Salmon Meuniere Recipe

Easy Salmon Meuniere Recipe

Ingredients

  •  1/4 cup all-purpose flour
  •  1 1/4 teaspoons kosher salt — divided
  •  ½ teaspoon black pepper
  •  2 6-ounce salmon fillets, skins removed
  •  2 tablespoons unsalted butter
  •  1/2 teaspoon grated lemon zest — about ½ lemon
  •  3 tablespoons freshly squeezed lemon juice — about 1 small lemon
  •  1 tablespoon finely chopped fresh parsley
  •  1 tablespoon drained capers

Instructions

  1. Place a rack in the center of your oven and preheat to 425 degrees F.
  2. In a large, shallow plate (a pie dish works well), combine the flour, 1 teaspoon salt, and pepper. Pat the salmon fillets dry with paper towels and sprinkle the remaining ¼ teaspoon salt over the top.
  3. Melt the butter in a large (12-inch) oven safe cast iron skillet or similar sturdy-bottomed oven safe skillet over medium heat. Continue to heat, swirling the pan periodically, until it begins to brown.
  4. Reduce the heat to medium-low. Dredge both sides of the salmon fillets in the flour mixture. Shake off the excess then gently place them in the hot butter, top-side down. Cook without disturbing them for 3 minutes, until the top is golden brown. When the salmon turns opaque on the sides and starts to turn opaque on top, use a flexible spatula to flip the salmon.
  5. Add the lemon zest and lemon juice to the pan. Place the skillet immediately into the oven and let cook for 6 minutes (the salmon will appear a little undercooked in the center but will finish cooking as it rests). Remove from the oven and cover with foil. Let rest 4 to 5 minutes.
  6. To serve, place each piece of salmon on a plate and spoon the pan sauce liberally over the top. Sprinkle with fresh parsley and capers. Season with additional salt and pepper to taste. Enjoy immediately.

Recipe Notes

  • TO STORE: Let your cooked salmon meuniere cool, and then place it in an airtight storage container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days.
  • TO REHEAT ON THE STOVE: Heat a skillet over medium-low heat. Drizzle a teaspoon of olive oil in the pan so that the salmon does not dry out or stick to the pan. After about a minute, add your salmon piece to the skillet and let it heat for about 5 minutes per side until warm.
  • TO REHEAT IN THE MICROWAVE: Place your salmon meuniere on a microwave-safe plate, cover it with a paper towel, and microwave for 30 seconds. After 30 seconds, I suggest checking your salmon, adjusting it for even heating, and continuing to microwave if necessary.
  • TO FREEZE: To freeze your salmon meuniere, place it in an airtight freezer-safe storage container for up to 2 months. Let thaw overnight in the refrigerator before reheating.

Leftover Mashed Potato Pancakes With Cheese INGREDIENTS 2 cups cold mashed potatoes 2 large eggs 2 oz finely shredded cheddar cheese 6 tablespoons flour or more depending on how creamy your potatoes are Oil or nonstick cooking spray, for frying INSTRUCTIONS Make potato cake batter: Stir the mashed potatoes, eggs, cheese and flour together in a large bowl. Start with 6 tablespoons of flour and add more if needed. You should end up with a slightly sticky, soft dough that can be shaped into disks. Shape cakes: With a cookie scoop, scoop out balls from the potato dough and flatten them into thick discs between damp hands. Making your hands slightly wet will prevent the dough from sticking to them. Cook cakes: Heat the oil or nonstick cooking spray in a large frying pan over medium heat. Place the potato cakes in the hot frying pan and cook them until golden brown on either side, about 3-5 minutes each. Serve hot. NOTES Don’t let the cakes stand for too long once their cooked, as they will
