Slow Roasted Salmon With Potatoes And Lemon Herb Vinaigrette Food

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.

SLOW-ROASTED SALMON WITH HERB SAUCE

Steps:

• Prepare the salmon for roasting: Preheat oven to 225 degrees F. Remove the salmon skin by cutting a flap of skin from the tail end. Hold the skin with a kitchen towel for a good grip, then hold the knife at a 30-degree angle downward to the cutting board between the skin and the flesh. Move the towel back and forth so the knife cuts through the salmon without cutting off much of the flesh. Using tweezers or needle-nose pliers, pull out any small bones left in the salmon, then cut fillet into 4 even slices at an angle. Place salmon fillets into a shallow roasting pan, drizzle with olive oil, and sprinkle with sea salt. Rub the fish with the oil to evenly coat, then place on a parchment-lined rimmed baking sheet. Bake 15-20 minutes, checking after 10 minutes. Note: If the fish is cold from the refrigerator, let it come to room temp, about 30 minutes, before baking.
• Make the beurre blanc sauce and prepare the herbs: In a medium saucepan, add the shallot, white wine, and lemon juice. Bring to a boil, then reduce to a simmer and cook until liquid has reduced by half. While the liquid is reducing, chop the herbs. Any combination of herbs will work as long as they're chopped roughly (not finely), to preserve their character and flavor. Once the liquid has reduced, whisk in the butter, one piece at a time, to thicken the sauce.
• Finish the sauce and assemble the dish: Salmon is cooked when it's flaking apart gently and no longer raw in the middle. Set aside. Finish the sauce by pouring it into a blender to break up the shallots and create a better emulsion with the butter. Pour back into the pan over low heat and add the herbs. Place a salmon fillet on a serving plate, ladle herb sauce on top. Garnish with the additional fresh herbs and serve.

Reduce heat to low, add the lemon wedges and cook slowly until almost soft. Remove with a slotted spoon and place on a baking rack. Let dry at room temperature overnight.
• Place lemon juice in a small nonreactive saucepan and cook until reduced to 1/4 cup, let cool.
• Place cooled lemon syrup, sherry vinegar, shallots and garlic in a blender and blend until smooth. With the motor running, slowly add the olive oil and season with salt and pepper. Pour into a bowl and fold in the parsley.
• Fry capers in oil until crisp, about 1 1/2 minutes. Drain on paper towel.
• For the potatoes: Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Toss the potatoes with the oil and season with salt and pepper to taste. Arrange the potatoes in an even layer in the bottom of 4 small cazuelas. Place in the oven and bake 3/4 of the way through.
• For the salmon: Remove the potatoes from the oven and reduce the heat to 250 degrees F. Lightly brush the salmon on both sides with olive oil and season with salt and pepper to taste. Place the salmon on top of the potatoes and return the cazuelas to the oven. Bake for 12 to 14 minutes, until cooked through. Remove from oven and immediately drizzle with lemon vinaigrette, and sprinkle with chopped parsley and capers.
