CRISPY SKIN SALMON

Steps:

• Preheat the broiler to high.
• Place the salmon about 5 inches from the heat source and cook until the skin is crispy and the fish is cooked through, 7 to 8 minutes.
• In a small saucepan over moderate heat, whisk together the remaining 1 1/2 tablespoons butter, lemon zest, lemon juice, mustard and tarragon leaves. Divide the sauce between 2 plates and place 1 piece of salmon on top of each pool of sauce.
• What Makes This Recipe Really Sing: This is the coolest way to get crispy skin on fish ever and the crispy skin is like a naturally salted and big flavored chip, so it's the best part!

CRISPY-SKIN SALMON PROVENCAL WITH CHARRED RED CABBAGE SALAD

Steps:

• Brush 1 tablespoon Dijon all over the flesh side of each piece of salmon, then sprinkle each with salt, pepper and 1 teaspoon herbes de Provence.
• Heat a large nonstick pan over medium heat and add the olive oil. Place the salmon in the pan skin-side down and let it sizzle until the skin is golden brown and crispy, 6 to 7 minutes. Gently flip with a fish spatula. Add 1 tablespoon butter to the pan and let the salmon cook until the flesh is golden brown and the internal temperature is 130 degrees F, 2 to 3 minutes more. Add the remaining 1 tablespoon butter and the lemon juice, then remove from the heat. Serve the salmon on top of the Charred Cabbage Salad. Spoon the lemon pan sauce over the salmon and garnish with the crispy onions.
• Preheat the grill or a grill pan for cooking at high heat.
• Drizzle the cabbage and onion liberally with olive oil. Sprinkle with salt and pepper. Grill the cabbage and onion until the cabbage is slightly wilted and super charred and the onion is soft and charred, about 5 minutes per side. Remove from the grill and set aside to cool until cool enough to handle. Remove the stems of the cabbage and roughly chop the cabbage; transfer to a medium bowl. Roughly chop the onion and add to the bowl along with the olives, red pepper, orange segments and juice, lemon juice, olive oil and salt and pepper. Toss to combine and adjust seasoning if necessary.

Place skillet over medium-low heat. Increase heat to high and cook until skin is golden brown, 2 to 3 minutes. Turn salmon and continue cooking until salmon is just pink in the center, 1 to 2 minutes more.
• In a medium bowl, whisk together lime juice, grapeseed oil, and remaining 1/4 cup olive oil. Season with salt and pepper. Place a 3-inch round cutter in the center of a serving plate and mound a quarter of the lettuce leaves into cutter. Remove cutter and repeat process on three more serving plates.
