Yummy Poached Lemony Salmon Food

LEMONY SALMON AND SPICED CHICKPEAS

Steps:

• Place a rack in lower third of oven; preheat to 300°F. Toss lemon slices in a large bowl with a drizzle of oil. Arrange slices in an even layer on a rimmed baking sheet. Set salmon on lemons. Season salmon all over with kosher salt and pepper, then drizzle and rub with some oil. Roast until salmon is just barely opaque in the middle, 12-17 minutes, depending on thickness. If you like your salmon well-done, cook it a few minutes longer, but keep in mind that you risk the chance it will dry out. Let salmon cool, then flake into medium-size pieces with a fork.
• Meanwhile, bring chickpeas, garlic, za'atar, and remaining 1/2 cup oil to a bare simmer in a small skillet over medium-low heat. Cook, stirring occasionally and reducing heat if needed, 10 minutes. Stir in 1/2 tsp. kosher salt (less if your za'atar is salty) and remove skillet from heat.
• Using a slotted spoon, transfer chickpeas to a medium bowl, leaving oil behind. Whisk lemon juice into oil; taste dressing and season with more kosher salt and a few grinds of pepper if needed.
• Toss arugula in a large bowl with 1 tsp. dressing. Divide among bowls along with radishes, chickpeas, and salmon (and lemons if desired); drizzle with more dressing. Sprinkle with sea salt and more pepper.

POACHED SALMON WITH LEMON CRISPS AND MEYER LEMON CREAM

Steps:

• For the court boullion: Place all ingredients in a large stock pot and let simmer for 30 to 40 minutes. Strain the stock and season with salt. In a shallow roasting pan, bring the stock to just below a simmer. Fully submerge the portion cut pieces of salmon in the stock and cook to desired doneness. See Chef's Note 1.
• Remove the portions with a spatula and chill until service. See Chef's Note 2.
• For the Meyer lemon cream: Place the garlic, shallots, Meyer lemon peels, and white wine in a pot over medium heat and allow the wine to reduce by half. Add the heavy cream and bring to a boil. Whisk in the turmeric. Season with salt and the juice of the Meyer lemon. Strain through a sieve to remove the garlic, shallots, and lemon peel. Chill until service.;
• For the lemon crisps: In a medium sized saucepan, over medium heat, heat 1 to 2 inches of the oil in a deep saucepot to about 250 degrees F. Cut off the ends of the lemons. Using a sharp mandolin, slice the lemons into thin rings about 1/16th of an inch. Coat each ring individually in the rice flour and fry in the hot oil until it begins to slightly brown. Remove from the oil and place on a paper towel and allow them to sit for a minute to fully cook.;
• For assembly: On a nice serving platter, make an even coat of the lemon cream sauce. Place the poached salmon on top of the cream and top with lemon crisps and sprigs of watercress or any other decorative green herb.
