Pan-fried salmon with capers and lemon rose wine sauce topcook.tomathouse.com
Ingredients:
- 4 pcs. (200 – 250 g each) salmon fillet (pink salmon, chum salmon, etc.), without skin
- 6 cups mixed green salad
- 1 lemon
- 3 tbsp. l. olive oil
- 2 small shallots, finely chopped
- 2 tablespoons capers, drained
- 0.5 cups dry rose or white wine
- 3 tablespoons cold butter, cut into small cubes
- 1/4 cup chopped parsley
- 1/4 cup chopped chives
Preparation:
- Preheat oven to 120°C.
- Place the green salad in a large bowl. Grate the lemon zest over the top and drizzle with the juice of half a lemon (set the other half aside). Drizzle the salad with 2 tablespoons of olive oil, season with salt and pepper to taste, and toss.
- Season the salmon fillet with salt and a little black pepper. Heat a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Once hot, add the remaining 1 tablespoon of olive oil.
Add the fish and cook until golden brown, 2-3 minutes. Turn over and cook for another 2-4 minutes, depending on the thickness of the fillet, until done. Transfer the fish to a baking sheet and place in a warm oven to keep warm while you prepare the sauce.
- Return the pan to medium heat and add the shallots and capers. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the onions are soft, 2-3 minutes.
Add the rosé wine and the juice of half a lemon. Bring to a boil, reduce heat, and simmer until reduced by half, about 2 minutes. Whisk in the butter, a few cubes at a time, until the sauce is creamy. Stir in the parsley and chives.
- Serve the fish drizzled with the sauce and garnished with a green salad.
