Salmon And Couscous Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat oven to broil. Place foil on cookie sheet and set aside.
• Bring 1 3/4 cups water to a boil in a pot; add 1/4 teaspoon of the salt and the couscous. Cover and cook 8 minutes, stirring occasionally. Set aside.
• Meanwhile, in a cup of small bowl combine crumbs and 1 tablespoon dill; set aside.
• Sprinkle salmon with remaining 1/4 teaspoon salt and the pepper and place on cookie sheet. Place directly under broiler and cook for 5 minutes. Remove from oven and lower rack (6 inches from heat source).
• Brush salmon with mustard and sprinkle with the crumb mixture, pressing to adhere. Spray with Pam. Return to oven and cook another 2 minutes.
• Stir remaining dill, spinach and chicken broth into the couscous and let sit for 5 minutes before serving with the salmon.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
• Add a drizzle of olive oil to glass pan and place the salmon. Squeeze the juice of 1 lime over the top of the salmon and sprinkle with the House Seasoning. Top with pads of butter. Wrap in the foil and bake for 25 to 30 minutes. Serve on a bed of couscous.
• House Seasoning: Combine all ingredients in a bowl.
• Couscous: Combine water or chicken stock, salt and butter in a saucepan, over medium heat and bring to a boil. Stir in couscous. Add diced tomatoes, crumbled feta, and green onions. Remove from heat, cover and let stand for 5 minutes.
• Uncover, fluff with a fork, and serve hot or cold.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
• In a large bowl, stir together the parsley, raisins, olives, capers, pine nuts, olive oil, and lemon juice and season with salt and pepper; stir in the couscous to moisten completely and season generously with salt and pepper.
• Put the salmon in a single layer in a smallish buttered gratin dish or baking dish (bottom measured 10 by 7 1/4 inches; 2.8 liter); the fillets should not touch one another. Sprinkle with salt and pepper and drizzle with a little olive oil. Now spoon the couscous mixture over the top of the fish so that it completely covers them and fills in the whole dish at the same time. Pour over the water. Drizzle with olive oil. Put the dish in the oven and bake 25 minutes. Use a large spoon to spoon out the salmon and the couscous.
• Note: 1 cup couscous plus 1 1/3 cups water is a better quantity to serve 2 if you have a smaller gratin dish or baking dish (remaining quantities are the same).

Steps:

• Season the salmon with salt and pepper. Heat 1 teaspoon olive oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add the salmon skin-side down and cook until almost cooked through and the skin is dark golden and crisp, about 8 minutes. Flip the salmon and remove the skillet from the heat; let sit until just cooked through, about 5 minutes.
• Meanwhile, heat the remaining 1 teaspoon olive oil in a medium saucepan over medium heat. Add the onion and cook, stirring often, until softened, about 5 minutes. Add the peas, chicken broth, olives, raisins, pepitas, hot sauce, 1/2 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of pepper. Increase the heat to high and bring to a boil, then stir in the couscous. Remove from the heat, cover and let sit 5 minutes.
• Fluff the couscous with a fork. Serve the salmon with the couscous and lime wedges.

Steps:

• Put your couscous in a bowl, then pour over just enough water to cover it.
• Set aside for 3 minutes to allow the couscous to soak up the water.
• Slice the salmon widthways into finger-size or twofinger-size strips (I've made 3 out of each fillet), drizzle with olive oil, and season with salt and pepper.
• Heat a non-stick frying pan and add the courgettes, asparagus tips and chilli. The vegetables will need 2-5 minutes, depending on their size and on your taste.
• Heat another non-stick frying pan and add the salmon strips (non-skin side first). They will need one minute on each side.
• Mix the tomatoes, lemon juice, 4 tablespoons of the olive oil and the coriander into the couscous and season to taste.
• Add the couscous to the veggies in the pan and mix.
• Put the salmon strips on top of the couscous, place a lid on and put back on a high heat for a minute.
• Serve:.
• Slide everything on to plates and spoon over some sour cream.

