GRILLED SALMON ESCABECHE



Grilled Salmon Escabeche image

This recipe yields both tender salmon and crisp skin, while also solving for salmon's tendency to stick and fall apart on the grill. First, cooking the salmon skin-side down the whole time protects its delicate flesh from the intense heat and gets the skin so browned that it minimizes sticking. Then, once it's cooked most of the way through, the fish is transferred to a dish of quick-pickled fennel. Just the flesh is submerged in the brine so it cooks, while the skin above the liquid remains potato-chip crisp. This utilizes the age-old technique of escabeche, in which fish, meat or vegetables "cook" in a sauce of vinegar, oil and seasonings. Feel free to add coriander seeds, onion or other flavorings you like in your pickled vegetables. Serve the salmon and fennel with grilled bread, boiled potatoes, a salad or mayonnaise.

Time 15m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 9

4 (6- to 8-ounce) skin-on salmon fillets
1/2 cup freshly squeezed lime juice (from about 4 limes)
1/4 cup apple cider vinegar or unseasoned rice vinegar
1/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil
1 1/2 teaspoons sugar
1/2 medium fennel bulb, bulb and stalks thinly sliced, fronds chopped (about 8 ounces)
4 fresh thyme or oregano sprigs or bay leaves
3 garlic cloves, thinly sliced
Kosher salt and black pepper

Steps:

  • Prepare a charcoal grill for two-zone cooking over medium-high heat by pouring the coals onto one half of the grill. For a gas grill, heat all of the burners to medium-high, then turn off one of the end burners before cooking.
  • While the grill heats, pat the salmon dry, and set aside to air-dry. In a metal 3-quart dish (like a 9-by-13-inch pan), large (12-inch) oven-safe skillet or a disposable aluminum pan, stir together the lime juice, vinegar, oil and sugar. Add the fennel, thyme and garlic. Season generously with salt and pepper, and stir to combine.
  • When your grates are heating (or on a gas grill, when your grill is nearing temperature), put the dish over indirect heat (where there aren't any coals or where the burner is turned off). Cover the grill and let the fennel mixture warm until the grill reaches temperature, about 5 minutes.
  • When you're ready to grill, season the salmon all over with salt and lightly coat with olive oil. Take the salmon, a tightly folded paper towel soaked with olive oil, a fish spatula and a rimmed baking sheet to the grill. Using gloved hands, transfer the dish of pickled fennel to the baking sheet (or another heat-safe surface, like concrete).
  • Clean the grates with a grill brush, then oil the grates with the paper towel. Add the salmon skin-side down over direct heat (above the flame). Cover the grill and cook until the skin is browned and releases easily from the grates and the flesh is opaque three-quarters of the way up the sides, 3 to 6 minutes, depending on the thickness of your fish. Check the fish often and move it around the fire to avoid flare-ups.
  • As the fish finishes, nestle it skin-side up among the pickled fennel. Let sit for 5 minutes or up to 30, until the fish is cooked through. Eat with the pickled fennel. Leftovers can be refrigerated and eaten cold or at room temperature the next day. (Remove the skin as it will be soggy at this point.)

KINGFISH ESCABECHE WITH AVOCADO



Kingfish Escabeche with Avocado image

Escabeche is a classic Spanish preparation in which you sear fish or meat, then marinate it in a vinegar sauce until it's sort of pickled. Unlike ceviche, which is raw fish "cooked" by citrus juice, escabeche is cooked first. The bracing and acidic vinegar cuts through oily fish such as kingfish (also called king mackerel), herring, or bonito just perfectly. This super simple dish makes a light, flavorful starter that wakes up the taste buds and hits the spot on a hot day.

Yield serves 4

Number Of Ingredients 15

1/2 cup all-purpose flour
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
Four 3-ounce kingfish or mackerel fillets, 1 inch thick, skin removed
2 tablespoons canola oil
1 carrot, thinly sliced on a mandoline
1/2 small red onion, thinly sliced
1/2 red bell pepper, thinly sliced
1/2 cup sherry vinegar
1 tablespoon agave nectar
2 teaspoons mustard seeds, toasted (see Note)
1 bay leaf
1 fresh thyme sprig
2 cups 1-inch diced ripe avocado (see Note)
2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
Fresh cilantro leaves

Steps:

  • Combine the flour, 1 teaspoon salt, and 1/2 teaspoon pepper on a plate. Dredge the fish fillets in the seasoned flour, tapping off the excess. Put a large skillet over high heat and coat with the canola oil. When the oil is shimmering, lay the fish fillets in the pan and cook until well browned, 5 to 6 minutes. You want a good sear, so don't move the fish around, just let it do its thing. Turn the fillets over and sear until just about cooked through, 2 minutes. Transfer the fillets to an 8 × 8-inch baking dish. Scatter the carrot, onion, and bell pepper on top of the fish and set aside.
  • Put a small pot over medium heat and add the vinegar, 1/4 cup water, the agave, mustard seeds, bay leaf, thyme, and 1 teaspoon salt. When the mixture reaches a boil, pour it over the fish and cover with plastic wrap. Marinate at room temperature for at least 1 hour or up to 8 hours in the refrigerator. If chilling, bring to room temperature before serving.
  • To serve, discard the thyme sprig and bay leaf. Divide the fish among 4 small plates and spoon the vegetables and the marinade on top. Scatter some chunks of avocado on top. Drizzle with olive oil and garnish with cilantro leaves.
  • Toasting Spices
  • Put the spices in a dry skillet. Set over medium-low heat and toast, shaking the pan so the spices don't scorch, for just a minute to release the fragrant oils.
  • Avocados
  • Living in Miami, I often use Florida avocados, which are really large, easily four times the size of Hass avocados, with a smooth green skin. Most people think they have no flavor, but I find that while they're not as creamy and rich as Hass, they possess subtle nuances of flavor-plus they're less expensive! Because avocados can vary greatly in size, I call for cup measurements in the recipes.
