Salmon With Braised Napa Cabbage Recipes

Steps:

• In a large, deep skillet with a lid, cook bacon over medium until crisp, turning occasionally, 5 to 8 minutes. With a slotted spoon, transfer to a paper-towel-lined plate; set aside. Pour off all but 2 tablespoons fat from skillet.
• Raise heat to medium-high. Season salmon with salt and pepper. Cook in skillet until browned, 1 to 2 minutes per side (salmon will finish cooking in step 4). Transfer to a plate and reserve.
• Add as much cabbage to skillet as will fit; add vinegar. Cover skillet, and cook over medium-high, tossing occasionally. Add remaining cabbage as there is room, until tender, 10 to 12 minutes; season with salt and pepper.
• Stir in bacon, and place salmon on top. Cover skillet; cook until salmon is opaque throughout, 3 to 5 minutes. Transfer cabbage and bacon onto four plates, placing salmon on top.

Steps:

• Heat oil in a medium saute pan over medium heat until hot but not smoking. Add onion, and cook, stirring occasionally, until soft, about 4 minutes. Add cabbage, 1/2 teaspoon salt, vinegar, and 1/2 cup water to pan; raise heat to medium-high. Cook, stirring, until cabbage begins to wilt and liquid has evaporated, about 8 minutes. Transfer cabbage to a bowl; cover with foil to keep warm.
• Lightly coat a large nonstick skillet with cooking spray; place over medium heat. Season skinless sides of fillets with pepper and remaining 1/4 teaspoon salt. Place fillets, skin-sides down, in hot skillet. Cook, without turning, until skin is very crisp and golden brown, 5 to 6 minutes. Turn fillets; cook until flesh is opaque, about 3 minutes. Transfer fillets to a plate, and loosely cover with foil. Keep skillet on stove with heat off.
• Wipe skillet clean with a paper towel; place over medium-high heat. Add mustard and 1/2 cup water to skillet; when the water begins to bubble, whisk until smooth. Cook mixture until thickened, about 2 minutes.
• Divide cabbage among four plates, and top with fillets. Drizzle mustard sauce over fillets. Season with pepper, and serve immediately.

Steps:

• Season both sides of the salmon. Lay out one leaf of napa on a flat surface. Place 2 mushrooms top side down and cover with salmon, also top side down. Wrap cabbage around salmon. Repeat. This can be done up to 2 hours before cooking. Place in steamer for 8 to 10 minutes. Salmon should be served medium rare. On a large plate, sauce completely and place salmon in the middle. Garnish with orange zest.
• In a saucepan coated with oil, saute ginger for 2 minutes then add peppers and scallions. Season then add stock and juices. Reduce by 20 percent. Whisk in butter and check for seasoning. Serve immediately.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400 degrees F. Place medium-sized roasting pan on burner over medium-high heat, add the bacon and cook until crisp. Remove the bacon with a slotted spoon to a plate lined with paper towels.
• Place cabbage in a roasting pan with rendered bacon fat, stir in the vinegar, honey and chicken stock and season with salt and pepper. Cover with foil and roast in the oven until wilted, about 30 minutes. Remove from the oven and stir in the mint. Transfer to a platter and sprinkle with the cooked bacon.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375 degrees F.
• Pat the salmon fillets dry with towels and season with salt and pepper. Heat oil in a large oven-safe saute pan. Add fish to pan, flesh side down, and sear on both sides until golden. Remove from the pan and set aside.
• Add potatoes and all the vegetables, saffron, and tomato paste to the pan and saute until vegetables are translucent. Add the stock and stir well to combine. Add a small handful of fresh herbs, and then place the salmon fillets back in the pan on top of the vegetables.
• Cover and place the pan in the oven for 15 minutes, or until the potatoes are tender and the fish is cooked to your desired degree of doneness.
