Broiled Salmon With A White Bean Kale And Bacon Ragout Recipes

BROILED SALMON WITH A WHITE BEAN, KALE & BACON RAGOûT RECIPE - (4.5/5)

Steps:

• Set an oven rack 6 inches from the top element and heat the broiler to high. In a heavy skillet over medium heat, cook the bacon in the olive oil, stirring occasionally, until the bacon renders much of its fat and starts to brown, about 5 minutes. Use a spoon to remove 2 Tbs. of the bacon fat from the skillet and reserve in a small bowl. Add the garlic to the bacon in the skillet. Cook, stirring, until the garlic starts to sizzle, about 30 seconds. Raise the heat to high, add the kale, and sauté, stirring, until it starts to wilt, about 1 minute. Add the chicken broth and beans and bring to a boil. Reduce the heat to medium, cover the skillet, and cook for 5 minutes. Remove from the heat and keep warm. While the beans are cooking, line a heavy-duty rimmed baking sheet with foil and arrange the salmon, skin side down, on it. Drizzle the reserved bacon fat over the salmon and season with 1/2 tsp. salt and a few generous grinds of black pepper. Broil until slightly firm to the touch, 7 to 10 minutes for medium (the salmon will be dark pink in the middle). Sprinkle half of the thyme over the salmon. Stir the remaining thyme into the beans and kale and season with salt and pepper to taste. To serve, spoon equal portions of the beans and kale onto dinner plates and top each with a piece of salmon. Serve immediately.

BROILED SALMON

Steps:

• Coat each salmon fillet with the olive oil (just enough to make it shine, not drip) and salt and pepper.
• Preheat grill to medium-high heat and place the salmon skin side up, (even if the skin has been removed) this is VERY important. Then close the lid and allow to cook about 5 to 7 minutes. Check the grill to make sure there are no flame flare-ups and the salmon is cooking evenly, and let cook another 3 to 4 minutes. You are going to let the fish cook about 90 percent on this side. After about 8 to 9 minutes the salmon should turn over easily and allow to finish another 3 to 4 minutes. Remove from grill and serve with your favorite side dishes. The entire cooking time should be about 10 to 12 minutes.

MELT-IN-YOUR-MOUTH BROILED SALMON

Steps:

• Preheat the oven's broiler and set the oven rack about 6 inches from the heat source. Line a jelly roll pan with aluminum foil, and spray with nonstick spray.
• Place garlic and olive oil in a small microwave safe bowl and cook on High for 1 1/2 minutes. Melt the butter in a saucepan over low heat, and stir in the garlic mixture. Remove from heat; stir in the Worcestershire sauce, lemon juice, white wine, black pepper, garlic salt, and fines herbs.
• Place the salmon fillets skin-side down on the prepared pan. Spoon about 1/3 of the butter sauce over the fillets, and sprinkle evenly with the fresh dill.
• Broil in the preheated oven for 3 minutes. Turn salmon fillets so that the side of the fillet faces up, and baste fillets with about 1/3 of the butter sauce; broil for 3 minutes. Turn the fillets to place the opposite side facing up; spoon on the remaining butter sauce; broil until the fish flakes easily with a fork, about 3 additional minutes.
