Quick Weeknight Meals - Broiled Salmon With Tomato Cream Sauce
Image From foodnetwork.com
1 1/2 cups frozen lima beans
1 1/2 cups frozen peas
Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper
2 tablespoons unsalted butter
1 tablespoon chopped fresh parsley
4 6-ounce center-cut salmon fillets (preferably wild)
1 medium shallot, minced
2 tablespoons white wine vinegar
2 tablespoons tomato paste
1/4 cup heavy cream
1 tablespoon chopped fresh tarragon, parsley or dill
Preheat the broiler. Combine the lima beans and 1 cup water in a medium saucepan over medium heat; bring to a simmer, then cover and cook until almost tender, about 7 minutes. Add the peas, 1/4 teaspoon salt, and pepper to taste; cover and cook until the peas and beans are tender, about 5 more minutes. Drain and return to the pan.
Add 1 tablespoon butter and the parsley; stir to coat. Meanwhile, put the salmon skin-side down on a baking sheet lined with foil; season lightly with salt and pepper.
Broil until browned on top, 6 to 8 minutes. Heat the remaining 1 tablespoon butter in another saucepan over medium heat; add the shallot and cook until translucent, about 2 minutes. Add the vinegar and boil until reduced by half, about 2 more minutes.
Stir in the tomato paste, then add the heavy cream and 3/4 cup water and simmer until thickened, about 2 minutes; stir in the herbs. Drizzle over the salmon and serve with the bean mixture.
