Coriander Crusted Salmon On Warm Potato And Arugula Recipes

CORIANDER AND MUSTARD SEED CRUSTED SALMON

Steps:

• For the crust: In a bowl, blend the panko, mustard seeds, coriander seeds and parsley together. Season with salt and pepper.
• For the wash: In a second bowl, blend the mustard with 1/2 cup water, whisking well to blend.
• For the sauce: Whisk the yogurt, sour cream, watercress, vinegar, mint and garlic in a bowl. To ensure the spices are blended, scrape the sides and whisk a second time. Hold at room temperature if using within 30 minutes, or refrigerate for future usage.
• For the salmon: Coat the salmon with the wash, and then finish the top side (skin side) with the crust. Repeat the process with each fillet.
• In medium saute pan over medium heat, coat the bottom of the pan with the oil. When warmed, add the crusted side of the salmon to the pan and cook, in batches, until golden brown, 2 to 3 minutes. Flip the fish and finish cooking until desired temperature. Remove from the pan.
• Finally, sauce the plates with 2 ounces of the watercress/mint sauce. Top with the salmon and fresh herbs if desired.

CUMIN CORIANDER CRUSTED SALMON

Steps:

• Combine cilantro shallots, oil, cumin, coriander, salt and pepper in a small bowl, stirring to form a paste. (can be made ahead of time).
• Place fish, skin side down, in a shallow baking dish. Coat with cilantro mixture. Cover and refrigerate for 1 hour.
• Preheat oven to 400.
• Arrange fish on the rack of a roasting pan coated with cooking spray. Bake at 400 for 10 minutes or until fish flakes easily when tested with a fork or until desired degree of doneness.
• Serve with lemon wedges.
• Note: The recipe called for 2 tsp oil, but with the fish being as oily as it is, you can get away with 1 teaspoons.

CHIVE-CORIANDER SALMON AND CABBAGE

Steps:

• Put the potatoes in a pot and cover with cold water; season with salt. Bring to a boil and cook until tender, about 20 minutes; drain and return to the pot. Stir in the butter, 1/2 tablespoon chives, and salt and pepper to taste; cover to keep warm.
• Rinse the salmon under cold water; pat dry. Brush with 1 tablespoon olive oil and season with 1/2 teaspoon each salt and pepper. Heat 1 tablespoon olive oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add the salmon, skin-side down; cook, shaking the skillet occasionally, until the skin is crisp, 5 minutes. Flip the salmon; continue cooking, flipping occasionally and sprinkling with the coriander and the remaining chives, until just opaque, about 7 more minutes. Remove from the skillet.
• Add the remaining 1 tablespoon olive oil, the cabbage and tarragon to the skillet. Cook over medium-high heat, stirring, until the cabbage is wilted, 3 minutes. Season with salt and pepper. Serve the salmon with the cabbage and potatoes.

CORIANDER SALMON

Steps:

• In a small dish, combine the salt, pepper and coriander. Sprinkle over salmon. In a nonstick skillet, cook salmon in oil over medium heat for 4 minutes on each side. Add the garlic, lime juice and hot pepper sauce. Reduce heat; cover and cook 3-4 minutes longer or until fish flakes easily with a fork.

WARM SALMON AND POTATO SALAD WITH CREAMY DILL DRESSING

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Place the salmon on a parchment-lined baking sheet and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Bake until the salmon is cooked through, about 15 minutes. Use a fork to flake the salmon and set it aside.
• At the same time, steam the potatoes in a steamer basket over 2 inches of boiling water until they become fork tender, 13 to 15 minutes. Remove the potatoes and set aside. To the same steamer basket, add the green beans and steam until tender crisp, about 5 minutes. (Check to ensure there is enough water in the bottom pot at all times.)
• In the meantime, whisk the yogurt, Dijon mustard, dill, lemon zest and juice, garlic and some salt and pepper in a small bowl until well combined. Set it aside.
• In a large serving dish, arrange the cooked potatoes and green beans on a bed of arugula. Top with the flaked salmon and capers and then pour on the dressing.
• Serve immediately or store in the refrigerator for 2 to 3 days. (If you're planning on enjoying this the next day, do not add the arugula until just before eating.)

BAKED SALMON WITH CORIANDER AND THYME

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350F degrees.
• Line a baking dish with parchment paper or foil, large enough to fold over and seal.
• Place the fillets in the middle off the dish and sprinkle with coriander and thyme.
• Grind a little sea salt over the fillets.
• Place one or two lemon slices on each fillet.
• The lemon peel can be a bit strong; if you wish, you can remove the peel with a paring knife before putting the slices on the fillets.
• Fold the parchment paper over the fillets and staple or paper clip, or fold the foil and crimp to seal.
• Bake for about 18 minutes.
• When salmon is done remove to a plate.
• Place a fresh slice of lemon on each fillet and a sprig of fresh thyme, and serve.
• Variations: Add some shrimp and scallops in with the salmon.
• Anoint the salmon with a tablespoon of dry white wine or dry vermouth prior to adding the seasonings.
