Orange Glazed Salmon Over Beet Risotto Recipes

ORANGE-MISO GLAZED BEETS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400˚ F. Put the beets in a large baking dish and add 1/3 cup water; cover the dish with foil. Roast, adding more water to the pan if needed, until the beets are easily pierced with a knife, 50 to 60 minutes. Uncover and let cool. Rub off the beet skins and cut the beets into 1/2-inch-thick wedges; transfer to a medium bowl.
• Combine the orange juice, miso paste, sugar, soy sauce, ginger and garlic in a medium skillet over medium-high heat. Bring to a simmer and cook, stirring occasionally, until thickened and reduced to about 1/4 cup, 8 to 10 minutes. Strain through a fine-mesh sieve and pour over the beets. Season with salt and toss. Sprinkle with scallions.

HONEY-GINGER GLAZED SALMON AND RISOTTO

Steps:

• For the Salmon:.
• Preheat oven to 350º F.
• In a small bowl, combine honey, juice, water, ginger and garlic.
• Pour honey mixture into a 9" x 13" x 2" Pyrex baking dish, arrange fish in pan, skinned side up. Let stand 20 minutes. Turn fish over, sprinkle with 1/4 teaspoons salt and bake for 7 minutes.
• Remove from oven and preheat broiler.
• Brush fish with honey mixture and broil for 7 minutes, (As you can see, the honey mixture started to burn a bit after about 5 minutes, so I took the fish out and it was perfectly done.) or until fish is browned and flakes easily when tested with a fork or until desired degree of doneness.
• For the Risotto:.
• In a medium saucepan, bring the broth to a simmer. Cover the broth and keep hot over low heat.
• In a large, heavy saucepan, melt 2 Tablespoons of the butter over medium heat. Add the onion and saute until tender but not brown, about 3 minutes.
• Add the rice and stir to coat with the butter. Add the wine and simmer, until the wine has almost completely evaporated, about 3 minutes.
• Add 1/2 Cup of the simmering broth and stir until almost completely absorbed, about 2 minutes.
• Continue cooking the rice, adding the broth 1/2 Cup at a time, stirring constantly and allowing each addition of broth to absorb before adding the next, until the rice is tender but still firm to the bite and the mixture is creamy, about 20 minutes total.
• Remove from heat. Stir in the Parmesan cheese, the remaining TBS. of butter, salt & pepper and the basil (if so desired).
• Transfer the risotto to a serving bowl and serve immediately.
