Salmon Burger And Kale Salad A Recipe Match Made In Drool Heaven Food

SALMON BURGERS WITH KALE SALSA

Steps:

• Heat oven to 200C/180C fan/gas 6. Put the sweet potato wedges in a large roasting tin, drizzle over the olive oil, then sprinkle over the paprika and toss together to make sure all the wedges are coated. Bake in the oven for 35 mins or until tender and starting to crisp at the edges.
• While the sweet potatoes cook, take a large piece (about 40cm long) of baking parchment and place the pieces of orange peel on the parchment just to the right of the centre. Lay the salmon on top of the peel and sprinkle over 1 tsp water. Fold the paper over to seal the salmon in a parcel. Put the parcel in the oven when the sweet potatoes are nearly ready and bake for 12-15 mins.
• Put the avocado slices in a bowl, pour over the lime juice and set aside until needed. For the salsa, tip the kale into a large bowl with the olive oil. Scrunch well with your hands to massage the oil into the kale (see tip, below). Stir in the rest of the salsa ingredients and season.
• Lightly toast the burger buns and the seeds for about 1 min in a dry, non-stick frying pan over a high heat, then set aside until needed. Take the salmon out of the oven, remove from the parcel and discard the orange peel. Lay the slices of avocado on the bottom half of each burger bun then place the salmon on top. Pile in a couple of spoonfuls of the salsa with a sprinkling of the toasted mixed seeds. Put the lids on and serve with the remaining salsa and wedges on the side.

SHEET PAN BLACKENED SALMON WITH GARLICKY KALE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400F. Set an oven rack in the lower-middle position.
• Prepare the salmon: Use 1 tablespoon of the olive oil to grease the bottom of a rimmed sheet pan. Place the salmon, skin side down, on a flat surface and season with salt. In a small bowl, mix together the cayenne pepper, paprika, garlic powder, and mustard and set aside. Sift an even layer of the spices over the salmon and arrange filets skin side down, on the baking sheet, with space between each.
• Prepare the kale: In a medium bowl, massage the kale with the remaining 3 tablespoons olive oil and the garlic. Arrange it all around (but not covering) the fish on the pan. Sprinkle the oregano on top of the salmon.
• Cook the salmon: Place the pan in the lower-middle rack and roast for 10 to 12 minutes for medium to medium-rare salmon. (For well-done fish, leave in the oven an additional 5-8 minutes.) Remove the pan from the oven and sprinkle all of the lime zest and juice over the fish. Drizzle with honey. Serve immediately.

PERFECT SALMON BURGERS

Steps:

• Cut three-quarters of the salmon into 1/4-inch pieces. Put in a large bowl. Cut the rest of the salmon into chunks; transfer the chunks to a food processor along with the mustard, mayonnaise, lemon juice, lemon zest and cayenne. Pulse to make a paste. Add the pureed salmon mixture to the bowl with the diced salmon. Add the scallions, 2 tablespoons panko, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and black pepper to taste. Gently mix until just combined.
• Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and brush with olive oil. Divide the salmon mixture into 4 mounds on the parchment paper. With damp hands, pat into 4-inch-wide, 3/4-inch-thick patties. Cover loosely with plastic wrap and refrigerate at least 30 minutes.
• Preheat the broiler. Spread the remaining 1 cup panko on a plate. Press both sides of the salmon patties in the panko. Heat the olive oil in a large nonstick or cast-iron skillet over medium-high heat. Add the patties (in batches if necessary) and cook until browned on the bottom, 3 to 4 minutes, adjusting the heat if necessary. Turn and cook until the other side is browned and the patties feel springy in the center, 3 to 4 more minutes. Transfer to a paper towel-lined plate to drain; season with salt.
• Meanwhile, arrange the buns, cut-side up, on a broiler pan and broil until toasted, 1 to 2 minutes. Serve the patties on the buns; top with tartar sauce and arugula.

SALMON BURGERS

Steps:

• For the patties: Mix together the egg, mayonnaise, mustard, seafood seasoning, lemon juice and hot sauce in a bowl until thoroughly combined. Fold in the salmon, scallions and panko until the mixture is combined again. Form into 4 patties, then set aside.
• Place a large skillet over a medium-high heat and add the oil. When the oil is hot, add the patties and cook until golden and crisp, 4 to 5 minutes per side. Drain on a paper towel.
• For the caper mayo: Mix together the mayonnaise, lemon juice, capers, hot sauce, salt and pepper.
• To assemble: Spread some of the caper mayo on the bottom of a toasted bun. Top with a salmon patty, lettuce, tomato and pickle. Spread the other half of the bun with a bit more of the mayo and place on top. Repeat with the remaining ingredients. Serve.

PAN-SEARED SALMON WITH KALE AND APPLE SALAD

Steps:

• Bring the salmon to room temperature 10 minutes before cooking.
• Meanwhile, whisk together the lemon juice, 2 tablespoons of the olive oil and 1/4 teaspoon salt in a large bowl. Add the kale, toss to coat and let stand 10 minutes.
• While the kale stands, cut the dates into thin slivers and the apple into matchsticks. Add the dates, apples, cheese and almonds to the kale. Season with pepper, toss well and set aside.
• Sprinkle the salmon all over with 1/2 teaspoon salt and some pepper. Heat the remaining 1 tablespoon oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-low heat. Raise the heat to medium-high. Place the salmon, skin-side up in the pan. Cook until golden brown on one side, about 4 minutes. Turn the fish over with a spatula, and cook until it feels firm to the touch, about 3 minutes more.
• Divide the salmon, salad and rolls evenly among four plates.