Steps:

• Grill the salmon: Heat a grill pan over medium-high heat. Coat the salmon with olive oil and season with salt and pepper. Grill about 5 minutes per side, depending on how thick your salmon filet is. Remove and let cool.
• Make the couscous: Put the couscous into a bowl and pour over 2 cups boiling water. Add 1 tablespoon olive oil, juice of 1/2 lemon, and salt and pepper to taste. Stir gently, cover, and let sit until the water is absorbed, about 15 minutes. Fluff with a fork, making sure to separate all the grains. Add the tomatoes, cucumbers, scallions, watercress, herbs, remaining olive oil, and remaining lemon juice; season with salt and pepper. Gently toss the couscous to combine all the ingredients.
• Make the dressing: Combine all the ingredients in a blender and process until smooth, green, and creamy. If necessary, thin the dressing with a tablespoon or two of warm water. Taste and adjust seasoning.
• Assemble the salad: Put a large piece of lavash bread onto a plate and pile on some of the couscous. Break the salmon apart by hand and place a big chunk on top of the couscous. Drizzle over some of the dressing and roll up the wrap.

Steps:

• For the couscous: Combine the couscous, olive oil, 1 teaspoon salt and a couple of grinds of pepper in a large heatproof bowl and stir well to combine. Pour 1 1/2 cups boiling water over the couscous and immediately cover tightly with plastic wrap. After 10 minutes, uncover, fluff well with a fork and stir in the pistachios, mint and scallions.
• For the zucchini noodle salad: Meanwhile, put the zucchini noodles in a colander set over a bowl and toss well with 1 teaspoon salt. Let sit until the zucchini has softened and purged some moisture, about 5 minutes. Press well to expel any extra moisture and pat dry with a kitchen towel. Transfer to a large bowl and toss with the tomatoes, feta, corn, basil, olive oil and vinegar. Season with salt and pepper.
• For the salmon: Put the salmon on a microwave-safe plate, drizzle with olive oil and sprinkle generously with salt. Spread with the chile spread and cover with another microwave-safe plate. Microwave on high until just cooked through, 2 to 3 minutes depending on your microwave.

Steps:

• Combine couscous and broth in a saucepan, bring to a boil.
• Turn off heat and let stand for about 10 minutes, or until the water is absorbed.
• Add the next 8 ingredients to the couscous, mixing thoroughly.
• Heat the grill or broiler. Grill or broil the salmon for 4-5 on each side, or until fish flakes easily with a fork.
• Serve salmon with couscous vegetable salad. Place lemon wedge on plates for individual use.

Steps:

• Heat oven to 200C/fan 180C/gas 6. Zest and juice 1 lemon, then mix the zest and ½ the juice with the spice, garlic, ½ the spring onions and 2 tsp oil. Season well. Put the salmon into a shallow dish, spoon over the marinade, then leave for 10 mins to let the flavours mingle.
• Meanwhile, put the couscous in a large bowl. Tip in the remaining lemon juice and oil, spring onions and 150ml boiling water, then cover and leave to stand.
• Lift the salmon onto a foil-lined baking tray, spoon over any leftover marinade, then roast for 15 mins. With 5 mins to go, pull out the baking tray and spoon 1 tsp clear honey over each fillet.
• Add the mint to the couscous and fluff it up with a fork. Serve the salmon with the couscous, spoon over the juices from the baking tray and add lemon wedges.

Steps:

• Heat the grill. Put the couscous, sultanas, most of the coriander, 1 tsp cinnamon and some seasoning in a bowl. Pour over the hot vegetable stock and set aside for 5 mins to soak.
• Mix together the pinch of cinnamon, honey and oil. Sit the salmon in a baking tray, spread over the honey mixture and season. Cook under a hot grill for about 8 mins until the fish is cooked through.
• Meanwhile, swirl together the harissa and yogurt. Fluff up the couscous with a fork and serve with the fish and yogurt, sprinkled with the remaining coriander alongside some green beans, if you like.

Steps:

• In a food processor, pulse cilantro, garlic, chile, ginger, paprika, and cumin until finely chopped. Add 1/4 cup oil and lemon juice and pulse to combine.
• Arrange salmon in a 9-by-13-inch baking dish. Rub both sides with cilantro mixture. Cover and refrigerate 30 minutes. Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Bake salmon, uncovered, until opaque throughout, 12 to 14 minutes.
• Meanwhile, in a small saucepan, bring 1 cup water to a boil. Stir in couscous, season with salt and pepper, and remove from heat. Cover and let stand until tender, about 5 minutes. Fluff with a fork and stir in lemon zest and 1 tablespoon oil. Serve salmon with couscous.

Steps:

• Sprinkle salmon with salt, garlic salt and pepper. Heat oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat; add salmon skin side up and cook 3 minutes. Turn fish and cook an additional 4 minutes or until fish flakes easily with a fork. Remove from heat and keep warm., In a large saucepan, bring stock to a boil. Stir in couscous. Remove from heat; let stand, covered, until stock is absorbed, about 5 minutes. Stir in tomatoes, green onions and goat cheese. Serve with salmon.

