The cooking method I describe below is one I use all the time when cooking fish. It\u2019s quick, easy and almost fool-proof! This recipe also works with halibut or rockfish. I\u2019m sure it would work with pretty much any fish\u2026so try it with whatever your favorite is! I\u2019m lucky in that my Dad likes to go to Alaska every year to fish for salmon and halibut. I end up with a freezer full of amazing fish to work with. If that\u2019s not what your Dad does, don\u2019t fret, I\u2019ve also bought frozen salmon and halibut at Trader Joe\u2019s and Costco, and both are pretty good.<\/p>\n
–\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 4 filets of salmon<\/p>\n
–\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 1 \u00bd cups of dry white wine (you could also use broth)<\/p>\n
–\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 1 fresh tomato, cut into little chunks<\/p>\n
–\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 4 green onion sprigs, sliced up<\/p>\n
–\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 1 cup of fresh spinach, chopped<\/p>\n
–\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 3 cloves garlic, minced<\/p>\n
–\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 1\/3 cup of crumbled gorgonzola cheese<\/p>\n
Start with a really hot skillet and add a bit of olive oil or other fat (I actually used bacon fat)<\/p>\n
Put the salmon skin side down and let it sear well, about 5 minutes.<\/p>\n
Turn the heat down to simmer and add the wine. Cover.<\/p>\n
Let it poach\/steam for about 5-7 more minutes. The cooking time varies on how thick the filets are and how you like them cooked. I like them with a little pink left in the middle.<\/p>\n
When they\u2019re done, pull the salmon out onto your serving platter, cover with the skillet lid to keep warm.<\/p>\n
Add the remaining ingredients to your skillet and reduce for about 3 minutes. Just long enough to warm everything and let the gorgonzola melt into the wine. You want the tomato and green onion to stay pretty fresh. Pour the sauce over the salmon and serve! I think you\u2019re really gonna like this one!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
