Pan Seared Salmon And Chips Recipes

PAN SEARED SALMON I

Steps:

• Preheat a large heavy skillet over medium heat for 3 minutes.
• Coat salmon with olive oil. Place in skillet, and increase heat to high. Cook for 3 minutes. Sprinkle with capers, and salt and pepper. Turn salmon over, and cook for 5 minutes, or until browned. Salmon is done when it flakes easily with a fork.
• Transfer salmon to individual plates, and garnish with lemon slices.

PAN SEARED SALMON II

Steps:

• In a large skillet, melt the teaspoon of butter and fry the salmon fillets until they are flaky on the inside and a little golden on the outside.
• In a medium skillet, place the oil, red pepper and yellow pepper; saute for 3 minutes. Set aside.
• In a small bowl, combine garlic and lemon juice. Drizzle over the finished salmon fillets. Place the cooked peppers on top of the filets. Serve immediately.

PAN SEARED SALMON AND "CHIPS"

Steps:

• For the Fillets:.
• Heat Olive Oil in a small pan over medium heat.
• Lightly sprinkle seasonings over meat side of the fillet.
• Place Salmon meat side down in hot oil to sear flavorings into fillet. 2-3 minutes.
• Using tongs carefully flip Salmon to skin side down. Reduce heat to low/simmer and put lid over the pan.
• Let cook until meat is tender and flakes easily 5-10 minutes for thin fillets, longer if using thick cut fillet.
• Making more than one serving is simple and easy, just use a bigger pan! If making a bigger batch of these heat oven to 350, and once the fillet is seared place on a non stick pan with edges, once all fillets are seared place in oven for 5-10 minutes or so to finish the cooking!
• For the Chips:.
• Wash potato and slice into rounds.
• Place in microwave safe bowl and add butter, cover and microwave on high for aprox 4-5 minutes, or until all rounds are tender when pricked with fork.
• Toss rounds with BBQ seasoning (to taste) and Sea Salt.

PAN-SEARED CRISPY SALMON

Steps:

• 1. Season the fish on both sides with salt and pepper. Heat 3 tablespoons of the olive oil in a saute pan. Place the salmon, skin-side down, in the pan and cook (without moving the fish) until the skin is crispy, about 4 to 5 minutes. Reduce the heat, turn the salmon, and continue to cook for another 3 to 4 minutes.
• 2. Meanwhile, heat the remaining tablespoon oil in another saute pan over medium heat. Add the garlic, shallots, and leek; saute for 3 to 5 minutes until the leak begins to soften.
• 3. Add the cannellini beans and the wine; bring to a gentle simmer. Add the butter. Season to taste with salt and pepper.

PAN SEARED SALMON

Steps:

• Remove the salmon from the refrigerator and let stand at room temperature for at least 10 minutes. With a paper towel, pat the fillets very dry on both sides.
• Heat the butter and oil in a 12-inch cast iron or heavy stainless steel skillet over medium-high heat until the butter foams and the foam subsides, about 3 minutes. It's important the pan is VERY hot before you add the salmon, or it won't crisp properly.
• Just before adding it to the pan, season the flesh side of the salmon with 1/2 teaspoon salt and pepper.
• Carefully place the fillets in the skillet, skin-side up, lowering them down away from you to protect yourself from splatters. Sprinkle the skin side of the salmon with a pinch of kosher salt.
• Let the salmon cook on the first side completely undisturbed until the flesh appears cooked about 3/4 of the way up the fillet, about 5 to 6 minutes.
• With a fish spatula or similar long, wide, flexible spatula, carefully flip the fillets. They should release easily from the pan; if they are sticking, the salmon most likely isn't ready yet. Let cook another 30 seconds or so, then try again.
• Reduce the pan heat to medium. Cook the salmon on the other side for 2 to 4 minutes more, until it is done to your liking (I remove the salmon at 130 degrees for medium). Remove to a plate and let rest 5 minutes. Squeeze lemon over the top and sprinkle with herbs. Serve hot or at room temperature.

PAN SEARED SALMON FILLETS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350. Heat a medium ovenproof nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add olive oil. Pat salmon dry with paper towels. Season the flesh-side of the salmon with salt. When the oil is hot, add salmon skin-side down. Sear until the skin is golden brown and crispy, about 5 minutes. Turn and transfer to oven and cook until a cake tester or tip of a paring knife is just warm to the touch when inserted into the middle of the salmon; about 5 minutes for medium-rare and 9 minutes for fully cooked through. Let rest for 2 minutes and serve immediately topped with a pat of butter.
