SALMON WITH SPINACH SAUCE

You won't have to fish for compliments with this tasty recipe. Poaching is a quick and healthy way to prepare an entree as delicate as fish, keeping it moist and tender while cooking. And the flavorful spinach sauce adds a pretty green accent to the pink salmon. -Taste of Home Test Kitchen

Provided by Cassie Best

Categories     Dinner, Main course

Time 20m

Number Of Ingredients 8

2 sweet potatoes
1 tbsp olive oil or rapeseed oil
2 salmon fillets, skin removed
2 garlic cloves, thinly sliced
170g baby spinach
1 lemon, zested and ½ juiced, ½ thinly sliced
75g mascarpone
5 tbsp milk

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.

SALMON AND SPINACH WITH CAPER SAUCE



Salmon and Spinach With Caper Sauce image

Another great fish recipe based on one from the Low Fat Living Cookbook. The original recipe called for wrapping the salmon fillets in phyllo dough, for everyday meals I just use foil. (I always have a package of frozen mixed mushrooms from Trader Joe's on hand, so if I want to make this and don't have fresh mushrooms, the frozen ones work just as well). Sprinkling the spinach with some rice vinegar after baking makes this taste like the sautéed spinach and garlic served at P.F. Chang's.
