Roasted Salmon With Creamed Leeks Tylers Ultimate Recipes

SEARED SALMON WITH CREAMY LEEK SAUCE

Steps:

• Melt butter in a medium skillet set over medium-low heat. Add leeks; simmer, stirring occasionally, 5 minutes. Add wine, and simmer until leeks are very tender, about 4 minutes. Add cream and 2 tablespoons chives; return to a simmer. Season with salt and pepper. Reserve half; transfer remaining mixture to jar of blender. Add chicken broth, and puree until leek sauce is smooth.
• Meanwhile, heat oil in a large saute pan over medium heat. Season fillets with salt and pepper; place in pan skin side down. Cook until skin side is well browned, about 5 minutes. Turn over, and saute just until fish is cooked through, 3 to 6 minutes more; it should still be slightly pink in the center. Transfer to a platter.
• Serve salmon with leek sauce. Garnish with reserved leek mixture, remaining chives, arugula, and lemon wedges.

PAN-ROASTED SOY-LACQUERED SALMON

Steps:

• In a bowl large enough to accommodate the salmon, mix the sake, soy sauce, mirin, and miso until the miso has dissolved. Add the garlic, ginger, cilantro, and salmon fillets. Cover and marinate for at least 20 minutes and up to 2 hours in the refrigerator.
• Heat the oven to 400 degrees F.
• Season the salmon with salt and pepper on both sides. Heat the oil in an ovenproof nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. When the oil is hot, add the salmon skin side down. Put the pan into the oven and roast until the salmon is cooked medium-rare, about 12 to 15 minutes. Serve garnished with cilantro leaves and lime wedges.

SALMON LEEK FRITTATA

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
• Whisk the heavy cream, eggs, 1 1/2 teaspoons salt and several grinds of black pepper in a large bowl. Gently break up the salmon with a fork in another bowl. Fold the salmon and dill into the egg mixture. Set aside.
• Heat the oil in a medium nonstick ovensafe skillet over medium high. Add the leeks and cook, stirring frequently, until softened, 3 to 5 minutes. Reduce the heat to medium and carefully pour in the egg mixture. Stir with a rubber spatula to evenly distribute the leeks. Sprinkle the goat cheese on top.
• Bake until the center of the frittata is just set, 22 to 24 minutes. Transfer the frittata with a rubber spatula to a serving platter or cutting board. Garnish with chopped dill, slice and serve.

SALMON & LEEK PARCEL

Steps:

• Heat oven to 200C/180C fan/gas 6. Place two sheets of baking parchment (large enough to wrap up each salmon fillet) on your work surface.
• Put the leeks in a pan with 6 tbsp water, cover and bring to the boil. Cook for 5 mins until the water has been absorbed and the leeks are almost tender. Stir in the mascarpone, 1 tbsp dill and some seasoning.
• Spoon half the creamy leeks into the middle of one sheet of parchment and place a salmon fillet on top, then repeat to make a second parcel. Sprinkle over the lemon zest with a squeeze of juice, then scatter over the capers and the remaining 1 tsp dill.
• Bring the parchment up over the fish and join the two edges together by folding them over several times down the middle. Do the same with the ends and place the parcels, spaced apart, on a baking sheet.
• Bake for 12-15 mins, depending on how well done you like your fish, then carefully tear open the parcel. Serve with lemon wedges for squeezing over, baby potatoes and wilted spinach, if you like.

OVEN-ROASTED SALMON

ONE-PAN ROAST SALMON WITH LEEKS, ONIONS & PARSLEY DRESSING

Steps:

• Heat the oven to 200C/180C fan/gas 6. To make the dressing, mash the anchovy on a board, and chop the capers into the mashed anchovy. Scatter the parsley over and chop everything together until it's all finely chopped and combined. Tip into a bowl with the shallot, mustard, vinegar and oil, stir well and set aside.
• Tip the quartered onions into a small roasting tin, drizzle with some of the oil, season, and toss. Roast for 10 mins, then toss the leeks through the onions. Roast for 15 mins more until the veg is golden and soft.
• Lay the spring onions in the tin and the salmon fillets on top, skin-side down. Season and drizzle with the rest of the oil. Roast for another 10 mins. When the salmon is cooked through, remove from the oven and spoon half the dressing over everything. Bring the tin to the table and serve the remaining dressing on the side.

SAUTéED SALMON WITH LEEKS AND TOMATOES
