Super Sauce Grilled Salmon With Grilled Scallions Recipes

TERIYAKI SALMON WITH GRILLED SCALLIONS AND AVOCADO CUCUMBER SALAD

Steps:

• Preheat an outdoor grill to medium heat.
• Stir together the rice vinegar and 1/4 cup of the Japanese Style Teriyaki Cooking Sauce in a medium bowl.
• Oil the grill grates. Brush the salmon and scallions with oil. Sprinkle with salt and pepper. Place the salmon on the grill, flat-side down, and brush the tops with some of the remaining cooking sauce. Place the scallions on the grill and brush with some of the remaining cooking sauce. Cover and cook until the scallions are charred and tender, about 3 minutes. Flip the fish, brush with the remaining cooking sauce and continue to cook until the fish is almost cooked through (it will cook more after you remove it from the grill), 4 to 5 minutes per side. Remove the salmon and scallions to a cutting board. Coarsely chop the scallions.
• Add the cucumber, avocado and scallions to the bowl with the vinegar sauce and toss. Mound the salad onto 4 serving plates. Plate the salmon next to the salad. Sprinkle with the sesame seeds.

GRILLED SCALLIONS

Steps:

• Prepare an outdoor grill to medium high heat. Brush the scallions with olive oil. Lay the scallions on the grill until you see distinct grill marks, about 2 minutes. Turn the scallions over and cook about 1 minute more. Transfer to 2 plates and serve warm.

BROWN-BUTTER SALMON WITH SCALLIONS AND LEMON

Steps:

• Heat the oven to 325 degrees. Pat salmon dry, and season with salt and pepper. Set aside. Using a vegetable peeler, peel the zest of the lemon in wide strips. Cut the lemon into wedges for serving.
• In a large, ovenproof skillet, melt the butter over medium. When it's foaming, add the scallions and the lemon peel, and season with salt and pepper. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the butter turns brown and smells nutty, 3 to 6 minutes. (If you're using a light-colored pan, you'll see the browned bits in the skillet. If you're using a dark-colored pan, look for dark spots on the white parts of the scallions; those are browned bits of butter and a sign to remove the skillet from heat.)
• Immediately remove from heat, and add ⅓ cup of water. Stir to combine. Lay the salmon, skin side down (if there's skin), into the sauce. Cover the skillet and bake until cooked through, 15 to 20 minutes, or slightly longer if you're cooking a single, large piece. (You'll know the salmon is done when the fish flakes or an instant-read thermometer inserted into the thickest part registers 120 degrees.)
• Eat the salmon with a spoonful of sauce and a squeeze of the lemon.
