October 10, 2016Holly Rodricks

What can I say about this one? Just thinking about it makes my mouth water. Sweetness, spiciness, and a wonderful tanginess collide to make the most delectable of dishes.

Pan Seared Salmon with Arugula and Candy Striped Beets
By Holly Rodricks
Makes 2 servings.

Ingredients:

  • 2 Salmon fillets
  • 1 cup Candy Striped Beets, peeled and diced large
  • 2 handfuls Arugula
  • 1/2 cup hearty Grain of choice, (Brown Rice, Cous Cous, Farro, Quinoa, etc.)
  • 1 inch piece of fresh Ginger, grated or minced finely
  • 1 Shallot, minced
  • 6-7 tbsp. Olive Oil or Ghee, divided (or Oil of choice)
  • 2 tbsp. Maple Syrup
  • 1 tbsp. fresh Lemon Juice or 1 tbsp. Wine Vinegar
  • pinch of Cayenne Pepper (Optional)
  • Salt and Pepper, to taste

Instructions:

  1. Preheat oven to 375º.
  2. Place diced Beets on rimmed baking sheet. Toss in 1-2 tbsp. of Oil until evenly coated and generously sprinkle with Salt and Pepper. Bake for 30-40 minutes or until fork-tender.
  3. While Beets are baking, cook Grain according to package instructions. When Grain is completely cooked but still hot, remove from heat, add Arugula, Salt and Pepper to taste, and a drizzle of Oil. Stir until mixed well and set aside.
  4. Generously sprinkle each side of the Salmon fillets with Salt and Pepper. Whisk remaining Oil, Maple Syrup, Lemon Juice, Cayenne, Shallots, and Ginger.
  5. When Grain is ready and Beets have just come out of the oven, place medium-sized skillet over high heat. Add liquid marinate to pan. Lay Salmon fillets into pan and do not disturb for 2-3 minutes, until side of fillet touching pan is caramelized and separates easily from skillet.  Flip and cook for a remaining 2-3 minutes or until fillets reach desired level of “done-ness.”
  6. Plate Grain, lay Salmon on top, and sprinkle with roasted Beets. Serve and enjoy!
