V8v Fusion Pan Seared Salmon In Peach Mango Sauce Recipes

PAN-SEARED SALMON WITH A TANGY THAI SAUCE

Steps:

• To make the marinade/sauce, place all marinade ingredients together in a saucepan over medium-high heat. Stir as you bring the sauce to a boil.
• Reduce heat to medium and allow to simmer for 10 minutes, uncovered. The sauce will gradually thicken (the smell of the vinegar is rather pungent as it cooks). When marinade/sauce has thickened, place in the refrigerator or freezer to cool for 5 minutes.
• Place salmon fillets in a flat-bottomed pan or casserole dish (so that fillets aren't piled on top of each other). When the sauce/marinade has cooled (warm instead of hot), spoon 2 tablespoons over each fillet, 1 per side, slathering it over the flesh (reserve the remaining sauce for later). Marinate in the refrigerator 10 minutes or up to 24 hours.
• Place a frying pan or wok on medium-high heat, allowing it to warm up for at least 1 minute before adding the oil (this will help prevent the fish from sticking).
• When pan is hot, add 1-2 tablespoons oil, lifting and turning the pan to distribute evenly. Now place fillets in the pan.
• Allow salmon to fry at least 2 minutes undisturbed before turning. If you turn the fish too soon, it will stick. Instead, allow it to "sear", and it will come freely away from the bottom of the pan.
• Fry the fish 3-5 minutes per side, depending on the thickness of the fish. Salmon is done when inner flesh is no longer transparent. For faster cooking, cover fish while it's frying.
• To serve: arrange on a serving platter or plates. Spoon a little of the sauce over each fillet. Place the rest in a side dish and serve as a dipping sauce (it can be re-heated or served at room temperature).

SPICY PAN-SEARED SALMON

Steps:

• Drizzle olive oil into a medium skillet over medium-high heat.
• In a small bowl, combine spices. Season all sides of salmon filets. Add to skillet when oil is glistening hot.
• Cook for 5-7 minutes on each side or until a crispy, thin brown outside layer forms and fish flakes easily when fork-tested. Do not over-cook, or salmon will be tough.

SALMON WITH MANGO SAUCE

Steps:

• The skin will stick to the pan, so if it comes off easily, trim the skin off the salmon filets before cooking.
• Otherwise, just wait for it to come off during the cooking process.
• Heat enough oil to coat the pan, and then add the salmon fillets.
• Pour approximately 1/3 the mango juice over the filets, then after a few minutes (3-5 depending on how thick the fillet is), flip over and add another 1/3 of the mango juice to the pan.
• Cook the fillet until no longer pink, then remove from the pan.
• Sprinkle with chives and serve with rice.

PAN-SEARED SALMON WITH AVOCADO REMOULADE

Steps:

• Put avocado pieces and lime juice into a food processor or blender and pulse until blended.
• Slowly add olive oil, pulsing, until you reach desired consistency of sauce.
• Add minced shallots (or green onions) and parsley, pulse just until combined.
• Remove to a bowl, add mustard, salt and pepper to taste.
• Coat the bottom of a sauté pan with oil, heat on medium high until almost smoking.
• Season both sides of the salmon fillets with salt and pepper, carefully lay the salmon into the pan, skin side down.
• Cook the salmon until about medium doneness, about 3-4 minutes per side.
• Serve salmon with avocado remoulade sauce.
