Salmon recipe?

I've been using the same salmon recipe for years, and would like to try something new. If anyone has a glaze or marinade that they have tried, or possibly a good recipe website (preferably something that you have actually tried), please let me know. I'm up for grilling, broiling, or baking.


Please, no deep fried fish. That just sounds bad.Salmon recipe?

Salmon Fillets with Champagne Sauce





Salmon fillets with a Champagne sauce make the perfect dinner party recipe or recipe for that intimate dinner for two. Use 1 glass of champagne for the recipe





I know this recipe may sound difficult but take it from me, it really isn’t. It takes less than 20 minutes to cook provided you have prepared everything ahead of time. (That’s the real secret of hassle free cooking)





Ingredients - Serves 2 (easy to increase quantities)








14oz/400g Salmon Fillet, deboned


1 tabsp vegetable oil


Salt


Sauce








½ pint/300ml good fish stock (you can buy decent fish stock from the deli or a good supermarket)


2floz/60ml Champagne + 1 tabsp extra


2floz/60ml double cream


pinch caster sugar


½oz/15g unsalted butter


1 dsrtsp finely chopped chives


Method





First make the sauce.





Place the stock, half the cream, butter, sugar, champagne in a pan and add a pinch of salt. Bring to the boil and boil until reduced by half, put to one side.





Slice the salmon into 6 slices about ¼”/5mm thick, using a large knife at about 45° angle, down towards the skin.


Brush each slice with oil, season lightly with salt and place on a lightly oiled baking sheet.








Pre-heat the grill to high.





Whisk the remaining cream with the reserved dessert spoon of champagne until you reach the soft peak stage. Add to the sauce with 1 teaspoon of chopped chives and set to one side.





To Finish the Salmon Fillets





Grill the salmon fillets for about 1 minute on each side and divide between 2 warm plates. Bring the sauce back to boiling, add the remaining chives and whilst the sauce is still foaming, pour around the salmon fillets.





This salmon dish is best served simply with boiled new potatoes, a crisp green salad and, of course, a glass or two of chilled champagne. For dessert why not try a simple mascarpone %26amp; raspberry crème brûlée





Don't forget to set the room for a romantic evening as well. Low lighting - preferably candlelight, if you've got kids, try and get them to go to bed early and soft music (the last thing you want to here coming out of the speakers is Meatloaf!)





Grilled Salmon Fillets with Maître d’Hôtel Butter


Try this Grilled Salmon Fillet recipe tonight. This is a family favourite and one that my seven year old sons love to help make.








Ingredients - Per Person





4 /6oz (110 - 175g) Salmon fillet


Melted butter or oil to baste


Salt and Pepper





Maître d’Hôtel Butter - per Salmon Fillet








1oz (25g) unsalted butter - softened


1 dessertspoon chopped parsley (flat leaf has more flavour)


Few drops of lemon juice - to taste


Salt and Pepper





Method





To Make the Butter





Mash the butter on a plate with a fork or palate knife.


If the butter isn’t soft enough, you can very carefully pop it in the microwave on defrost for 5 - 10 seconds until it is malleable.


Add the parsley, lemon juice and seasoning to taste,- mix well.


Put the butter in some cling film or aluminium foil and roll into a sausage shape.


Place in the fridge until hard (or if running short of time - the freezer) Take out and cut into rounds about ½” thick.





The Salmon








Heat the grill pan or overhead grill until very hot


Quickly wash and pat the salmon fillets dry


Paint some melted butter or oil on both sides and season with pepper


If using an overhead grill to avoid lots of mess you can put some aluminium foil in the base of the grill pan to save on washing up.











Put the salmon either under the grill or on the grill pan flesh side first (ie closest to the heat source) and cook until the sides of the salmon are turning opaque,(Around 5 - 6 minutes)then flip over, baste with more butter or oil and cook until just done.





It’s better to have the salmon undercooked rather than risk making it dry and bland and the fish will go on cooking after being taken off the heat.





Take the grilled salmon off the heat and serve immediately with the Maître d’Hôtel butter rounds on top. Garnish with a segment of lemon and a sprig of parsley.

~Salmon


~Lemons (usually 2)


~Olive Oil


~Cajun Seasoning


~Brown Sugar (about 1/2 cup maybe a little more)





Put the Brown Sugar in.


Cut the lemons in half and squeeze as much juice as possbile. Then leave the lemons in the dish.


Pour in however much seasoning you want. I'm from Louisiana so we use alot but thats up to you.


Then pour in some olive oil and stir.


Put your salmon in and put more olive oil until fish is completely covered.





Cover container and put in the fridge.


I bake the salmon usually at about 425. My stove is older so I have to cook it longer.





The more seasoning and the less brown sugar the spicier it will be. The more brown sugar the sweeter.





Great dish and easy.
