Salmon Steaks With Wine Sauce Recipes

SALMON WITH CREAMY WHITE WINE SAUCE

Steps:

• Heat the oil over a high heat in a frying pan (skillet).
• Add the salmon, skin-side down and cook for 2 minutes.
• Turn the salmon and cook for a further 2 minutes, until lightly browned, then turn back over so it's skin-side down again.
• Turn the heat down to medium and add the garlic, stir for 30 seconds (no longer or the garlic may burn), then add in the white wine.
• Bring to the boil and allow to bubble for a minute, then add in the chicken stock. Allow to bubble for a further minute.
• Add in the cream, salt, pepper and parmesan and bring back to the boil. Simmer gently for a further 3-4 minutes until slightly thickened.
• Stir in the lemon zest then serve the salmon topped with a sprinkling of fresh parsley. I love to serve mine with baby new potatoes and broccoli too.

Simmer until the liquid is reduced by half, 8 to 10 minutes. Stir in the chives and season with salt and pepper. Break the salmon into large chunks, and serve topped with the sauce.

OVEN-POACHED SALMON STEAKS WITH MUSTARD DILL SAUCE

Steps:

• In a saucepan combine the wine, 1 1/2 cups water, the sugar, the peppercorns, the coriander seeds, the mustard seeds, the salt, and the onion, simmer the mixture for 15 minutes, and let cool to room temperature. Halve the salmon steaks with sharp knife, discarding as many bones as possible, and re-form the steaks. Arrange the steaks in 2 buttered shallow baking pans, ladle the wine mixture around them, and poach the steaks, covered with a buttered piece of foil, on the upper and lower racks of a preheated 375°F. oven, switching the positions of the pans after 15 minutes, for 30 minutes. Let the steaks cool, venting the foil, and chill them in the poaching liquid, covered, for at least 6 hours or overnight.
• Separate the salmon steaks into halves, brush them with some of the poaching liquid, and arrange them on a platter. Garnish the salmon with dill sprigs and the lemon slice and serve it with the sauce.

Discard bay leaf. Transfer mixture to a small bowl set in a bowl of ice and cold water and stir until cold to the touch, about 5 minutes. Remove from ice water and stir in zest, butter, 1/4 teaspoon salt, and 1/8 teaspoon pepper with a rubber spatula until incorporated.
• Preheat broiler. Line rack of a broiler pan with foil.

• Top each steak with 1 to 2 tablespoons red-wine butter.
