Salmon Scampi And Rice Recipes

Steps:

• Heat a large nonstick skillet over medium-low heat and brush lightly with olive oil. Add the bread slices and cook, checking occasionally, until toasted and golden on the bottom, about 3 minutes. Flip and toast the other side, 2 to 3 minutes. While still hot, rub one side of the slices with the crushed garlic and brush with 1 tablespoon of the olive oil. Season lightly with salt and pepper and set aside. Wipe the skillet clean with a paper towel.
• Heat 1 tablespoon olive oil in the skillet over medium-high heat. Pat the salmon dry and season on both sides with salt and pepper. When the oil is hot, add the salmon, flesh-side down, and sear until well browned, 2 to 3 minutes. Flip and cook until the salmon is just cooked through, 2 to 3 minutes more depending on thickness. Remove to a plate and wipe the skillet clean with a paper towel.
• Heat the skillet over medium heat. Add the remaining 1 tablespoon olive oil and the butter. When the butter is melted, add the chopped garlic and red pepper flakes and cook, stirring, until sizzling, about 30 seconds; take care not to let them burn. Add the wine and lemon juice and bring to a boil. Cook, stirring, until reduced by half, 1 to 2 minutes. Add the cream and simmer, stirring, until slightly thickened, 1 to 2 minutes. Return the salmon to the skillet and simmer just to heat through, 1 to 2 minutes. Stir in the parsley and serve in wide shallow bowls with the garlic toast.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
• Stir together the cereal crumbs, pine nuts, garlic, parsley, oil, vermouth, crushed red pepper and 1 teaspoon salt in a small bowl.
• Place the salmon, skin-side down, on the prepared baking sheet. Sprinkle generously with salt and black pepper and cover completely with the cereal crumb mixture. Bake until cooked through, about 20 minutes. Serve with lemon wedges.

Steps:

• Combine olive oil and butter in a large, nonstick skillet and melt butter over medium heat. Add shallots and cook until softened, 2 to 3 minutes. Add garlic and cook until fragrant, about 1 minute.
• Pour in white wine and lemon juice. Season with salt, black pepper, and red pepper flakes and mix to combine. Bring to a boil and cook for 4 minutes.
• Add shrimp and 4 sprigs thyme, and cook until shrimp just begin to change color, 2 to 3 minutes. Remove shrimp from cooking liquid, place on a plate, and set aside.
• Continue boiling the liquid until reduced by half, 3 to 5 minutes.
• Return shrimp to the skillet, remove thyme sprigs, and add parsley. Cook until shrimp are bright pink on the outside and the meat is opaque, 1 to 2 minutes.
• Serve shrimp and sauce over hot, fluffy rice. Garnish each plate with fresh thyme sprigs, if desired.
