Pan Seared Salmon With Crispy Skin Food

PAN SEARED SALMON WITH CRISPY SKIN

Steps:

• Preheat a skillet over medium heat for 3-5 minutes (3 minutes for gas stoves, 5 for electric).
• Add enough oil to coat the bottom of the pan, about 1-2 tbsp. The oil should shimmer.
• Season the skin of the fish generously with salt, then test your piece of fish by touching the very end of it to the pan. If it makes a hissing sizzling noise, that means the pan is sufficiently hot. Go ahead and lay the fish down in the pan, always away from you so the oil doesn't splash.
• Let the salmon cook for 90% of the time on the skin side. The salmon I get is usually about an inch thick, so I cook it for 5 minutes on the skin side.
• Season the top of the fish with salt, then flip it over to cook for 15-30 seconds on the other side.
• Serve and enjoy!

PERFECT PAN SEARED SALMON + BLACKBERRY BALSAMIC SAUCE

Steps:

• In a small saucepan heat blackberries, balsamic vinegar, honey and rosemary until simmering. Crush blackberries with the back of a spoon until all are broken apart. Cook on a medium-low simmer until reduced by half and the mixture coats the back of a spoon.
• Pour sauce through a fine mesh strainer to separate the seed and herbs from the sauce. Discard seeds and set the sauce aside.
• Heat a thin layer of oil over medium-high heat in a stainless steel or cast iron skillet. Preheat for about 5 minutes.
• Salt and pepper fish on all sides and carefully add, skin side down, to skillet, gently pressing down on top of each fillet with a flexible spatula after each addition for about 10 seconds to set the skin.
• Cook fish for about 5 minutes without flipping or until your desired temperature-- 125 degrees for Medium-Rare, 145 degrees for medium-well.
• Gently flip fish over using a spatula and a fork to ease it over onto the other side and cook just briefly to get some color on top- about 30 seconds to a minute.
• Remove fish from pan and place on a paper towel-lined plate. Allow to rest for 5 minutes before serving.
• Serve with the blackberry balsamic sauce.

CRISPY SKIN SALMON

Steps:

• Sprinkle the salmon with salt and pepper. Place skin side up and rub 1 1/2 tablespoons softened butter all over the skin of the salmon. Transfer the salmon, buttered side up, to a sheet pan. Chill in the fridge to firm the butter, about 20 minutes.
• Preheat the broiler to high.
• Place the salmon about 5 inches from the heat source and cook until the skin is crispy and the fish is cooked through, 7 to 8 minutes.
• In a small saucepan over moderate heat, whisk together the remaining 1 1/2 tablespoons butter, lemon zest, lemon juice, mustard and tarragon leaves. Divide the sauce between 2 plates and place 1 piece of salmon on top of each pool of sauce.
• What Makes This Recipe Really Sing: This is the coolest way to get crispy skin on fish ever and the crispy skin is like a naturally salted and big flavored chip, so it's the best part!

CRISPY PAN-SEARED SALMON FILLETS RECIPE

Steps:

• Cook, pressing gently on back of fillets occasionally to ensure good contact with skin, until skin releases easily from pan, about 4 minutes. If skin shows resistance when you attempt to lift a corner with spatula, allow it to continue to cook until it lifts easily. Continue to cook until salmon registers 110°F (43°C) in the very center for rare, 120°F (49°C) for medium-rare, or 130°F (54°C) for medium, 5 to 7 minutes total.

CRISPY-SKIN SALMON WITH MISO-HONEY SAUCE

Steps:

• Whisk ginger, miso, honey, vinegar, oil, and 1 Tbsp. water in a small bowl to combine; set sauce aside.
• Heat a dry small skillet over medium. Toast sesame seeds, tossing, until golden and slightly fragrant, about 2 minutes. Transfer to a small bowl; let cool.
• Lightly season salmon all over with salt. Place skin side down in an unheated cast-iron skillet. Set skillet over medium heat and cook, undisturbed, 5 minutes. Press down lightly on salmon with a fish spatula to ensure all of the skin is making contact with the pan and continue to cook until flesh is opaque most of the way through (the top will still be translucent) and skin is crisp, about 5 minutes longer.
• Using spatula, gently turn fillets over, then remove pan from heat. Continue to cook fish in residual heat left in pan until just barely cooked through, 1-3 minutes more, depending on thickness.
• Spoon reserved sauce onto plates. Scoop some rice on top and set fillets, skin side up, on rice. Scatter scallions over and sprinkle with toasted sesame seeds.
