Pan Seared Salmon With Wasabi Dressing And Bok Choy Recipes

Steps:

• In a blender, combine mayonnaise, cilantro, lime juice, wasabi, ginger, and 1 tablespoon water. Blend until smooth, adding up to 2 tablespoons more water to thin sauce, about 3 minutes. Season with salt and pepper, and set aside.
• In a large nonstick skillet, heat oil over medium-high. Season salmon with salt and pepper; place in skillet, flat side up. Cook until opaque throughout, 3 to 4 minutes per side. Transfer to a plate, and cover with aluminum foil to keep warm.
• Wipe out skillet with a paper towel. Add mirin and soy sauce, and bring to a boil over medium-high. Add bok choy; season with salt and pepper. Cover, and cook until tender when pierced with the tip of a paring knife, 3 to 5 minutes; discard liquid. Drizzle salmon with wasabi sauce, and serve with bok choy.

Steps:

• Combine 1 1/2 cups water with the rice and 1/2 teaspoon salt in a small saucepan and bring to a boil. Reduce the heat, cover and simmer until the rice is tender and most of the water is absorbed, about 15 minutes. Remove from heat and let rest. Fluff with a fork right before serving.
• Meanwhile, quarter the bok choy through the stem ends. Halve the mushroom caps (or quarter them if they are large) by stacking them and cutting them in batches.
• Heat 2 large nonstick skillets with 1 tablespoon oil in each over medium-high heat. Divide the bok choy between the two pans, placing it cut-side down. Cook, undisturbed, until charred in spots, 2 to 3 minutes. By this time, the leaves will be fairly wilted, and there will be enough room to transfer all of the bok choy into just one skillet to finish cooking. Place the bok choy so that the other cut side faces down. Cook until charred in spots, about 2 minutes. Add the mushrooms, scallion whites, 1/2 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of pepper. Continue to cook, stirring, until the bok choy and mushrooms are soft, about 4 minutes (if the skillet looks dry add 1 more tablespoon of oil). Stir in the scallion greens, then remove the skillet from the heat. Stir in the soy sauce and vinegar.
• While the bok choy cooks, pat the fish dry with paper towels and sprinkle with 1/2 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of pepper. Wipe out the other skillet and add 1 tablespoon vegetable oil. Put the salmon into the hot skillet, flesh-side down, and cook until golden brown and crisp, about 4 minutes. Flip with a spatula and cook the other side to the desired level of doneness, 2 to 3 minutes more.
• Divide the vegetables and rice between 4 plates and top each with a piece of salmon. Drizzle with a little extra soy sauce.

Steps:

• Position a rack in the center of the oven and preheat to 425 degrees F. Line a rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper. Lay the asparagus in the center of the prepared baking sheet, drizzle with 1 tablespoon olive oil and toss with 1/4 teaspoon salt and 1/8 teaspoon pepper. Roast until the asparagus just begins to change color, 5 minutes.
• Remove the baking sheet from the oven and place the bok choy to the left of the asparagus. Drizzle with the remaining 1 tablespoon of olive oil and sprinkle with the grated ginger, 1/4 teaspoon salt and 1/8 teaspoon black pepper; toss to coat. Place the salmon fillets to the right of the asparagus, spacing them evenly apart. Brush with hoisin.
• Roast until the bok choy is tender and the leaves begin to crisp, the asparagus is tender, and the salmon is cooked through yet still moist, about 12 minutes more. Divide salmon and vegetables between two plates and top with sliced scallions.

Steps:

• Combine mayonnaise, lime juice, wasabi paste, 1 clove garlic, and 1/2 teaspoon ginger in a small bowl. Add just enough water to give dressing a drizzling consistency. Season with salt and pepper.
• Heat 1 tablespoon oil in a 12-inch skillet over medium heat. Add white parts of the scallions, 2 cloves garlic, and 1/2 teaspoon ginger. Stir until softened, about 2 minutes. Add bok choy and 1 tablespoon water. Cook until leaves wilt, about 3 minutes. Season with salt. Transfer bok choy mixture to a plate.
• Heat remaining 1 tablespoon oil in the same skillet over medium-high heat. Pat salmon dry with paper towels; season with salt and pepper. Place salmon skin-side down in the skillet. Cook until skin is crispy, about 6 minutes. Flip salmon and reduce heat to medium. Cook until flesh is opaque, about 4 minutes more.
• Transfer salmon to serving plates; drizzle wasabi dressing on top. Garnish with green parts of the scallions. Serve bok choy mixture alongside.
