SLOW ROASTED SALMON WITH POTATOES AND LEMON-HERB VINAIGRETTE
Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
- Drizzle canola oil to coat two 8-inch cazuelas or oven-safe dishes. Arrange the potato slices in one even layer on the bottom. Season with salt and pepper and drizzle with more canola oil on top. Bake until the potatoes just begin to brown around the edges and the centers are slightly soft when poked with a fork, 12 to 15 minutes.
- Meanwhile, whisk together the mustard and lemon juice in a medium bowl; season with salt and pepper. Continue whisking while drizzling in the olive oil until the sauce is emulsified. Add the parsley and mix to combine.
- Once the potatoes are cooked through, place one salmon fillet in each of the baking dishes and drizzle with canola oil; sprinkle with salt and pepper. Reduce the oven temperature to 250 degrees F and bake to medium doneness, about 15 minutes.
- Spoon the sauce over the top of the salmon and garnish with the thyme, parsley and lemon zest to taste.

Steps:
- Season: Pat salmon dry, then sprinkle with salt and pepper.
- Pan-sear: Heat oil in a large non stick skillet over medium high heat. Add salmon, presentation side down, and cook for 3 minutes until golden brown.
- Flip: Turn salmon and cook the other side for another 2 minutes, until the internal temperature registers 49°C / 120°F (for medium-rare, recommended) or until cooked to your taste (Note 5).
- Butter baste: When it's almost cooked, add the butter. Melt, then spoon over the salmon a few times.
- Rest: Remove salmon onto plate, and cover loosely with foil to keep warm.
- Sauté garlic: Add garlic and stir for 20 seconds or until light golden.
- Reduce wine: Add white wine, turn up heat to high. Bring to simmer while stirring base of the pan to dissolve all the golden bits into the sauce. Cook 1 minute or until it most evaporates and the wine-y smell is gone.
- Thicken cream & stock: Add cream and chicken stock, then simmer on medium heat for 2 - 3 minutes until reduced and slightly thickened.
- Add parmesan & herbs: Stir through parmesan (this will thicken sauce more), then the herbs. Taste sauce and see if more salt and pepper is needed.
- Serve: Serve salmon with Creamy Sauce, ensuring there's something on the plate to soak up all that amazing sauce! Mashed Potato rates highly. See above video for list of suggestions (including side salads).
