POTATOES BAKED IN PARCHMENT

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Place a rimmed baking sheet in oven to heat. Cut parchment to size.
• Stir together butter, capers, parsley, and garlic in a small bowl; set aside.
• Divide potato slices between parchment rectangles, layering them in stacks to form a bed (slightly larger than the salmon fillet) to one side of crease. Season with salt and pepper.
• Top each bed of potatoes with one quarter of the shallots followed by half the spinach. Place salmon fillets on top of spinach. Divide remaining shallots evenly between packets. Top each salmon fillet with 2 lemon slices (reserve remaining slices for garnish). Dot with caper butter; season with salt and pepper.
• Fold parchment paper over ingredients, at the crease. Starting with one end of the paper and keeping edges together, make small overlapping pleats the length of the paper, creasing tightly as you go and shaping the edge into an arc. The packet should resemble a half-moon.
• Carefully transfer packets to preheated baking sheet. Bake until packets have puffed, 15 to 18 minutes. Transfer packets to plates. Serve immediately, opening packets at the table. Garnish with remaining lemon slices.

CREAMY GARLIC, LEMON & SPINACH SALMON

Steps:

• Heat oven to 200C/180C fan/gas 6. Pierce the sweet potatoes a few times each and microwave on high for 5 mins until soft (alternatively, bake for 35-40 mins). Keep warm until ready to serve.
• Heat half the oil in a frying pan and lightly brown the salmon on both sides - don't worry about it being cooked through at this point. Transfer the salmon to a plate, wipe out the pan and heat the remaining oil. Cook the garlic for 30 seconds, without letting it brown, then add the spinach, lemon zest and juice and some seasoning. Stir in the mascarpone and 2 tbsp of the milk and cook until the spinach has wilted.
• Tip the spinach mix into an ovenproof dish and top with the lemon slices and salmon fillets. Bake for 5-8 mins until the salmon is cooked through.
• Meanwhile, scoop the sweet potato flesh from the skins and mash with the remaining milk and some seasoning. Serve the sweet potato mash alongside the salmon and creamy spinach.

POTATO, SALMON AND SPINACH PATTIES WITH GARLICKY DILL CREAM

Steps:

• Squeeze as much water from spinach as possible. Place in a bowl and add potatoes, salmon, 1 cup panko, 2 eggs, salt and pepper; mix well to combine.
• Place remaining bread crumbs in a wide, shallow bowl. Place remaining eggs in a second bowl and beat lightly. Place flour in a third bowl.
• Form spinach mixture into 3-inch patties, about 3/4-inch thick. Dip each patty into flour, tapping off excess, then the egg, letting excess drip into bowl. Coat evenly with panko crumbs. Transfer patties to a large baking sheet. Cover with plastic wrap and chill for at least 30 minutes and up to 4 hours.
• Meanwhile, make dill cream: In a mortar and pestle or with the back of a knife, mash garlic and salt together to make a paste. Stir it into the sour cream or yogurt. Add dill and pepper. Taste and adjust seasonings, if necessary. Chill until ready to serve.
• Heat 1/4-inch oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat; if using olive oil, you don't need to use good extra virgin oil. Cook patties in batches, turning once halfway through, until golden and cooked through, about 3 minutes a side. Transfer to a paper towel-lined plate to drain. Serve hot, with a dollop of dill cream.

HONEY LEMON GLAZED SALMON WITH SPINACH SAUTE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 450 degrees F. Grate zest from lemon; set aside. Squeeze 1 tablespoon lemon juice into a small bowl. Add honey and mix well. Line a baking sheet with foil; spray foil with cooking spray. Place salmon fillets on baking sheet. Generously season with black pepper. Drizzle with half of the honey mixture. Roast salmon for 10 to 12 minutes or until fish is lightly browned and flakes easily. Brush on remaining glaze as needed. For a browner glaze, broil on HIGH the last few minutes of cooking.
• Heat oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add onions and garlic and saute 3 to 5 minutes. Add spinach and white wine. Continue to saute until spinach is wilted and most of the liquid has evaporated. Stir in 1 teaspoon lemon zest, crushed red pepper and salt. Divide spinach evenly on top of salmon fillets; sprinkle with pine nuts. Serve immediately.
