Poached Salmon With Ginger And Cilantro Recipes

Steps:

• Halve 1 lime and squeeze the juice into a large straight sided skillet or pot with a lid. Add 6 cups water, the squeezed lime halves, ginger, and peppercorns and bring to a boil over medium-high heat. Reduce heat to a simmer, cover, and cook for 10 minutes to infuse the water with flavor; reduce heat to lowest setting, carefully slide salmon into the water, cover, and poach until fish is just cooked through, 5 to 7 minutes. Remove the fish with a slotted spoon and cool completely before transferring to an airtight container. Add about 1/2 cup poaching liquid to the container to keep the fish moist and chill in the refrigerator until ready to serve.
• Meanwhile, zest the remaining lime and add about 1/2 teaspoon zest to the bowl of a food processor; add the juice from half the lime to the bowl (should be about 1 teaspoon juice). Add the basil leaves, a pinch of salt and a few grinds black pepper and pulse until it begins to turn into a paste. Add the creme fraiche and puree until very smooth. Transfer to a serving bowl and refrigerate until ready to serve.
• To serve, plate the cold salmon with a drizzle of lime basil cream over the top.

Steps:

• Season fish well with salt. In a large sauté pan, heat oil over medium heat. Add shallot, garlic, ginger and chile, and cook, stirring often until they become translucent, about 2 minutes. Season with salt.
• Add coconut milk, fish sauce and brown sugar, and whisk together until combined and sugar dissolves. Bring mixture to a gentle simmer. Add cod fillets and turn the heat down to low. Cover and cook until cod is just cooked through and opaque, about 6 to 8 minutes. Carefully remove the fish and plate in bowls.
• Add bok choy to the coconut milk broth and turn heat to medium-low. Cook bok choy until leaves are wilted and stems are tender, about 1 to 2 minutes.
• Divide bok choy evenly alongside the fish and ladle the coconut milk broth over each portion. Top with cilantro, scallions and a good squeeze of lime, and serve with remaining wedges on the side. Garnish with flaky salt, if desired.

Steps:

• In a small non-reactive heavy-bottomed pan, place salmon, skin side down (keeping the skin on makes it easier to remove the salmon from the pan later). Top with 2 tablespoons of coarsely chopped cilantro, the ginger, garlic, wine, and water.
• Cover and simmer, allowing 8 minutes per inch of thickness, until cooked through (when salmon flakes easily with a fork).
• Serve the salmon with pan juices and garnish with remaining 2 tablespoons coarsely chopped cilantro. Side dishes of rice and steamed broccoli will make the colors pop.

Steps:

• Combine dressing ingredients in a medium size mixing bowl, whisk thoroughly and let stand until ready to use.
• In an 8-inch saucepan, fill 3/4 with water. Bring to a boil. Place 14 inches of plastic wrap on a flat surface. Add 1/2 cup each of yellow, red and orange peppers on plastic wrap. Add 1/4 cup of julienne slices of ginger on top of peppers. Put 1 tarragon sprig on top of ginger. Coat salmon fillet (front and back) with Sylvia?s Secret Herb Seasoning and place on top of veggies. Add 1 tablespoon of white wine and juice from 1/2 fresh lemon. Place tarragon sprig on top of salmon fillet and fold in plastic, tightly. Place plastic wrap in boiling water and let it poach for 15 minutes. Take your favorite choice of green leaf salad mix and place on plate. Place cooked salmon on salad mix. Spoon Asian salad dressing on top of salmon fillet. Add red onion, remaining peppers, sesame seeds and ginger, to garnish.

Steps:

• Boil 1 inch of water in a large skillet.
• Place salmon in the pan; cover and poach gently until just cooked through.
• Meanwhile, boil the wine, lime juice and ginger in a small pot until it is reduced to about 1-2 TBS.
• Turn heat very low over the wine/lime/ginger and whisking constantly, slowly add the cold butter, 1 TBS at a time.
• Pour sauce over the salmon and serve.
