Fiesta Eggs And Salmon Food

SALMON FIESTA

Steps:

• Sprinkle salmon with lemon juice, salt, and pepper.
• Heat 2 tablespoons oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add onion and green bell pepper; cook until softened, about 5 minutes. Add garlic; stir. Add tomatoes; cook until softened, about 5 minutes. Stir in parsley, tarragon, dill, cilantro, and mint. Add cayenne pepper and sugar; season with salt and pepper. Stir in avocado.
• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
• Pour remaining 2 tablespoons oil into a bowl. Place 1 sheet of phyllo dough on a cutting board, brush with oil and cover with a second sheet. Place salmon on top of pastry, toward the bottom edge. Top with 1 to 2 spoonfuls of the tomato-herb sauce, spreading evenly. Roll the pastry over the salmon; seal edges. Place on a baking sheet.
• Bake in the preheated oven until golden, about 45 minutes. Reheat remaining sauce and serve with the salmon.

SCRAMBLED EGGS WITH SMOKED SALMON

Steps:

• Reserve 2 slices of salmon for garnish. Chop the remaining salmon into very small pieces.
• Whisk your eggs and cream together. Add 1/2 of your chopped chives and season eggs with salt and pepper. Preheat a large nonstick skillet over medium heat. Melt butter in the pan and add eggs. Scramble eggs with a wooden spoon. Do not cook eggs until dry. When eggs have come together but remain wet, stir in chopped salmon. Remove pan from the stove and place on a trivet. Garnish the eggs with remaining salmon and chives and serve right out of the warm pan.
• Note: If you are serving these eggs with the other recipes provided as a brunch, a platter of store bought fruit filled dainties will complete your elegant brunch. Allow 1 dainty per person but halve dainties so that guests may mix and match varieties.

SMOKED SALMON DEVILED EGGS

Steps:

• Place the eggs in a pot large enough to hold them in a single layer. Cover the eggs with cold water and bring to a full boil over high heat. As soon as the water boils, turn off the heat, cover the pot, and let the eggs stand for 15 minutes. Drain the eggs and fill the pot with cold water. Set aside until the eggs are cool.
• Peel the eggs and then slice them in half lengthwise. Remove the yolks carefully. Place the yolks in the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the paddle attachment and arrange the whites on a platter in a single layer with the cut sides up and sprinkle with salt.
• To the egg yolks, add the sour cream, cream cheese, mayonnaise, lemon juice, chives, salmon, salt, and pepper. Beat on medium speed until fluffy. With a small spoon, fill the egg whites with the egg yolk mixture. Cover loosely with plastic wrap (you don't want to flatten the filling) and refrigerate for 30 minutes for the flavors to blend.
• When ready to serve, garnish with a dollop of salmon roe and some extra chopped chives. Sprinkle with salt and pepper and serve.

SALMON AND SCRAMBLED EGGS

Steps:

• Cut salmon fillets into large cubes, season, and saute in an oiled nonstick skillet over medium-high until opaque throughout, about 5 minutes. Reduce heat to medium; add eggs, a splash of cream, and dill. Season and cook, stirring, until eggs are just set; serve with toast.

EGGS BENEDICT WITH SMOKED SALMON & CHIVES

Steps:

• First make the hollandaise sauce. Put the lemon juice and vinegar in a small bowl, add the egg yolks and whisk with a balloon whisk until light and frothy. Place the bowl over a pan of simmering water and whisk until mixture thickens. Gradually add the butter, whisking constantly until thick - if it looks like it might be splitting, then whisk off the heat for a few mins. Season and keep warm.
• To poach the eggs, bring a large pan of water to the boil and add the vinegar. Lower the heat so that the water is simmering gently. Stir the water so you have a slight whirlpool, then slide in the eggs one by one. Cook each for about 4 mins, then remove with a slotted spoon.
• Lightly toast and butter the muffins, then put a couple of slices of salmon on each half. Top each with an egg, spoon over some hollandaise and garnish with chopped chives.

SCRAMBLED EGGS WITH SMOKED SALMON, ASPARAGUS AND FETA CHEESE

Steps:

• Heat the butter in a large nonstick skillet or saute pan over medium heat. When the butter begins to foam, add the asparagus and cook until just tender ("crisp-tender" in kitchen parlance). Season with salt and pepper.
• Crack the eggs into a large bowl and whisk with the milk. Season with a few pinches of salt and pepper and add to the pan with the asparagus. Turn the heat down to low and use a wooden spoon to constantly stir and scrape the eggs until they begin to form soft curds.
• Remove from the heat when the eggs are still creamy and soft and then fold in the smoked salmon and feta cheese.

FIESTA BAKED SALMON

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350.
• In a small bowl combine all ingredients except the fillets.
• Pour half of the sauce into a casserole.
• Add the salmon and pour the remainder of the sauce over the fillets.
• Bake in oven for approximately 10 to 15 minutes, or until it is adequately cooked in the middle.

FIESTA SCRAMBLED EGGS

Steps:

• In a large cast-iron or other heavy skillet, heat oil over medium-high heat. Add onion and pepper; cook and stir until tender, 3-5 minutes. Sprinkle with bacon. Pour eggs over the top; sprinkle with 1/2 cup cheese, salt and pepper. Cook over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until eggs are completely set. Sprinkle with remaining cheese. Serve with salsa.

EGGS BENEDICT FOR TWO - WITH SMOKED SALMON

Steps:

• Heat the grill / broiler. Put a large pan of water to boil over a high heat. As soon as the water starts boiling, reduce heat so the water is just simmering.
• Poach the eggs: crack one egg into a cup and gently slip the egg into the water. Place the 3 remaining eggs into the water using the same cup method, making sure to keep the eggs away from each other. Immediately turn the heat down to it's lowest setting & time the eggs for 3 minutes.
• Split the muffins & toast under the grill / or in a toaster.
• Make the Hollandaise: Heat the butter in a small pan or in the microwave, until it is bubbling & totally liquid. Do not let the butter brown.
• Crack the remaining eggs into a blender, put the lid on & leave the spout / hole open. Start the blender & pour the butter through the spout / hole in a steady stream - this will thicken the eggs. Add the lemon juice & season well to your taste with freshly milled blackk pepper & salt.
• Place the split muffins on 2 plates ( 2 half muffins on each plate).
• Top the muffin halves with the smoked salmon.
• Drain the poached eggs & place one on each muffin half.
• Spoon a little hollandaise sauce over each egg & serve immediately.
