Salmon And Arugula Salad With Dijon Vinaigrette Recipes

Steps:

• Combine the shallot, mustard, vinegar, oil, sugar, honey and salt and pepper in a jar and shake to emulsify.
• Toss arugula with vinaigrette, to taste.

Steps:

• In a shallow baking dish, mix the white wine vinegar, Dijon mustard, lemon juice, Italian seasoning, rosemary, tarragon, capers, and sun-dried tomatoes. Place the salmon fillets into the dish, and turn to coat with the marinade. Season with pepper, and sprinkle with olives. Cover, and refrigerate 1 hour.
• Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
• Bake uncovered for 20 minutes in the preheated oven, or until fish is easily flaked with a fork.

Steps:

• Make the glaze for the salmon: In a small bowl, whisk 2 tablespoons olive oil with the orange juice, mustard, half the chopped garlic and 1/4 teaspoon salt. Set aside.
• Make the salad dressing: In another small bowl, whisk together 2 tablespoons olive oil with the lemon juice, 1/2 teaspoon salt and 1/2 teaspoon pepper. Stir in the shallots and the remaining garlic, then set aside.
• Using a small serrated knife, peel the grapefruit and oranges and trim to remove any remaining pith. Slice all the peeled fruit crosswise into thin circles (no larger than 1/2-inch thick); remove the seeds and set aside.
• Heat a 12-inch cast-iron or heavy stainless-steel skillet over medium-high until it's extremely hot (a drop of water flicked onto the pan should turn to steam almost immediately), about 3 minutes. Meanwhile, pat the salmon fillets dry using paper towels, brush both sides with olive oil, and season all over with salt and pepper.
• When the pan is ready, cook the salmon fillets skin-side down over medium-high without moving until the salmon skin releases easily from the pan, 3 to 4 minutes. Using a pair of tongs or a spatula, wiggle the fillets to loosen the skin from the bottom of the pan, then carefully flip. Lower the heat to medium and cook until the salmon is cooked through but still slightly rare in the center, 4 to 5 more minutes, depending on the thickness of the fillets.
• Transfer to a rimmed plate or serving dish, and brush the glaze all over the salmon, making sure to coat the fillets.
• Combine the arugula and fennel in a large bowl. Pour the dressing over the salad and toss well. Add the avocado, citrus rounds and pistachios, and toss gently. Transfer to a shallow serving bowl or platter and serve alongside the salmon.

Steps:

• Heat non stick skillet on medium/high heat.
• For dressing: In a large bowl combine dijon, horseradish, vinegar, salt, and pepper, and garlic. Whisk well. While wisking drizzle in 2 tablespoons olive oil.
• Drizzle a very small amount of oil (optional) onto fish filet. Sprinkle liberally with seasoning of choice.
• Cook salmon in skillet just until done turning once. If using thin fillets this should take very short amount of time, i.e. 2-5 minutes.
• Place arugula in bowl that dressing was made. Toss well to combine.
• Place dressed salad into two serving bowls. Top with carrot ribbons and hot cooked salmon.

Steps:

• Make the Dijon Mustard Vinaigrette: Put the shallots, vinegar, bay leaf, and thyme into a small pot set over medium heat. Cook the vinegar until it is reduced to a syrup, about 10 minutes. Remove the bay leaf and thyme stem.
• Pour the reduction into a mixing bowl. Set the mixing bowl on a kitchen towel shaped into a circle to prevent the bowl from wobbling. Whisk in the honey, mustard, and salt. Slowly drizzle in the oil, whisking constantly to emulsify the vinaigrette. If the vinaigrette appears to thicken too much, add a teaspoon of cold water.
• Put the arugula in a bowl and dress with the Dijon Mustard Vinaigrette. Use a vegetable peeler to shave the ricotta salata into the arugula. Toss to combine.
