WILD SALMON WITH CHIVE OIL AND LIME CRèME FRAîCHE
The wild king salmon season opens in late spring in Alaska and all the way down the West Coast. The season continues through summer, but is at its best in June. The year's first wild salmon has brilliant red flesh, a mild sweet flavor and a velvety texture. Farmed salmon doesn't compare. You pay a high price for wild salmon, but the splurge is worth it. Paired with bright green chive oil and limey crème fraîche, it will make you swoon.

Steps:
- Heat oven to 375 degrees. Lay the salmon fillets on a parchment-lined baking sheet. Coat salmon with olive oil and season with salt and pepper on both sides. Bring to room temperature.
- Make the chive oil: Put 1 cup roughly chopped chives in a blender or food processor. With the food processor running, slowly add oil and a pinch of salt. You should have a bright-green oil. Transfer chive oil to a small bowl.
- Put crème fraîche in a small bowl. Stir in lime zest and juice. Season with a little salt.
- Bake salmon on top rack of oven for 8 to 10 minutes, until just done. When you see juices begin to rise to the surface of the fish, remove fish from oven. (It is better to err on the less-cooked side; the fish continues to cook a bit from residual heat.)
- To serve, transfer fish to individual plates or a platter. Dollop about 1 tablespoon of limey crème fraîche on each fillet. Drizzle chive oil over the top and sprinkle with chives. Garnish with blossoms and watercress sprigs.
PAN-FRIED WILD SALMON
Steps:
- Rinse the salmon fillets and pat dry thoroughly with paper towels; season with sea salt.
- Heat the oil in a skillet over medium-high heat.
- Gently lay the salmon into the hot oil with the skin side facing up and cook until the the flesh side is golden brown, 5 to 7 minutes; turn and continue cooking until the skin side is slightly browned, about 5 minutes more. Remove the salmon from the skillet, allowing any oil to drain from the fish back into the pan.
- Remove the skin from the salmon fillets; fry the skin in the oil remaining in the skillet until crispy, 2 to 3 minutes. Serve the crispy skin with the salmon.

Steps:
- Blacken the whole garlic and the onion slices on all sides in a large, dry non-stick frying pan. Remove, cool briefly, then peel the garlic cloves. Soak the ancho chilli in boiling water for 15 mins, drain, then place in a blender with the sugar, cider vinegar, garlic, onion and some salt and pepper. Whizz to a smooth sauce.
- Heat the grill. Brush each salmon fillet liberally with the sauce and save any remaining. Grill for 8 mins. Meanwhile, mix the lime zest with the crème fraîche. Serve the fish with extra chilli sauce, a dollop of the crème fraîche and lime wedges for squeezing over. Sprinkle with coriander, if you like, and serve with green beans or rice and a salad.
