POTATO CHIP CRUSTED SALMON



Potato Chip Crusted Salmon image

This was from the Tony Danza show. I made it LOVED it, and thought it was a great and easy recipe to share. You can reduce the calories by using baked or WOW(olestra) chips, but it comes out a bit better with the Kettle Cooked Chips, as in recipe

Categories     < 30 Mins

Time 30m

Yield 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 7

3 lbs salmon
1 dash fresh ground black pepper
1 dash salt
5 1/2 ounces bag kettle-cooked potato chips
1/2 lime, zest of
1/3 cup chopped fresh dill
2 tablespoons olive oil

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 400°F Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil.
  • Lay the side of salmon, skin side down, in the center of the baking sheet. Season it lightly with salt and pepper.
  • Crush the potato chips, lime zest and dill together in a bowl until the chips resemble coarse crumbs. Mix in 2 tablespoons of oil until incorporated.
  • Coat the salmon with a thin, even layer of potato chip crumbs. Pat them on the fish gently so they stay put.
  • Bake for about 20-25 minutes, or until the chip coating is nicely browned. Use 2 spatulas to transfer the salmon to a serving platter, putting one at either end and lifting them up together so the salmon is in one piece. Lay it gently on the serving platter and put a fork and a knife on the table by the platter so that people can serve themselves. You can also serve the salmon right on the baking sheet-there's no shame in that, either.

WHISKEY-GLAZED SALMON WITH SALT-CRUSTED POTATOES



Whiskey-Glazed Salmon With Salt-Crusted Potatoes image

The savory snap of baby potatoes crusted in salt is just what you want with the subtle sweetness of this fish's glaze. The fish and the potatoes cook and come together at the same time in this fast meal. To achieve silky salmon without turning on the oven, gently cook it in a shallow pool of sauce that thickens to a syrup as it simmers. The potatoes, prepared using a technique from the Canary Islands, simply boil in generously salted water, then finish cooking with a splash of the liquid. When it evaporates, the salt that remains crusts onto the spuds. Shaking the pan vigorously helps the salt coat the potatoes evenly and sheds excess crystals. Serve with a salad or, after the glaze is scraped onto the fish, throw baby spinach into the still-hot skillet and stir to just wilt.

Time 20m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 1/2 pounds baby gold potatoes, scrubbed
2 tablespoons coarse sea salt or kosher salt
2 tablespoons granulated sugar
6 tablespoons whiskey
2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
4 (5-ounce) salmon fillets
Salt and black pepper

Steps:

  • Make the potatoes: The potatoes should all be the same small size, about 1 inch in diameter, so cut any larger ones in halves or quarters. Place in a large saucepan with 4 cups water and add the salt. Bring to boil over high heat, then continue boiling until a paring knife slides through a potato easily, about 15 minutes.
  • About 5 minutes before the potatoes are tender, start the salmon: Combine the sugar, whiskey and Worcestershire sauce in a large skillet, and bring to a boil over medium-high heat, stirring to dissolve the sugar. Season the salmon with salt and pepper, then add to the skillet skin side down (or the flat side if the fillets are skinless). Reduce the heat to medium-low and simmer until the salmon becomes opaque about halfway up the sides, about 5 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, carefully tip the saucepan into the sink to pour out all but about 1/4 cup cooking water, keeping the potatoes in the pan. Return the saucepan to the stove with the potatoes and a thin layer of cooking water at the bottom, and set over high heat. Cook, shaking the pan often, until the liquid evaporates and the potatoes are crusted in a fine film of salt, about 5 minutes. The pan should be extremely dry and coated in salt and the potatoes will sound crackly when shaken.
  • Flip the salmon and continue cooking until just opaque from top to bottom and a paring knife slides through with almost no resistance, about 5 minutes longer. If you started with a 1-inch-thick fillet, this will be medium-rare. The timing will vary depending on the thickness of your fish and your preferred doneness. If you'd like, use tongs to peel off and discard the skin if there is any. The glaze should have thickened and be syrupy.
  • Divide the potatoes and salmon among serving plates and drizzle any glaze from the pan over the fish.

POTATO CRUSTED SALMON (MICHAEL SMITH)



Potato Crusted Salmon (Michael Smith) image

Michael Smith is a Canadian chef who encourages you to make his recipes your own. This recipe is supposed to have the horseradish in it, but some people don't like the heat so I made it optional. I like the horseradish in it. Michaeld intended this to be served with Recipe #409358. Enjoy!

Categories     Potato

Time 25m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 5

2 russet potatoes, baked and chilled
2 tablespoons horseradish (optional, but recommended!)
2 tablespoons oil
salt and pepper
4 (6 ounce) salmon fillets

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 375°F.
  • Grate potatoes through the large holes of a box grater into a medium sized bowl.
  • Stir in horseradish, oil and salt and pepper mixing well.
  • Pat crust onto top surface of filets and place in a baking pan or on a baking sheet.
  • Bake until salmon is cooked through and the crust is golden and crispy, about 15 minutes.

Tips:

  • Choose high-quality salmon fillets: Fresh, firm fillets with vibrant color and no fishy odor are ideal.
  • Use Yukon Gold or Russet potatoes: These varieties provide a good balance of starch and moisture, resulting in a crispy crust.
  • Shred the potatoes finely: This ensures they cook evenly and form a cohesive crust.
  • Season the potato mixture well: Use a combination of salt, pepper, garlic powder, and paprika for a flavorful crust.
  • Add some moisture to the potato mixture: This can be in the form of an egg, milk, or melted butter. This helps bind the mixture and prevents it from becoming too dry.
  • Press the potato mixture firmly onto the salmon fillets: This ensures good adhesion and prevents the crust from falling off during baking.
  • Bake at a high temperature: This creates a crispy crust and helps cook the salmon quickly.
  • Keep an eye on the salmon while baking: Cooking times can vary depending on the thickness of the fillets, so check for doneness a few minutes before the recommended time.

Conclusion:

Baked salmon fillets in potato crust are a delicious and versatile dish that can be enjoyed for lunch or dinner. The crispy potato crust adds a delightful textural contrast to the tender and flavorful salmon, making it a hit with both adults and children. Whether you're looking for a quick and easy weeknight meal or a special occasion dish, this recipe is sure to please. Serve it with your favorite sides, such as roasted vegetables, mashed potatoes, or a simple salad.
