DELICIOUS!Salmon recipe?
Ingredients


4 salmon filets (6oz.), skin on


Extra-virgin olive oil


Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper


1/2 bunch fresh rosemary


1/2 bunch fresh sage


3 cloves garlic


1 carrot


1 large onion


3 ribs of celery


1 leek (white and green part only)


2 cups black lentils


1 1/2 quarts chicken stock (48 oz)


8 springs thyme


1 bay leaf


1 stick and 2 tablespoons of butter


2 bunches mixed baby beets, split in half


1 bunch baby carrots


10 parsnips, small size


1 bunch baby turnips split in half


1/2 cup brown sugar


1/2 cup apple cider vinegar


2 cups chicken stock








Cooking Instructions


Preheat the oven to 400F.





Start with the vegetables beca they take a while to roast. Trim, wash and scrub the vegetables. Split the beets and turnips in half lengthwise, but leave the carrots and parsnips whole. Lay the vegetables out in a large baking dish. Drizzle with 3 tablespoons of olive oil and sprinkle with the thyme, salt, and pepper. Break up the butter into pieces and scatter over the vegetables. Drizzle with the apple cider vinegar and sprinkle with the brown sugar. Cover the dish with foil and put it in the oven and roast for about 1 hour or until a knife goes smoothly into the beets. When done, remove from the oven and let the vegetables cool. Keep the beets separate until you are ready to serve, otherwise the color will bleed into the others while resting.





Keep the oven on as you will need it for the salmon.





To prepare the lentil stew, heat the olive oil in a large saut锟?pan. Add the herbs until they are fragrant and crackly; this inf s the oil with the flavor and also leaves you with a beautiful herb garnish. Remove the herbs and set aside on a paper towel to drain. Meanwhile puree the garlic, carrots, onion, celery and leeks in a food processor until smooth. Add the butter to the inf d oil and then add the puree. Stir in the vegetables and cook until light brown color. Warm the chicken stock in a separate pot or in a microwave and then add it too, Stir in the lentils. Bring to a boil and then reduce heat. Simmer for 30 minutes or until lentils are tender.





Now prepare the salmon. Check filets for bones and tweezers to remove any bones that may still be there. Season both sides of the filet with olive oil, salt and pepper. Heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil in a large saut锟?pan over high heat and then add the filets skin side down. Cook for 3 minutes and then place the whole pan in the oven, keeping the filets skin side down beca you want the skin to get real crispy. Cook in the preheated oven for an additional 4 minutes for medium rare.





To compose the plate, serve a spoonful of lentil stew on the bottom of the plate, top with roasted root vegetables and filet of salmon and garnish with fried herbs.
SALMON





8 oz salmon fillet per person


3 parts brown sugar


2 parts butter - melted


1 part lemon juice





Place the salmon in a single layer in a foil-lined cake pan. Mix together the brown sugar, melted butter and lemon juice (because there is just hubby and I - my parts are by tablespoonfuls so 3 T brown sugar, 2 T butter and 1 T lemon juice) Spread on the salmon. Seal foil around the salmon and bake in a 400潞 oven for 20 minutes. That should be long enough for your fish - you don't want to dry it out.





Enjoy!





The other method I did that others enjoyed was to make a mixture of mayonnaise, a little sour cream, dill and white pepper and spread it over the salmon in foil. Seal and bake 400潞 for 30 min. It takes longer because the mayo slows down the cooking.
i like to either bake or bbq my salmon. One recipe I like is doing a chili powder rub and bake in tin foil on the bbq (about 15-20 mins/inch thickness). I serve it with a lemon-dill sauce from powder but add the juice of 1 lemon, 1 lime and some rind. Gives it zing.





Another recipe I do is 2 tbsp soy sauce, 2 tbsp REAL maple syrup, and a little oil. Marinate for about 20 mins then bake in the oven.





Yum!
Here's one you can use with either fresh salmon, or it's a great extender for leftover salmon. It's Pasta with Salmon and Gorgonzola. I posted it on Suite101.com.
We BBQ salmon filets ......rub with olive oil and sprinkle with garlic salt %26amp; dried dillweed ....grill on both sides until done. Serve with this sauce: equal parts mayonnaise %26amp; Dijon mustard, with about 2 TB. dried dillweed
I sprinkle lemon juice, cajun, paprika, and some garlic salt on it. Then I broil it on low until it's done (less than fifteen minutes). My husband loves it.
