Salmon With Potatoes And Red Onions Food

SALMON WITH POTATOES AND RED ONIONS

Steps:

• In a large skillet, heat oil over medium-high. Add onions and season with salt and pepper. Cook until onions are golden brown, 4 minutes, turning once. Add potatoes, broth, and 4 sprigs thyme and bring to a boil. Reduce to a simmer and cover. Cook until potatoes are just tender when pierced with a knife, about 20 minutes.
• Season each fillet with salt and pepper and top with 1 sprig thyme. Place salmon on top of potatoes. Cover and cook until salmon is opaque throughout, 7 to 9 minutes. Serve salmon with potatoes, onions, and cooking liquid.

SHEET-PAN SALMON WITH POTATO HASH

Steps:

• Place a baking sheet in the upper third of the oven and preheat to 450˚ F. Toss the potatoes, bell peppers and onion with 3 tablespoons olive oil, 1/2 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of pepper. Spread on the hot pan and roast, stirring halfway through, until the potatoes are tender and browned in spots, 15 to 20 minutes.
• Meanwhile, roughly chop the capers, cornichons and parsley. Combine the yogurt in a bowl with the capers, cornichons and half the parsley. Stir in the lemon zest, 1 tablespoon lemon juice and a pinch of Old Bay; season with salt and pepper.
• Coat the salmon with the remaining 1 teaspoon each olive oil and lemon juice and 1 1/2 teaspoons Old Bay; season with salt. Stir the potato mixture and make space on the pan for the salmon fillets. Add the salmon to the pan and roast until the fish flakes easily with a fork, 7 to 10 minutes depending on the thickness.
• Divide the salmon and potatoes among plates and top with the yogurt sauce. Sprinkle with the remaining parsley.

SPICY SALMON WITH CARAMELIZED ONIONS

Steps:

• Combine the black pepper, paprika, cayenne pepper, minced garlic, Dijon mustard, brown sugar, onion powder, and salt in a small bowl. Stir in 1 tablespoon of olive oil to make a paste. Spread the paste all over the salmon fillets, and set aside to marinate at room temperature 30 minutes.
• Heat the remaining 2 tablespoons of olive oil in a small pan over medium heat. Stir in the onion, and cook until tender and golden brown, about 10 minutes. Heat a separate non-stick skillet over medium-high heat. Cook the salmon fillets in the hot skillet until golden brown on each side, and no longer translucent in the center, about 4 minutes per side. Pour the browned onions and olive oil over the salmon fillets to serve.

SAUTEED SALMON WITH RED ONION MARMALADE

Steps:

• Season the salmon with salt and pepper on both sides. Make 2 or 3 slits across the skin of the salmon. Place a cast-iron skillet over high heat. Add enough peanut oil to lightly coat the bottom of the pan. Just as the oil begins to smoke add the salmon, skin-side down and cook for 4 minutes. Lower the heat and cook the salmon all the way on the same side, about 10 minutes - it will cook from the bottom up. During the last 30 seconds or so, spoon some of the oil over the top of the salmon to help cook it through.
• While the salmon is cooking, make the sauce. In a stainless steel saute pan over medium heat, add 1 tablespoon butter and the oil. When the butter is melted, add the onions and cook until translucent but not browned, about 6 minutes, stirring constantly. Season with salt and pepper. Deglaze with the balsamic vinegar and red wine. Add the thyme and cook until the liquid is almost completely reduced, about 3 minutes. Add the cream and bring to a simmer. Cook until the cream is slightly reduced and starts to thicken, about 3 to 4 minutes, stirring occasionally. Be careful as the cream could boil over at this point. Once the cream is reduced, remove the thyme sprig. Season, to taste, with salt and pepper. Stir in the remaining butter.
• Spoon the onion marmalade onto plates. Top with the salmon and garnish with chive flowers.

ROASTED SALMON WITH RED POTATOES AND DILL

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 450°.
• In a 15 1/2" x 10 1/2" jelly roll pan, toss potatoes with oil, salt and pepper. Roast potatoes in oven for 10 minutes.
• After 10 minutes, remove pan from oven. With spatula, push potatoes to one end of the pan to make room for the fish.
• Place fish in pan, sprinkle with 1/2 t. salt. Return to oven and continue roasting with potatoes for 15 minutes or until fish flakes easily and potatoes are brown. At this point, you may need to remove the fish and continue roasting the potatoes until done.
• Transfer fish to a platter, top with horseradish sauce and half of the fresh or dried dill.
• Toss potatoes with remaining dill and serve alongside the salmon.

BAKED SALMON WITH RED POTATOES AND SQUASH

Steps:

• Cut potatoes into small bite sized chunks.
• Slice zucchini and yellow squash into 1/4" slices.
• Mince all garlic. Use more or less to your taste.
• Slice lemon in to 8ths.
• Turn oven on to 350 degrees.
• In a big skillet put 3-4 Tbsp of olive oil. Turn heat on medium to medium-high.
• Place the potatoes in the skillet and season to taste with garlic (a little less than half), chili powder (I also use Cayenne pepper), salt, pepper, oregano, basil and thyme.
• Toss in pan or use a spatula so that all the potatoes are evenly covered.
• Season zucchini and squash the same as the potatoes.
• Cook potatoes for 10-15 minutes until ALMOST done. Turn heat to medium-low or medium.
• Add zucchini and squash to potatoes and toss (or turn with spatula).
• Wash salmon fillet and place in large square baking pan 11 X 7 X 2 is good (just know that it has to be big enough for the salmon and all the potatoes and squash).
• Score the salmon length-wise (as if you were going to make 3 strips of fish) about half way through the meat. DO NOT CUT ALL THE WAY THOROUGH.
• In the two pockets you just made in the fish, stuff the minced garlic. Then squeeze 2 or 3 of the lemon slices (juice AND pulp) over the fish, and place two tablespoons of butter (margarine can be used, but will make the fish greasy) over each pocket.
• Sprinkle salmon with chili powder, and pepper.
• After potatoes and squash are done (potatoes are soft) dump the whole skillet over the salmon and put in the oven on the middle rack and bake until the salmon is flakey (about 30 minutes).

CITRUSY ROASTED SALMON AND POTATOES

Steps:

• Set a rack in the center of the oven and heat the oven to 425 degrees.
• In a medium bowl, combine the olive oil, clementine or mandarin juice, lime juice, cilantro, shallot and garlic; set aside citrus sauce.
• Scrub the potatoes and slice them into ¼-inch-thick rounds. In a large (12-inch) cast-iron skillet (or similar oven-safe pan), fan out the potato rounds, overlapping them a little, to cover the surface of the skillet. Season well with salt (about 1 to 1½ teaspoons) and black pepper to taste. Sprinkle on a few red-pepper flakes. Stir the oil and citrus juice mixture to combine again, and spoon half of the sauce over the potatoes. Place the skillet in the oven and roast for 20 minutes, until the edges start to turn golden.
• Remove the skillet from the oven, season the salmon well with salt (about 1½ teaspoons) and pepper to taste and place the salmon on top of the potatoes, skin side down. Sprinkle with a few more red-pepper flakes. Spoon the rest of the citrus sauce over the salmon and top the fish with the citrus slices. Place the skillet back in the oven and roast until the salmon is cooked through to your liking, 10 to 20 minutes, depending on the thickness of the salmon.
