Salmon With Anchovy Olive Tapenade Recipes

TAPENADE CRUSTED SALMON AND ORZO WITH ROASTED RED ONIONS

Steps:

• Roasted Onions: Preheat oven to 425 degrees F.
• Combine all of the ingredients, except the onions in a medium shallow baking dish. Add the onions, toss them in the mixture and season with salt and pepper, to taste.
• Cover the onions with foil and roast for 20 minutes. Remove the foil and continue roasting until tender, about 35 to 40 minutes, basting with the juices several times. In a saute pan place butter and melt. Add orzo and tomatoes. Toss until orzo is cooked through. Place the orzo in a large bowl and spoon the onions and the cooking liquid over the pasta.
• Tapenade: Place all ingredients in a food processor and process until smooth. Season with salt and pepper, to taste.
• Salmon: Season the salmon with salt and pepper to taste. Spread 2 tablespoons of the tapenade over each piece of salmon (not on the skin side). Heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil in a large saute pan. Place 4 of the fillets in the pan, tapenade side down, and saute until a crust forms, about 2 minutes. Turn the fish over and continue cooking for about 5 minutes for medium-rare doneness.
• Serve the salmon with the Roasted onions.
