STUFFED SALMON WITH BALSAMIC BUTTER SAUCE



Stuffed Salmon with Balsamic Butter Sauce image

Provided by Food Network

Categories     main-dish

Time 50m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 16

1 pound jumbo lump crab meat
1 tablespoon mayonnaise
1 teaspoon fresh lemon juice
1 teaspoon dry mustard
1 teaspoon seafood seasoning, such as Old Bay
1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
1 pound skinless Atlantic salmon or wild salmon fillet, cut into 4 pieces
1/4 pound Brie cheese, sliced
Salt and freshly ground pepper
1 bunch asparagus, trimmed
Salt and pepper
1 1/4 cups balsamic vinegar
1 1/2 tablespoons minced shallots
1 stick (8 tablespoons) salted butter, cut into 4 pieces
1 tablespoon olive oil
Wild rice, for serving

Steps:

  • For the crab cake mix: Gently mix the crab meat with the mayonnaise, lemon juice, mustard, seafood seasoning and Worcestershire sauce in a large bowl. Form four 4-ounce crab cakes.
  • Preheat the oven to 475 degrees F.
  • For the salmon: Make a small vertical pocket in each piece of salmon. Place a slice of Brie on the bottom of the pocket, top with 1 crab cake and another slice of Brie.
  • Place the salmon in a large baking dish and add enough water to reach one-quarter of the way up the side of the salmon. Bake until pale and cooked through, 12 to 15 minutes.
  • For the asparagus and sauce: Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Cook the asparagus just until crisp tender and bright green. Drain and plunge into an ice bath to stop the cooking.
  • Put the vinegar and shallots in a saute pan and cook over medium heat until vigorously bubbling and reduced by three-quarters, about 2 minutes. Add a pinch salt and pepper, reduce the heat to low and slowly stir in the butter. If the sauce is too thin, continue to simmer over very low heat until desired thickness.
  • In a second saute pan, heat the oil over medium-high heat until hot. Add the asparagus, season with salt and pepper and cook until warmed through. (The asparagus is already cooked so don't saute it too long.)
  • Serve the salmon and asparagus over wild rice. Spoon over the sauce.

Categories     Main Dish Recipes     Seafood Main Dish Recipes     Crab

Time 30m

Yield 2

Number Of Ingredients 12

2 lobster tails, split along the center top
2 teaspoons butter, melted
15 buttery round crackers, crushed
½ cup jumbo lump crabmeat
¼ cup clarified butter
1 tablespoon chopped fresh parsley leaves
1 teaspoon seafood seasoning (such as Old Bay®)
1 clove garlic, minced
1 teaspoon lemon zest
1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
¼ teaspoon salt, or to taste
¼ teaspoon freshly ground white pepper, or to taste

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C).
  • Pull the edges of the split lobster shells apart and gently lift the tail meat to rest above the shells. Place the prepared lobster tails on a baking sheet.
  • Brush each portion of tail meat with 1 teaspoon melted butter.
  • Lightly mix the crushed crackers, crabmeat, 1/4 cup of clarified butter, parsley, seafood seasoning, garlic, lemon zest, lemon juice, salt, and white pepper in a bowl until thoroughly combined.
  • Spoon half the stuffing onto each lobster tail; press lightly to slightly shape the stuffing so it doesn't fall off.
  • Bake the lobster tails in the preheated oven until the meat is opaque and the stuffing is golden brown on top, 10 to 12 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the thickest part of the lobster tail should read 145 degrees F (65 degrees C).

Tips:

  • Mise en Place: Before starting, ensure all ingredients are measured, prepped, and ready to use. This will ensure a smooth cooking process.
  • Choose the Right Salmon: Select a fresh, firm, and evenly colored salmon fillet. Wild-caught salmon is preferred for its superior flavor and texture.
  • Seasoning is Key: Don't be shy with the seasonings. Use a combination of salt, pepper, garlic powder, and paprika to enhance the flavor of the salmon and stuffing.
  • Stuffing Consistency: The stuffing should be moist but not overly wet. If it's too dry, add a bit of melted butter or mayonnaise. If it's too wet, add some bread crumbs or crackers.
  • Careful Folding: When folding the salmon around the stuffing, be gentle to avoid tearing the fish. Use toothpicks or kitchen twine to secure the salmon closed.
  • Cooking Temperature: Bake the salmon at a high temperature initially to sear the outside and then reduce the heat to finish cooking the fish gently.
  • Basting: Baste the salmon with melted butter or olive oil during baking to keep it moist and flavorful.
  • Let it Rest: After baking, let the salmon rest for a few minutes before serving. This allows the juices to redistribute, resulting in a more tender and flavorful fish.

Conclusion:

Salmon stuffed with crab and lobster is a delightful culinary creation that combines the rich flavors of seafood with the delicate texture of salmon. By following these tips, you can elevate this dish to a restaurant-quality meal that will impress your family and friends.
