Blackened Salmon With Spinach And Black Eyed Peas Recipes

Steps:

• Heat oil in a large heavy saute pan or iron skillet over high heat until almost smoking hot.
• Coat the salmon fillets well on both sides with the blackening spice and place gently in the hot pan. Sear on the first side for about 2 minutes and then flip fish over. Add the black beans to 1 corner of the pan and throw in the fresh spinach and butter right on top of everything and cook it all for about 2 minutes more.
• To serve, take the spinach off the top and place it on the bottom of a plate. Then arrange the salmon and black beans around it. Garnish with a dollop of sour cream, if desired.
• Mix all the blackening spice ingredients well and store in a sealed container or spice canister. Keep extra as a versatile spice in your kitchen.

Steps:

• Butter 4 individual, shallow, flame-proof casseroles and set aside. Trim and discard the thin belly section from the salmon fillets and season the fillets on both sides with salt and pepper. Place the salmon in the center of the casseroles and surround the fillets, in this order, with the peas, fava beans, snow peas, bacon, scallions and lettuce. Season the vegetables with salt and pepper. Lay the butter slices over the vegetables. (Recipe may be made ahead to this point several hours ahead; cover and chill.)
• Pour the fish fumet into the dishes and place each dish on top of a stove burner turned to high heat. Bring the fumet to a boil. Lower the heat to medium-high and cook for 5 minutes, until a metal skewer inserted into the center of the salmon for 5 seconds feels barely warm when touched to your lip; the salmon will be rare.
• Sprinkle the chopped mint over the vegetables and lay the mint sprigs on the salmon. Put the casseroles on serving plates and serve immediately.
• Remove the gills and eyes from the fish, or have your fish store do it. Cut the heads and bones across into 4-inch pieces. Put them in a shallow pan and cover with cold water: Let stand for 1 hour, changing the water twice. Drain.
• Heat the oil in a large pot over medium heat. Add the onion, fennel, leek, peppercorns, salt, parsley and bay leaf. Turn the heat to medium-low and cook until the vegetables are softened but not browned, about 4 minutes. Add the fish bones and cook, stirring from time to time, until the bones and any flesh around the bones turn from translucent to white, about 12 minutes. Add the wine and water and bring to a boil. Boil for 10 minutes, skimming off the foam as it rises to the top. Remove from the heat and let rest for 10 minutes.
• Strain the fumet through a fine-mesh sieve, pressing firmly on the solids to extract as much of the flavorful liquid as possible. If you have more than 3 cups of fumet, place the liquid in a clean saucepan and boil until reduced to 3 cups. Store, tightly covered, in the refrigerator for up to 3 days, or in the freezer for up to 2 months.

Steps:

• Season the salmon on both sides with salt, pepper and the Cajun seasoning; set aside. (If your Cajun seasoning contains salt, do not season the salmon with additional salt.) Heat 1 tablespoon olive oil in a medium saucepan over medium-high heat. Add the celery and a pinch of salt. Cook, stirring, until the celery starts to soften, about 4 minutes. Stir in 2 sliced scallions and the garlic; cook until softened, about 1 minute. Add the black-eyed peas and chicken broth. Cover and bring to a boil over high heat, then uncover and reduce to a simmer. Mash about 1/4 cup of the beans against the side of the pan with a wooden spoon. Simmer until the broth is thickened, 8 to 10 minutes.
• Meanwhile, heat a large nonstick skillet over high heat. Rub the remaining 1 tablespoon olive oil all over the salmon. Add to the skillet, curved-side down; reduce the heat to medium high and cook until blackened on the bottom, 3 to 5 minutes. Flip, reduce the heat to medium and continue cooking until browned on the other side, 2 to 3 minutes for medium rare to medium.
• Add the spinach and hot sauce to the beans; stir until wilted, about 30 seconds. Add more salt and pepper, if needed. Divide the beans and salmon among shallow bowls. Top with the remaining sliced scallion.

• In a large, heavy skillet over high heat, cook salmon, butter side down, until blackened, 2 to 5 minutes. Turn fillets, drizzle with remaining butter, and continue cooking until blackened and fish is easily flaked with a fork.

Steps:

• Each steak works best if it is about 3/4 inches thick, especially when using a cast iron skillet. Coat each stake with the butter (or olive oil) and let sit while the rest of the butter/olive oil heats up in the pan. After about 10 minutes, coat each stake on both sides with the seasoning mix and let it cook for around 2 minutes uncovered. Afterwards, flip it over and cook the stakes until they are a nice pink color inside. The time that it takes to cook each stake determines on how large they are.
