Grilled Salmon With Chanterelles Recipes

Steps:

• Chanterelles:
• Heat a large skillet, preferably cast iron, over medium-high. Add butter and oil and swirl pan until butter is melted. Add mushrooms, thyme, and garlic and season with salt and pepper. Cook, tossing often, until mushrooms are golden brown and tender, 5-8 minutes; set aside.
• Salmon and assembly:
• Prepare a grill for medium-low heat. Using a sharp knife, make a slit along belly of salmon, running from rib cage to tail. Turn salmon on its back and cut along both sides of backbone without piercing through skin on other side. Carefully remove backbone without tearing skin, then remove pin bones with small needle-nose pliers or tweezers. Season inside of fish with salt and pepper and stuff lemon slices, dill, thyme, and tarragon inside cavity. Tie wet kitchen twine around fish in several places to secure. Place on a rimmed baking sheet; rub skin all over with oil.
• Carefully place fish on grill grates and grill, uncovered, until flesh on bottom side is mostly opaque but still slightly translucent in the center, 12-18 minutes. Carefully turn fish and cook on the other side to the same doneness, 8-10 minutes. Transfer fish to a clean rimmed baking sheet and let rest at least 10 minutes.
• Place skillet with chanterelles directly on edge of grill to reheat while you portion the fish. Remove strings and peel back skin from salmon; discard. Break flesh of top fillet into large pieces and transfer to a platter. Discard aromatics and remove skin from bottom fillet, break up, and transfer to platter. Season with more salt and pepper and spoon warm chanterelles over.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Put the peppers in a baking dish and put them in the oven. Roast them for 10 to 12 minutes. The skin will shrivel and begin to blacken in spots. Let the peppers cool in a paper bag. Remove the skin from them then slit the peppers open and remove the stems, seeds and veins.
• Put the peppers in a blender and add the lemon juice, sugar and salt. Blend to a smooth puree. Put the puree in a small saucepan and warm it slightly.
• Heat the oil in a saute pan and add the onion. Cook for one minute, then add the chanterelles, reduce the heat, cover and cook for 10 minutes, adding a little water if needed.
• Grill the salmon fillets or bake them on a lined baking sheet in a 350-degree oven for 12 to 15 minutes.
• When the salmon is done, put some of the red pepper puree in the middle of each plate. Cover the puree with some of the mushrooms, put the salmon fillets on top and serve.