Steps:

• Put the couscous into a bowl and stir in the stock and oil. Cover with cling film and leave to stand 10 mins, then uncover and fluff up with a fork. Keeping back some herbs, add the rest of the ingredients, except the salmon. Season to taste.
• Heat oven to 200C/fan 180C/gas 6. Cut two large sheets of non-stick baking paper, then divide the couscous between them. Sit each fillet on the couscous, top with the remaining herbs and season. Fold the paper over, then twist the edges to seal - like a Cornish pasty. Pop the parcels onto a baking sheet and bake for 15 mins or until the fish feels firm through the paper. Serve in the bag.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 450 degrees. In a 9-by-13-inch baking pan, mix together carrots, couscous, almonds, raisins, mint, oil, 1 1/4 cups water, 1 1/2 teaspoons salt, and 1/4 teaspoon pepper.
• Place salmon fillets on top of couscous mixture; season generously with salt and pepper. Cover pan with foil; bake until fish is opaque throughout, 30 to 35 minutes.
• Transfer fish to plates. Fluff couscous with a fork; serve with fish and lemon wedges.

Steps:

• Boil the water and olive oil. When boiling, remove from heat, stir in the couscous, cover, and let sit for 5 minutes. Fluff with fork into a large bowl to cool.
• Flake the salmon and add to the bowl.
• Briefly steam the peas, rinse in cold water and add, then do the same for the corn.
• Add the onion, parsley and dill.
• Mix a bit of the dressing into the mustard to combine, then add the rest of the dressing and lemon juice.
• Sprinkle over the couscous, mixingly. (You know what I mean.) Taste to see if there's enough mustard and lemon for your taste. Mustard can be added thinned with liquid, such as more dressing, lemon juice, or water. Add salt and black pepper to taste.
• Chill for at least 2 hours if you have time, but it is good eaten right away, also. We enjoyed this on lettuce leaves with sliced tomatos, cucumbers, and corn chips.
• NOTES:.
• Add extra time if you need to cook the salmon. I didn't really have leftover salmon, so I poached a chunk in chicken broth and water to cover with added onion, lemon, parsley, dill, bay leaf, thyme, S&P. Was delish, and I used some liquid for ½ the couscous liquid. Saved the rest for another time. However, I am convinced this recipe would still taste delish with plain salmon.
• I imagine most kinds of mustard would be great, except I don't know about yellow?.
• Except the couscous, most measurements are an approximation, so please don't be afraid to change it to fit your tastes.
• I also noticed that the peas lost their bright green color overnight, so for brightest looks, add before serving.

Steps:

• Boil the kettle. Put the couscous, cranberries and spices in a large bowl. Dot with the butter and pour over 350ml boiling water. Cover immediately with cling film and leave for 5 mins to steam. Remove the film and fluff with a fork to loosen the couscous grains. Cool, stir in the pine nuts and herbs, then season to taste. Cut 6 squares of baking parchment about 30 x 30cm.
• Season the salmon fillets, spoon the couscous in mounds in the centre of the parchment squares, then dot with a little butter. Top each with a piece of salmon, scatter with a little orange zest and drizzle with a little juice. Fold the sides of the paper over, then fold up the ends to make a parcel. Tie with string and secure with a bow. Stir together the cranberry sauce, orange zest and juice, then set aside in a serving bowl. The parcels can be chilled for up to 1 day. Be sure to remove them from the fridge 20 mins before cooking.
• Heat oven to 200C/180C fan/gas 6. Put the parcels on a baking sheet in the middle of the oven and cook for 15 mins, or 20 mins if you prefer your salmon well done. Pop the parcels onto plates and let your guests unwrap their own supper. Serve with Garlic & feta broccoli and the cranberry & orange sauce.

Steps:

• Heat oven to 200C/180C fan/gas 6 and arrange the salmon in a shallow ovenproof dish. Mix the orange juice with the oil and harissa, then pour over the salmon and bake for 10-12 mins until the fish flakes easily, but is still moist.
• Meanwhile, put the couscous in a pan with the orange zest, 200ml water and a sprinkling of salt. Heat until the water bubbles round the edges of the pan, then cover and turn off the heat. After 5 mins, tip the couscous into a bowl, add the cucumber, onion, parsley and almonds (if using) and toss together ready to serve with the salmon and spicy juices.
