Salmon Arturo Recipes

Steps:

• For the salmon and potatoes meal: Position oven racks in the upper and lower thirds and preheat the oven to 450 degrees F. Line a heavy-duty rimmed baking sheet with aluminum foil.
• Stir together the lemon zest, 2 teaspoons salt and a generous amount of black pepper in a small bowl. Place the salmon on the prepared baking sheet and rub the lemon zest mixture over the top of the salmon. Brush with 1 tablespoon of the olive oil. Roast on the top rack until the salmon is just cooked through and flakes with a fork, 14 to 16 minutes depending on thickness.
• Meanwhile, toss the potatoes on a second rimmed baking sheet with the remaining 2 tablespoons olive oil, 1 teaspoon salt and several grinds of black pepper. Roast on the bottom rack, tossing once about halfway though, until golden and tender, 15 to 17 minutes.
• While the salmon and potatoes cook, stir together the sour cream, mayonnaise, parsley, dill, capers, lemon juice, Dijon and scallions in a serving bowl. Remove 1/3 cup of the mixture and reserve in the refrigerator to make the salmon cakes.
• Place a 5-ounce (approximate) portion of salmon on each of 4 plates, divide the potatoes and sauce among the plates and serve lemon wedges on the side. Wrap and refrigerate the remaining salmon for salmon bowls and salmon cakes.
• For the salmon bowls: To make the dressing, combine the rice vinegar, soy sauce, honey, ginger and sriracha in a small bowl and whisk until smooth. Whisk in the vegetable oil and sesame oil.
• To assemble, make a base of 3 cups of mixed greens per bowl. Top each with 1/2 cup of the grains and 1 cup of the mixed vegetables. Flake 12 ounces to 1 pound of the leftover salmon into large chunks and divide equally over the bowls. Drizzle with the dressing and garnish with sesame seeds and sliced scallions.
• For the salmon cakes: Melt the butter in a medium skillet over medium heat. Add the bell pepper and onion and cook, stirring occasionally, until softened, about 6 minutes. Transfer to a large bowl to cool for about 10 minutes.
• Flake the remaining 8 ounces leftover salmon into the bowl. Add the seafood seasoning, lemon zest, egg, 1/3 cup reserved sauce from the salmon and potatoes meal and 1/2 teaspoon salt. Mix well with a fork to combine and break up the salmon into small flakes. Add the panko and mix well to combine. Form into 4 large or 8 small cakes.
• Dredge the salmon cakes in the panko mixture and chill for 30 minutes on a large plate in the refrigerator. Heat about 1/2 inch of vegetable oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium heat until a few breadcrumbs sizzle on contact. Add the salmon cakes and cook until golden, about 3 minutes per side. Drain on paper towels. (The dredged salmon cakes can also be wrapped and frozen; cook from frozen, adding 2 to 3 minutes to the total cooking time.)

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:

• Place asparagus in a steamer basket; place in a large saucepan over 1 in. of water. Bring to a boil; cover and steam for 4-5 minutes or until crisp-tender. Drain and set aside. In a skillet, saute onion and red pepper in butter until tender; set aside., In a large bowl, combine the cream cheese, mayonnaise, flour, eggs, cream, dill, basil and pepper until blended. Fold in the salmon, asparagus, onion mixture and Swiss cheese. Transfer to a greased 9-in. pie plate. Sprinkle with Parmesan cheese. Bake at 350° for 35 minutes or until a knife inserted in the center comes out clean.
