Categories     Dinner, Main course

Time 20m

Number Of Ingredients 8

2 sweet potatoes
1 tbsp olive oil or rapeseed oil
2 salmon fillets, skin removed
2 garlic cloves, thinly sliced
170g baby spinach
1 lemon, zested and ½ juiced, ½ thinly sliced
75g mascarpone
5 tbsp milk

Steps:

  • Heat oven to 200C/180C fan/gas 6. Pierce the sweet potatoes a few times each and microwave on high for 5 mins until soft (alternatively, bake for 35-40 mins). Keep warm until ready to serve.
  • Heat half the oil in a frying pan and lightly brown the salmon on both sides - don't worry about it being cooked through at this point. Transfer the salmon to a plate, wipe out the pan and heat the remaining oil. Cook the garlic for 30 seconds, without letting it brown, then add the spinach, lemon zest and juice and some seasoning. Stir in the mascarpone and 2 tbsp of the milk and cook until the spinach has wilted.
  • Tip the spinach mix into an ovenproof dish and top with the lemon slices and salmon fillets. Bake for 5-8 mins until the salmon is cooked through.
  • Meanwhile, scoop the sweet potato flesh from the skins and mash with the remaining milk and some seasoning. Serve the sweet potato mash alongside the salmon and creamy spinach.

SALMON SPINACH SALAD



Salmon Spinach Salad image

I have always loved the combination of salmon and orange, but the great thing about this salad is being able to do variations. If you don't have goat cheese, try feta. -Stephanie Matthews, Tempe, Arizona

SPINACH SALAD WITH GRILLED SALMON AND STRAWBERRIES



Spinach Salad with Grilled Salmon and Strawberries image

This beautiful salad is delicious and nutritious, too! Grilled salmon is combined with fresh spinach, red bell pepper, fresh mushrooms, and fresh strawberries. Garnished with chopped pecans and a bit of crumbled bacon--leave out the bacon, if you must. I justify it because there is no added sugar in the vinaigrette.

Categories     Salad     Green Salad Recipes     Spinach Salad Recipes

Time 35m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 12

4 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
4 tablespoons high-quality balsamic vinegar
1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
salt and ground black pepper to taste
1 pound salmon filets, with skin
salt and pepper to taste
1 (5 ounce) package fresh baby spinach
1 medium red bell pepper, chopped
8 medium fresh mushrooms, sliced
16 large fresh strawberries, sliced
4 tablespoons chopped pecans
4 slices cooked bacon, crumbled

Steps:

  • Combine olive oil, balsamic vinegar, Dijon mustard, salt, and pepper in a small bowl for the vinaigrette. Stir briskly to combine.
  • Brush salmon with 1 teaspoon of the vinaigrette on the cut side, and season with salt and pepper. Reserve the remaining vinaigrette.
  • Clean the grates of an outdoor grill and preheat to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
  • Place the salmon on a grilling mat or fish grill basket on the hot grill, skin side down. Grill for about 10 minutes. Using a turner, carefully flip the salmon, or turn the grill basket, and cook for 4 to 5 minutes more. Salmon should flake easily with a fork when done. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 145 degrees F (63 degrees C).
  • Transfer salmon to a plate, tent with foil, and allow to rest while preparing the salad.
  • Combine spinach, red bell pepper, mushrooms, strawberries, and reserved vinaigrette in a large bowl. Toss to combine. Remove skin from salmon and flake.
  • Divide salad among individual plates, top with flaked salmon, and garnish with chopped pecans and crumbled bacon.

SALMON, STEAMED SPINACH, AND A LEMON SALAD



Salmon, Steamed Spinach, and a Lemon Salad image

Categories     Salad     Side     Steam     Lemon     Salmon     Spinach

Yield enough for 2

Number Of Ingredients 9

salmon - two 8-to 9-ounce (225 to 250g) pieces
olive oil
spinach - 1 pound (500g)
For the Salad
lemons - 2
superfine sugar - 2 teaspoons
olive oil - 2 tablespoons
flat-leaf parsley - a small bunch
capers - a heaping tablespoon

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.
