Steamed Salmon With Mushrooms And Leeks Recipes

SLOW-ROASTED SALMON WITH MUSHROOM-LEEK BROTH

Steps:

• Heat oven to 325 degrees. Place salmon on a baking sheet. Drizzle salmon with 1 tablespoon sesame oil, sprinkle with salt and roast in the oven until cooked, 25 to 30 minutes. Remove salmon from the oven and let it rest another 5 minutes.
• While the salmon roasts, heat remaining 1 tablespoon sesame oil in a pot over medium. Add leeks and mushrooms, season with salt, and cook, stirring occasionally, until leeks and mushrooms are lightly golden on the edges, 8 to 10 minutes. (Don't worry if the pan seems dry, the moisture that comes out of the mushrooms and leeks will help steam the vegetables and keep them from burning.)
• Add chicken broth and simmer until the broth is infused with mushroom flavor and leeks are tender, 20 to 25 minutes. Season with salt.
• To serve, divide rice among bowls. Scoop salmon by the spoonful onto the rice, and ladle vegetables and broth over salmon and rice. Top with ginger and a drizzle of sesame oil.

ROASTED SALMON WITH CREAMED LEEKS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F.
• Place the veal and tomato paste into a deep, oven-proof stock pot. Drizzle with 1/4 cup of olive oil and season with salt and pepper. Place in the oven to roast for 30 minutes. Add the rutabaga, carrots, celery, onion, and 3 sprigs of the thyme to the pan. Continue to roast for 20 minutes. Remove from the oven and place over a medium flame. Pour in the wine and enough water to cover by 3 inches. Let simmer for 1 1/2 hours, skim any impurities that rise to the surface.
• When reduced by half, remove and strain through a fine sieve. Discard the solids and keep the sauce warm. Season with salt and freshly ground pepper to taste.
• Meanwhile, heat the butter and 1/4 cup of the olive oil together in a large saute pan over a low flame. Add the leeks and 2 sprigs thyme to the pan and let soften for 5 minutes. Add the cream to the leeks and continue to cook until thick, about 10 more minutes. Stir occasionally. Season with salt and pepper and set aside to cool.
• Use a sharp knife to split the fish open like a book, making a slice in the salmon fillet lengthwise from collar to tail about halfway between the skin and the bottom, being careful not to slice completely through the opposite side. Open the salmon like a book with the skin side down on the cutting board. Season the inside and outside of the fish with sea salt and freshly ground black pepper and begin stuffing the salmon. Spread the leek mixture evenly over the fish. Then begin rolling the flesh side in towards the skin side like a jellyroll. The salmon should roll up until the skin covers the outside of the fish again. Secure with kitchen string in several places and coat the skin with extra virgin olive oil.
• Drizzle the remaining olive oil into a large roasting pan and heat over a medium-high flame. Place the salmon in the pan and sear the skin until crispy on all sides, rolling several times in the pan. Carefully place the roasting pan in the oven and roast for five minutes. Slice into 2-inch pinwheels.
• While the fish is roasting, start the mushrooms. Pour the remaining olive oil into a large saute pan over a medium flame. Add the shallots, remaining sprig of thyme, and mushrooms. Let the mushrooms cook for 10 minutes, until they release their moisture. Stir often and let the moisture evaporate. Add 3/4 cup of the sauce. Let simmer until the mushrooms absorb the sauce and then season with salt and pepper. Serve the mushrooms with a pinwheel of salmon and additional sauce.

STEAMED SALMON WITH MUSHROOMS AND LEEKS

Steps:

• In a large skillet, heat oil at medium heat. Add mushrooms, leeks and pepper and cook about 8 minutes or until veggies have soften. Put the salmon pieces on the veggies in the skillet.
• Meanwhile, in a small bowl, mix ginger, soy sauce, sesame oil and garlic. Spread the mixture on the salmon. Cover and cook for about 10 minutes or until the flesh is easy to flake with a fork. Sprinkle with green onion. Serve with quarters of lemon.

