Pan Seared Salmon With No Fail Hollandaise And Asparagus Recipes

HOLLANDAISE SAUCE (EASY & NO-FAIL)

Steps:

• Melt the butter in a microwave (make sure it's covered as it will splatter) for about 1 minute, until it's hot. Alternatively, you could heat it on the stove.
• Add the egg yolks, lemon juice, dijon, salt and cayenne pepper into a high powered blender and blend for 5 seconds until combined.
• With the blender running on medium high, slowly stream in the hot butter into the mixture until it's emulsified.
• Pour the hollandaise sauce into a small bowl and serve while warm.

PAN SEARED SALMON RECIPE

Steps:

• Heat your cast iron skillet over medium heat. Pat salmon dry with paper towel and season both sides with salt and pepper.
• When your skillet is near smoking, add in the butter, let it melt for 30 seconds.
• Add in the salmon (skin side down). Let the salmon cook without moving. It's about 5 minutes depending on how thick your salmon fillet is.
• Flip, and cook for 2 more minutes. You know when it's time to flip when the sides of the salmon look about 2/3 opaque and cooked through.
• Remove from the pan and set it aside (skin side up). Enjoy!

PAN-SEARED SALMON WITH NO-FAIL HOLLANDAISE AND ASPARAGUS

Steps:

• Preheat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the oil and heat for a couple minutes.
• Salt the boiling water, add the asparagus and cook for 2 minutes. Drain and reserve on a paper towel-lined plate.
• Add the salmon skin-side up to the pan and cook for 4 minutes. Flip and cook skin-side down until the skin is crisped and salmon is cooked just past medium-rare, about 6 more minutes.
• Meanwhile, make the hollandaise sauce: Bring a couple inches of water to a simmer in a small saucepan. Whisk together the egg yolks, mustard, cayenne, lemon juice, 1 tablespoon each of the herbs in a medium metal bowl. Set the bowl over the simmering water (do not let the bowl touch the water) and whisk until the hollandaise has thickened, about 2 minutes. You can move the saucepan on and off the heat to regulate the temperature, so the eggs don't cook too quickly.
• When the mixture is hot and thickened, gradually add the butter in several batches and whisk after each addition until fully incorporated, about 3 minutes. Add sea salt and white pepper to taste.
• Place the salmon fillets and asparagus on individual serving plates and spoon the hollandaise over the top. Garnish with the remaining minced herbs and serve.

PAN-SEARED SALMON WITH SUMMER SUCCOTASH

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
• For the sauce: In a medium bowl whisk together the creme fraiche, mustard, lemon zest, lemon juice and salt. Cover with plastic wrap and set aside.
• For the salmon: Sprinkle the salmon fillets on all sides with the salt. Heat the olive oil in a large oven-proof skillet over medium-high heat. With tongs, gently place the salmon, flesh-side down, in the pan. Allow the salmon to cook, undisturbed, for 3 minutes to form a golden crust. Using a spatula, gently flip each fillet. Transfer the pan to the oven for an additional 5 minutes. Remove from the oven and cover with foil to keep warm.
• For the succotash: Heat the olive oil in a medium skillet over medium-high heat. Add the red peppers and shallots and cook for 4 minutes, stirring often with a wooden spoon. Add the corn, edamame and salt and cook for another 3 minutes. Remove the pan from the heat and stir in the kale, basil and lemon juice.
• To serve: Spread 2 tablespoons of the sauce in a circle on each serving plate. Top with 1/2 cup of the succotash, and a salmon fillet. Serve with sauce on the side if desired.

PAN-SEARED CRISPY SALMON

Steps:

• 1. Season the fish on both sides with salt and pepper. Heat 3 tablespoons of the olive oil in a saute pan. Place the salmon, skin-side down, in the pan and cook (without moving the fish) until the skin is crispy, about 4 to 5 minutes. Reduce the heat, turn the salmon, and continue to cook for another 3 to 4 minutes.
• 2. Meanwhile, heat the remaining tablespoon oil in another saute pan over medium heat. Add the garlic, shallots, and leek; saute for 3 to 5 minutes until the leak begins to soften.
• 3. Add the cannellini beans and the wine; bring to a gentle simmer. Add the butter. Season to taste with salt and pepper.

PAN-SEARED ASPARAGUS WITH CRISPY GARLIC

Steps:

• Place a paper towel-lined plate next to the stove. In a medium or large skillet, combine the garlic and olive oil over medium-low heat. Cook, shaking the skillet often, until the garlic is very light golden, 3 to 5 minutes. Remove the skillet from the heat, tilt it, then use a slotted spoon to transfer the garlic to the towel-lined plate, leaving the remaining oil in the skillet. Season the crispy garlic with salt.
• Return the skillet to medium-high heat. Add the asparagus, season with salt and pepper, and cook, shaking often, until bright green, crisp-tender and browned in spots, 4 to 5 minutes. Slide onto a platter, including any oil in the skillet. Top with the garlic chips and season again with salt and pepper.

• Preheat a large heavy skillet over medium heat for 3 minutes.
• Coat salmon with olive oil. Place in skillet, and increase heat to high. Cook for 3 minutes. Sprinkle with capers, and salt and pepper. Turn salmon over, and cook for 5 minutes, or until browned. Salmon is done when it flakes easily with a fork.
• Transfer salmon to individual plates, and garnish with lemon slices.

ONE-PAN SALMON WITH ROAST ASPARAGUS

• Throw in the cherry tomatoes and vinegar and nestle the salmon amongst the vegetables. Drizzle with the remaining oil and return to the oven for a final 10-15 mins until the salmon is cooked. Scatter over the basil leaves and serve everything scooped straight from the dish.
