Steamed Salmon With Peppers Recipes

STEAMED SALMON

Steps:

• Set the steamer inside your cooking pan and add enough water to just reach the bottom of the steamer. Remove the steamer and set aside.
• Add the grated garlic, lemon slices and fresh dill sprigs to the water. Place the lid on the pan and bring to a boil over high heat, then reduce the heat to low and simmer while preparing the salmon fillets.
• If your salmon has a thick end and a thin end, you can either slice off the thin end and use for another dish or fold the thin end underneath to make it equal to the thick portion. Season the salmon fillets with salt and fresh ground black pepper.
• Spray the steamer with non-stick oil spray and place inside the pan of water. Check the water level to ensure the water does not touch the steamer. Add the salmon fillets and place a tight-fitting lid on the pan and maintain a strong simmer.
• Steam the fish for 5-minutes, remove the lid then using the tip of a sharp knife, check the salmon for doneness in the thickest part of the fish. It should be opaque on the outside and just a little translucent in the center and gives slightly when you press it. That is medium-rare and perfect!
• An instant meat thermometer will read between 120°F and 125° for medium-rare. Between 125°F and 140°F, it's medium to well-done.
• When the salmon fillets have reached the desired temperature remove the pan from the heat and transfer the salmon to individual plates and serve immediately, garnished with lemon wedges and fresh dill.

STEAMED SALMON WITH HERBS AND LEMON

Steps:

• Season salmon with salt and pepper. Steam until just cooked through, 7 to 8 minutes.
• Serve with rice. Sprinkle with herbs and lemon zest.

STEAMED SALMON WRAPPED IN NAPA CABBAGE, PEPPER, GINGER AND SCALLION SAUCE

Steps:

• Season both sides of the salmon. Lay out one leaf of napa on a flat surface. Place 2 mushrooms top side down and cover with salmon, also top side down. Wrap cabbage around salmon. Repeat. This can be done up to 2 hours before cooking. Place in steamer for 8 to 10 minutes. Salmon should be served medium rare. On a large plate, sauce completely and place salmon in the middle. Garnish with orange zest.
• In a saucepan coated with oil, saute ginger for 2 minutes then add peppers and scallions. Season then add stock and juices. Reduce by 20 percent. Whisk in butter and check for seasoning. Serve immediately.

STEAMED SALMON WITH PEPPERS

Steps:

• Combine all ingredients in ZipnSteam Bag (do not use regular plastic bag -- I don't know what will happen, but it probably won't be pretty!) Shake bag to coat fish and peppers. Microwave on high for 4 1/2 -5 minutes. If fish is not quite done, continue cooking for additional 30 second intervals until fish flakes easily.

SEARED SALMON WITH SPICY RED PEPPER AIOLI

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
• For the aioli, chop the garlic and chipotle pepper together on a cutting board to make a coarse paste. Place the paste in a food processor, add the lime juice and roasted red peppers, and purée. Add the mayonnaise, 1/4 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon black pepper and process until smooth. Set aside.
• For the salmon, place a large (12-inch), dry cast-iron skillet over high heat for 5 minutes. Place the salmon fillets on a board, pat dry with paper towels, and rub all over with olive oil. With the fillets rounded side up, sprinkle them with 1 1/2 teaspoons salt and 3/4 teaspoon black pepper.
• Place the salmon in the skillet rounded side down and cook over medium-high heat for exactly 2 minutes without moving! Using a large metal spatula, turn the fillets rounded side up and place the skillet in the oven. Roast for 3 to 4 minutes, until the centers are rare. Cover the pan loosely with aluminum foil and allow the salmon to rest for 3 to 4 minutes for medium-rare or 5 minutes for medium. Serve the salmon hot with the aioli and a wedge of lime for squeezing.

STEAMED SALMON FILLETS WITH HERB VINAIGRETTE

Steps:

• Combine the chopped herb with the scallions, chives, tarragon, garlic, oil, vinegar, mustard, salt and pepper in the bowl of a food processor or blender. Process until the mixture is chopped fine. But overblending will harm texture.
• Add the egg and blend briefly until the egg is coarsely blended.
• Pour water into the bottom of a steamer. Season the fillets with salt and pepper and place them on a steamer rack. Lay 4 basil leaves over each fillet and cover. Bring the water to a boil and steam for 3 to 4 minutes. Do not overcook. The fish can be served hot or cold.
• Transfer the fish to a serving plate. Spoon the vinaigrette over the fillets and garnish with fresh basil leaves.

STEAMED SALMON WITH PEAS

Steps:

• Prepare steamer basket: Bring wine and water to a simmer in a large skillet or wok. Meanwhile, line the top of a small steamer basket with 1 lettuce leaf and a dill sprig. Season both sides of the salmon fillet with salt and pepper and place on top of the lettuce, then place remaining dill sprig over fish. Place the remaining lettuce leaf in the bottom basket and then top with cabbage "cup." Place the peas in the cup. Dot peas evenly with butter and season with salt.
• Steam fish and peas: When the liquid in the skillet is boiling, set the basket with the peas in skillet, rest the salmon basket on top, then secure bamboo lid tightly in place. Steam until peas are just tender and bright green and fish is evenly opaque throughout, 7 to 9 minutes (you'll have to remove the basket to check).
• Meanwhile, make sauce: Whisk together yogurt, lemon juice, and salt to taste. Serve salmon, cabbage, and peas immediately, with yogurt sauce on the side.

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.
