Seared Salmon With Sweet Potato Hash And Jerk Mango Salsa Recipes

PAN SEARED SALMON I

Steps:

• Preheat a large heavy skillet over medium heat for 3 minutes.
• Coat salmon with olive oil. Place in skillet, and increase heat to high. Cook for 3 minutes. Sprinkle with capers, and salt and pepper. Turn salmon over, and cook for 5 minutes, or until browned. Salmon is done when it flakes easily with a fork.
• Transfer salmon to individual plates, and garnish with lemon slices.

MANGO SALSA

Steps:

• In a medium bowl, mix mango, red bell pepper, green onion, cilantro, jalapeno, lime juice, and lemon juice. Cover, and allow to sit at least 30 minutes before serving.

JAMAICAN JERK SALMON AND MANGO PINEAPPLE SALSA

Steps:

• Combine mangoes, pineapple, black beans, onion, cilantro and 1/4 teaspoon salt in a bowl. Combine remaining 1/2 teaspoon salt, allspice, cumin, thyme, cayenne and cinnamon in another bowl; rub over both sides of each fillet. Heat oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat; cook salmon until cooked through, 5 minutes per side. Serve with salsa.

SEARED SALMON WITH SWEET POTATO HASH AND JERK MANGO SALSA

Steps:

• For the sweet potato hash: Bring a large pot of water to a boil. Blanch the sweet potatoes until fork-tender. Drain and set aside.
• Heat a saute pan over medium-low heat. Add the bacon and cook until soft and lightly crisp. Add the sweet potatoes and pan-fry until the potatoes are lightly browned and crispy, 3 to 4 minutes. Add the garlic and onions, stirring to incorporate into the hash, and cook until transparent, another 4 minutes. Season with salt and pepper. Keep warm and reserve.
• For the jerk mango salsa: Mix together the mangoes and jalapenos in a bowl. Fold in the jerk sauce and reserve.
• For the lemon vinaigrette: Whisk together the Dijon mustard and lemon juice in a bowl. Stream in the oil, whisking until the dressing is emulsified. Season lightly with salt and pepper. Stir in the chives.
• For the salmon: Sprinkle the salmon with salt and pepper. Heat a 12-inch saute pan with the grapeseed oil until hot. Add the salmon and cook about 4 minutes on each side (or until the desired internal temperature). Add the butter to the pan and when melted, spoon over the fish. Transfer the fish to a paper-towel-lined plate to drain slightly.
• To plate: Spoon some hash in the center of each plate and top with a piece of salmon. Spoon some jerk mango salsa on top of the salmon, followed by some lemon vinaigrette.
