STEAMED SALMON WITH SAUCE OF SORREL AND SPINACH

Steps:

• Rub the salmon steaks with salt and pepper. Combine the oil, lemon juice and capers in a shallow bowl. Add the salmon and turn to coat with the marinade. Refrigerate for an hour.
• Scald the sorrel and spinach in boiling water. Rinse under cold water, drain and squeeze thoroughly dry. Mince the sorrel and spinach in a food processor, together with a third of a cup of the cream.
• Combine the remaining one-and-two-thirdscups of cream and wine in a medium-size saucepan. Boil over high heat until reduced by half, about seven minutes. Add the sorrel and spinach and cook two minutes more, stirring.
• Off heat, stir in the butter a piece at a time, whisking after each addition until thoroughly incorporated. Season the sauce with salt and pepper. Add more lemon juice if a tarter flavor is desired.
• To serve, divide the sauce among four plates and place the salmon on top.

STEAMED SALMON WITH A CREAMY CITRUS SAUCE OVER SPINACH

Steps:

• Fish -- A easy way to steam salmon is to individually wrap the fillets in saran wrap and steam right in a colander over a pan of water. No clean up and easy. So, my trick is to set a 10x10 piece of plastic wrap in a small cereal bowl or something similar. Then, set the salmon skin side down on the plastic wrap and top with butter, salt and pepper, 2 orange slices and then 1/4 cup wine. Wrap up the salmon like a little package and you are ready to cook it. Bring a medium pan or pot of water to a boil and set a colander or strainer over the top. This way you will be steaming your fish. As the water comes to a boil, start your sauce.
• Sauce -- In a small pot add the butter and melt on medium heat, add the flour and mix to make a roux. Cook another minute until well combined. Add in 3/4 cup of the vegetable broth, garlic and cream and cook on medium (not boiling) until thickened. It will take about 7-10 minutes. Once thickened, add the lemon and orange juice, parsley and check for seasoning and add salt and pepper to taste. Set on low while you finish the fish and spinach. Before I serve the sauce I add the remaining 1/4 cup broth to thin it out just a bit.
• Fish Steaming -- Your water is boiling and the salmon is wrapped. As you were making the sauce. Just set your 4 packets on the colander or steamer and cover. You just want the water level so it doesn't come up through the colander or steamer. Cover -- I use an over sized lid or even just a piece of foil. Don't worry if it doesn't fit, it is just meant to keep some of the steam inches The fish will take around 15 minutes.
• Spinach -- Sauce is done, fish is cooking. Time to saute your spinach. In a large saute pan, add the olive oil and pancetta and cook 4-5 minutes until golden brown. Add in the onion and cook another couple of minutes. Then add in the spinach and a couple of tablespoons of broth and cook just a few minutes until wilted. I don't like to over cook the spinach.
• Plate -- Place a bed of spinach on each plate. Unwrap the steamed / poached salmon and place each piece on the bed of spinach. Don't worry about the wine in the bottom of the packets, that was just to keep the fish moist as it cooked, but it certainly couldn't hurt to add it right over the spinach.
• Note: The skin should come right off when you remove from the packets.
• Top the salmon with the citrus sauce and enjoy. Serve with some buttered new potatoes.
• Plate the spinach, nicely wilted but still not too overdone, top with the salmon, orange slices and some of the wine and butter and then top with the citrus sauce.
• Add some new potatoes on the side or rice pilaf makes for a very nice dinner.

SALMON, STEAMED SPINACH, AND A LEMON SALAD

Steps:

• Brush the salmon on both sides with olive oil, then season with salt. Get a nonstick frying pan hot. Place the fish, skin side down, in the pan and cook over medium heat for four or five minutes, until the skin has crisped. Turn, cover with a lid, and cook for a further five minutes or so, until the fish is lightly cooked through to the center.
• Meanwhile, make the salad by cutting away the skin and white pith from the lemons with a sharp knife and slicing the lemons thinly. Put them into a bowl with the sugar, olive oil, and a good handful of parsley leaves, left whole. Add the capers and toss the salad gently. Let sit for a few minutes, during which time the sharpness of the lemon will mellow a little.
• Wash the spinach thoroughly, then steam in a lidded pan for a minute or two, until tender. Drain.
• Put the lemon salad and the spinach on warm plates and slide on the salmon.

STEAMED SALMON AND VEGETABLES

Steps:

• Fill a skillet with 1/2 inch water. Add frozen beans, turn heat to high, and allow beans to thaw and cook, about 10 minutes.
• Meanwhile, mince garlic, cut mushrooms and onion into slices, and slice orange into rings. Layer into the skillet in that same order and sprinkle Italian seasoning on top. Place salmon steaks on top and sprinkle heavily with seafood seasoning.
• Reduce heat to medium, cover, and cook until fish flakes easily with a fork, about 10 minutes. Serve with green beans.