EASY STEAMED SALMON WITH VEGETABLES

Steps:

• Combine hoisin and Sriracha in a small bowl; mix well with a fork.
• Place a steamer in water in a stir-fry wok; bring water to a boil.
• Place salmon on the steamer and baste with hoisin mixture. Cover and cook until fish flakes easily with a fork, 7 to 10 minutes. Transfer salmon to a plate; remove steamer.
• Empty water and heat oil in the wok over high heat. Add stir-fry vegetables with any leftover hoisin mixture; cook until tender, about 5 minutes. Serve with salmon.

SALMON WITH CARAMELIZED LEEKS

Steps:

• Preheat an oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C). Line a baking sheet with foil, and spray with cooking spray.
• Trim away the root end, tough outer leaves, and dark green tops of the leeks. Cut the leeks lengthwise into quarters, then crosswise into thirds. Wash the leeks well to remove any grit, and drain in a colander.
• Melt the butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat, and cook and stir the leeks until they have started to soften, about 5 minutes. Sprinkle the leeks with brown sugar, and cook until they turn brown, 15 to 20 minutes. Stir in the matchstick carrots, sprinkle with kosher salt, and cook and stir until the carrots are tender, about 5 minutes.
• Place the salmon on the prepared baking sheet, rub the fillets with olive oil, and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Roast the salmon until the flesh is opaque and flakes easily but isn't dry, about 10 minutes per 1 inch of thickness. Remove the cooked fillets to plates, and top each fillet with 1/4 of the caramelized leeks and carrots.

SEARED SALMON WITH CREAMY LEEK SAUCE

Steps:

• Melt butter in a medium skillet set over medium-low heat. Add leeks; simmer, stirring occasionally, 5 minutes. Add wine, and simmer until leeks are very tender, about 4 minutes. Add cream and 2 tablespoons chives; return to a simmer. Season with salt and pepper. Reserve half; transfer remaining mixture to jar of blender. Add chicken broth, and puree until leek sauce is smooth.
• Meanwhile, heat oil in a large saute pan over medium heat. Season fillets with salt and pepper; place in pan skin side down. Cook until skin side is well browned, about 5 minutes. Turn over, and saute just until fish is cooked through, 3 to 6 minutes more; it should still be slightly pink in the center. Transfer to a platter.
• Serve salmon with leek sauce. Garnish with reserved leek mixture, remaining chives, arugula, and lemon wedges.

STEAMED SALMON WITH PEAS AND LEEKS

Steps:

• Run fingers lightly over salmon fillets to check for bones.
• Saute shallots in peanut oil over medium-low heat until lightly cooked, then set aside to cool. Add 1 tablespoon each of chopped parsley and mint. Rub this mixture over the salmon. Season to taste with salt and pepper. This may be done ahead of time. Refrigerate salmon until ready to continue.
• Place 3/4 cup of fish stock in the bottom of a steamer, and bring to a boil over medium heat. Place fish on rack; cover and steam until fish is cooked through. Cooking time will depend on thickness of fillets: plan on 9 minutes per inch of thickness. When fish is done, remove from steamer, and place each fillet on a warm plate. Set aside in a warm place while finishing the recipe.
• While salmon is steaming, coarsely chop eggs and set aside.
• In a small saucepan, combine remaining 1/4 cup of fish stock with stock from steamer, bring to a simmer, and cook julienned vegetables for 3 minutes. Add peas and cook 1 minute more.
• Remove vegetables with a slotted spoon, leaving juices in pan, and arrange around each salmon fillet.
• Place the saucepan with the juices over medium heat. Bring to a boil, and reduce to approximately 2 tablespoons. Over low heat, whisk in butter, a tablespoon at a time. Season with salt, pepper and lemon juice. Add remaining mint and parsley.
• Garnish the fish with chopped eggs, and spoon the butter sauce over the fish and vegetables. Serve with small buttered new potatoes, if desired.

ROASTED SALMON WITH LEEKS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 425°F In an ovenproof casserole dish large enough to hold all 4 steaks, combine leeks, water, olive oil, and lemon zest. Cover with aluminum foil and bake 20 minutes, stirring once half way through. Remove from oven, push leeks aside, and add steaks to the dish.
• Spoon leeks evenly over the fish, season with salt, pepper, and lemon juice. Return to oven and bake, uncovered, until salmon is opaque, about 10 to12 minutes. To serve, divide the leeks onto four plates and top with the salmon steak.
