Sweet Soy Salmon With Scallion Rice Recipes

YAKITORI-STYLE SALMON WITH SCALLIONS AND ZUCCHINI

Steps:

• In a small saucepan, heat 1 tablespoon oil over medium-low. Add garlic and ginger and cook, stirring, until fragrant, 1 minute. Add 2/3 cup water, plus the soy sauce, sugar and vinegar, and bring to a boil over high heat.
• Reduce heat to low and simmer, stirring to dissolve the sugar, 1 to 2 minutes. Mix cornstarch with 2 tablespoons water and whisk into sauce. Simmer until thickened, about 2 minutes. Reserve 1 cup of sauce for basting, and transfer remaining sauce to a small bowl, for serving.
• Heat a grill, or a lightly greased cast-iron griddle or grill pan over medium. Season zucchini and scallions with salt and pepper and toss with 2 tablespoons oil. Thread onto wooden skewers that have been soaked in water or metal ones. Season salmon with salt and pepper and toss with remaining 1 tablespoon oil. Thread onto skewers.
• Grill, basting with sauce and turning every few minutes, until salmon and vegetables are caramelized and cooked through, about 10 to 12 minutes for salmon and 12 to 15 minutes for vegetables. Serve with lemon wedges and reserved sauce for dipping.

SWEET GLAZED SALMON

Steps:

• Heat 1/4 teaspoon olive oil in a small skillet over medium-high heat. Saute garlic in hot oil until just beginning to brown.
• Mix sauteed garlic, soy sauce, lemon juice, honey, 1/2 teaspoon olive oil, brown sugar, sea salt, black pepper, and red pepper flakes together in a bowl; pour into a large resealable plastic bag. Add salmon fillets, turning to coat with the marinade, squeeze bag to remove excess air, and seal the bag. Marinate in the refrigerator for 1 hour.
• Remove salmon from the marinade and shake to remove excess liquid. Reserve 3 tablespoons marinade and discard remainder.
• Heat 1 tablespoon olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Arrange salmon fillets in the hot skillet, pour reserved marinade over the salmon, and place a lid on the skillet; cook until salmon is browned on each side and flakes easily with a fork, occasionally spooning liquid from the pan over the fillets, 2 to 3 minutes per side. Garnish salmon with additional sea salt and black pepper.

SWEET CHILI-GLAZED SALMON, SUGAR SNAPS AND RICE

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F. Coat a sheet pan with cooking spray.
• Combine the rice, 2 1/2 cups water and 1/4 teaspoon of the salt on the sheet pan. Bake for 20 minutes.
• Meanwhile, whisk the sugar, lime juice, fish sauce, chili-garlic sauce and cornstarch in a small bowl to make the glaze. Combine the sugar snaps with the oil and 1/4 teaspoon of the salt in a separate bowl.
• Season the salmon with the remaining 1/4 teaspoon salt. After the rice has cooked for 20 minutes, place the salmon, skin side down, on the sheet pan (directly on top of the rice) and brush it with about one-third of the chili glaze. Roast for 5 minutes, again brush the salmon with about one-third of the glaze and add the sugar snaps to the pan. Roast another 5 minutes and brush with the remaining glaze. Roast until the salmon is just translucent in the center and the sugar snaps are crisp-tender, about 5 minutes more.

SWEET SOY SALMON WITH SCALLION RICE

Steps:

• Position an oven rack about 4-inches below the heat source and preheat the broiler. Line a baking sheet with foil and coat with cooking spray.
• Melt the butter in a medium saucepan over medium heat, add the scallion whites and cook, stirring occasionally, until soft and translucent, about 3 minutes. Add 1 1/2 cups water, the rice and 1/2 teaspoon salt. Increase the heat to medium-high and bring to a simmer. Stir a few times, cover, reduce the heat to low and simmer until the rice is tender and the water is absorbed, about 17 minutes. Remove from the heat and set aside.
• Meanwhile, stir together the honey, lime juice and soy until smooth. Put the salmon, skin side-down, on the prepared baking sheet. Sprinkle with salt and pepper. Broil, basting 3 to 4 times with the sauce, until just cooked through, 6 to 7 minutes.
• Fluff the rice and stir in the scallion greens. Divide among 4 plates and top with a piece of salmon. Sprinkle the fish with sesame seeds. Serve with lime wedges.

SHEET-PAN SALMON AND EGGPLANT WITH XO SAUCE

Steps:

• Drain the mussels and reserve the liquid. (You should have about 2 tablespoons of liquid.) Finely chop half of the mussels, reserving the rest for another future use. Set aside chopped mussels and liquid.
• Heat oven to 425 degrees. On a rimmed baking sheet, combine eggplant and 2 tablespoons oil; season with salt and pepper. Toss to evenly coat, arrange skin side down and roast until tender, 15 minutes.
• Meanwhile, in a small saucepan, combine 1/2 cup oil and the shallot over medium; bring to a simmer. Reduce heat to low and cook, stirring occasionally, until shallot is softened, 3 minutes.
• Add garlic and ginger to the shallot oil and cook, stirring occasionally, until just light golden, 3 to 4 minutes. Add prosciutto and cook, stirring, until well combined, 1 minute. Add Shaoxing wine and cook for 1 minute.
• Stir in chopped mussels and reserved mussel liquid, sugar, chile, soy sauce, oyster sauce and fish sauce, and bring to a simmer. Cook, stirring occasionally, until thickened and slightly reduced, about 5 minutes. You should have about 1 cup of sauce.
• Spread 1/4 cup of the XO sauce on top of the eggplant and move to one side of the baking sheet. Rub salmon with the remaining 2 tablespoons oil and season with salt. Arrange salmon next to eggplant, skin side down, and roast until it's cooked through and the eggplant is golden, about 10 minutes longer.
• Divide salmon and eggplant among plates. Spoon some XO sauce over salmon, garnish with scallions and serve alongside steamed rice, if you like.
