Poached Salmon With Pine Nuts And Sun Dried Tomatoes Recipes

Steps:

• Coat a large skillet with non-stick spray and cook the garlic over low heat for 30 seconds.
• Stir in the breadcrumbs and pine nuts, tossing continuously for 2 minutes, or until lightly toasted.
• Turn off the heat.
• Stir in the tomatoes, cheese and basil.
• Adjust seasoning to taste with sea salt and pepper.
• Set aside.
• Put about 4 cups of hot water, the lemon juice and bay leaf in a large skillet and bring to a boil.
• Place the salmon fillets in the boiling water, reduce and heat to medium-low and simmer for 8 minutes, or until cooked through.
• Add water if the fillets are not fully covered.
• Drain.
• Transfer the fillets to four plates and spoon 1 ½ tablespoons of the breadcrumb mixture on top of each serving.

Steps:

• Combine the stock, wine, thyme, garlic, shallot and lemon zest in a wide, deep pan and bring to a simmer. Add the salmon, a pinch of salt and a grind of pepper. Partially cover and simmer until the salmon is fully cooked, 8 to 10 minutes.
• Serve with an arugula salad, lemon slices and olive oil drizzled on top.

Steps:

• To poach salmon, preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Season salmon all over with salt and pepper. Bring stock or juice to a boil in a large ovenproof skillet. Add fish, so they are barely touching, and bring liquid back to a boil. Turn fish over, then cover with a piece of parchment paper coated with olive oil. Transfer to oven and bake 5 minutes. Turn fish over, cover again, and bake an additional 2 minutes. (Drain and reserve the liquid in the pan for use as stock.) Transfer fish to a platter, cover with plastic wrap, and chill until serving time.
• To make dressing, remove stems and finely chop all herbs. If these fresh herbs are not available, substitute chives, mint, marjoram, or chervil. Watercress or the bright yellow leaves inside celery stalks are also preferable to dried herbs. Mix all ingredients in a small bowl, and reserve in refrigerator.
• To serve, arrange each fillet on a lettuce lined serving plate. Spoon on tomato and herb mixture. We like to serve with various garnishes such as radishes, sliced avocado, pickles or olives around the salmon.

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:

• Place in a large skillet the carrot, onion, sliced celery, lemon slices, parsley and bay leaves.
• Add the fish, water, salt and pepper to taste, the wine and the lemon juice. Bring the water to a boil, uncovered.
• Turn heat down to a simmer and let fish cook for 5 minutes.
• Turn off the heat and leave fish undisturbed for 10 minutes. Then remove it carefully to a serving platter; the salmon should be perfectly done.
