MASTERS MARINATED SALMON

Steps:

• For the marinade: Add 1 at a time through the feed opening of a running blender, the mango, tender parts of lemongrass, cilantro, scallions, shallot, and ginger root until they begin to form a paste. Leave the blender running and through the feed opening add the curry paste and sriracha chili sauce and blend together for a few seconds, then continue by adding the liquids 1 at a time: Chardonnay, soy sauce, orange juice, and coconut milk. Reserve half of this mixture in a small bowl to make into a sauce.
• Arrange the salmon in a shallow bowl and pour the other half of the mixture over the fish. Cover and let marinate refrigerated for at least 2 hours.
• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
• Transfer the reserved sauce mixture to a small saucepan and cook over medium-high heat until it begins to bubble and thicken.
• Heat the olive oil in an oven-safe skillet and sear each side of the salmon (skin side down first) without disturbing for the first 3 to 4 minutes of sear time on each side. (This allows the surface to caramelize, so the fish won't tear apart when you flip it.) Transfer the pan to the oven to finish the fish - a further 5 to 7 minutes, depending upon the thickness of the fillets. Do not overcook the fish. It is done when it springs back upon being lightly prodded. Use an oven mitt to remove the pan from the oven (that handle will be hot). Transfer salmon to a platter and let rest.
• Strain the sauce and spoon over the salmon fillets.

SRIRACHA MARINADE

Steps:

• Whisk the marinade ingredients together in a large bowl. Marinade for 4-6 hours.
• Note 1: After marinating, discard marinade and season meat with salt and pepper to taste.
• Note 2: Reserve a little of the freshly made marinade to brush during grilling.

STUFFED SALMON WITH SRIRACHA CREAM SAUCE

Steps:

• In small bowl, combine cornstarch and 1/4 cup water. Stir to dissolve cornstarch.
• Combine soy sauce, pineapple juice, brown sugar, ground ginger, garlic powder and honey in small saucepan. Bring to simmer over medium heat. Once brown sugar has melted, add cornstarch mixture and simmer, stirring, until sauce thickens to coat back of spoon. Remove from heat and cool.
• Once sauce cools, transfer to container or ziptop bag with salmon. Refrigerate at least 30 minutes or up to 24 hours.
• Heat oven to 400*F.
• In small bowl, combine mayonnaise and sweetened condensed milk. Starting with 1 tablespoons, add sriracha until desired level of spice is reached. Note: The more you whisk the saucier it will become for drizzling consistency.
• Line baking dish with aluminum foil and spray with nonstick cooking spray.
• Remove salmon from marinade and place on cutting board. Carefully slit the side of each piece of salmon, making a long pocket, being careful not to cut through to the other side. Carefully insert 1 tablespoon cream cheese into each pocket and press fish to seal.
• Place salmon in baking dish and sprinkle each piece with 1/2 tablespoon sesame seeds. Cover with foil and bake for 20-25 minutes, or until salmon is cooked through. Note: In the last 4-5 minutes, you can remove the foil and allow to carmelize under the broiler.
• Serve salmon drizzled with sriracha cream sauce and sprinkled with green onions (as a serving suggestion, over a bed of jasmine rice).
