Beer Poached Salmon Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat grill to medium-high heat.
• Using aluminum foil, create an oblong cooking tray (approximately 13 inches by 8 inches by 2 inches) to be placed directly on grill. Place salmon fillet in center of tray. Season first with garlic salt, sprinkle with brown sugar, and then cover with pieces of butter. Top with sliced red onions. Pour beer of choice into tray to just below the highest point of the fillet. Cover tray with aluminum foil to envelope fish completely. Place tray on grill, cover with lid, and grill for approximately 8 minutes or until just cooked through.

Steps:

• Drizzle the olive oil over the salmon fillets and season with some sea salt and white pepper. Set aside.
• Fill a high-sided large skillet one-third of the way up with water. Add the wine and lemon halves. Bring to a low simmer, add the salmon and let cook until firm to the touch, 5 to 7 minutes for medium. For well-done salmon, cook for 10 minutes.
• Serve garnished with the lemon wedges and parsley.

Steps:

• In a large, deep, straight-sided skillet or heavy pot, combine carrots, celery, onion, lemon, 1 1/2 teaspoons salt, and 6 cups water. Bring to a boil; reduce to a simmer, cover, and cook 8 minutes.
• Season salmon with salt and gently lower into simmering liquid (liquid should just cover fish). Reduce to a very gentle simmer. Cover and cook until salmon is opaque throughout, about 5 minutes (longer for thicker fillets). Using a wide slotted spatula, remove salmon from liquid.

Steps:

• Heat wine and water over medium high heat in a large non-stick skillet for 5 minutes.
• Slide salmon pieces into poaching liquid and dot with butter. Sprinkle with dried parsley, garlic, salt and pepper.
• Bring to a slow boil, reduce heat to medium and poach until salmon flesh is firm, about 10 to 15 minutes.

Steps:

• Heat grill to medium-high heat.
• Place fish fillet onto center of large sheet heavy-duty foil. Bring up foil sides. Pour beer over fish. Fold to make packet.

• Remove fish from packet to serving platter; sprinkle with nuts and parsley.

Steps:

• In a skillet, combine beer, lemon juice, onion, celery, salt, bay leaf and peppercorns. Bring to a boil and simmer for 10 minutes. Add salmon steaks, cover and simmer 15 minutes.
• Combine ingredients for tarragon mayonnaise and chill. Serve with salmon.

Steps:

• Place filet, skin side down, in a small stock pot.
• Pour enough water over to cover the salmon by about two inches.
• Place pot on high heat until just beginning to boil.
• Remove salmon from water and pat dry.
• Sprinkle with Kosher salt and pepper to taste.
• This goes great with a little garlic mayonnaise or a vinaigrette.
