Japanese Style Risotto with Seared Salmon

olive oil (divided)

shiitakes

soy sauce

brown onion (finely chopped)

celery (finely diced)

garlic (minced)

rice (like sushi rice

dry white wine (or sake)

chicken broth

tbsp white miso paste

black pepper (for serving)

chives (for serving)

sesame seeds (for serving)

dry white wine

brown sugar

salmon fillets

olive oil

unsalted butter

seasoning

We start by marinating the salmon fillets. In a shallow dish, combine soy sauce, white wine and brown sugar. Add salmon fillets, coat both sides. Set aside to marinate.

chopping

In the meantime, tear the shiitakes into small pieces, finely dice the celery stalk, mince the garlic and finely chop the onion.

sautéing

Heat 1 tablespoon oil over high in a heavy bottomed pot or skillet. Add shiitakes and cook until they release their moisture. Add 1 tablespoon oil and cook until they start to brown. Stir in soy sauce and cook for 1 minute more. Remove from skillet.

cooking

Reduce heat to medium low and add 1 tablespoon oil. Then add the celery, onion and garlic. Cook for 2 minutes until fragrant. Add rice and toast for 1 minute. Deglaze with white wine, simmer for 2 minutes while scraping up the brown bits from the bottom of the skillet using a wooden spoon.

simmering

Add 2 ladles chicken broth at a time, stirring frequently, until the broth has been almost completely absorbed before adding the next 2 ladles. Cook until the rice is almost al dente, about 15 minutes. It&#39;s possible that you don&#39;t need to use up all of the broth. Stir in shiitakes. Dissolve miso with 2 tablespoons hot broth and add to risotto. Simmer about 5 minutes until the risotto is ready, add more broth if needed.

searing

In the meantime, prepare the salmon. Heat oil and butter over medium high in a nonstick skillet. Add salmon and sear 4 minutes per side.

serving

Serve salmon over risotto, top with black pepper, chives and sesame seeds. Enjoy!

What an incredible dish! Definitely one I'll be adding to my rotation.

This was incredible. I made it for my mom tonight and didn’t make any changes at all to the recipe. The risotto took around 45 minutes. She declared it “the best thing I’ve ever made”.

This was absolutely fabulous! Made it with crimini as that’s what I had on hand. Seared the salmon in a hot pan and it was delicious. Served with some sautéed green beans with sesame oil and seeds on top of all. Thank you!

Great week night meal!  Easy to make, simple ingredients and loved by my whole family!  Second time ai make this…this recipe is a keeper😋

I love the ingredients in this dish. I made the mistake of forgetting to remove the mushrooms and so needed a couple more cups of broth. My biggest struggle is with searing the salmon. I hear its best to make sure your pan is nice and hot (med-high) and I had 5-6 oz portions. I did this and after 2 minutes when I flipped the salmon it was burnt. I turned it down and then took it off after a few minutes and it was raw on the inside. I don't know what I am doing wrong? The salmon had been out at room temp marinading for about a half hour. Any suggestions?

Second time making this tonight and and was delicious. Used Crimini mushrooms instead of shiitake. Easy to make but labour intensive as all risottos are. Impressive enough for guests.

I made this recipe tonight. My husband loved it! I substituted gluten free tamari for the soy sauce. Used Lundberg Arborio rice. It takes a little longer to cook. I marinated the salmon as directed , but opted to put it in the oven instead of pan frying. It was skin on and I didn’t want to risk it sticking to a pan, as I don’t have non stick. I used parchment paper with oil and baked it at 350. Came out fine. I served it with some baby bok Choy that I cut at the base to separate, washed and sautéed with oil, garlic, a splash of leftover chicken broth, a splash of tamari and a squirt of sriracha. I really enjoyed the shiitake risotto. Would make again. Thanks for the idea!

It was ok. Salmon was not very flavorful so we made an additional soy based sauce for it. The rice was ok but this is was not a “flavor bomb” as described in the post.

A delicious, fail-proof dish that&#39;s ready in just 20 minutes. The salmon is seared until crispy on the outside and juicy in the middle, then smothered in a divine sauce enhanced with fresh dill for a fine dining touch. Serve it with buttered potatoes for a quick yet satisfying dinner.

Salmon in Creamy Dill Sauce

salmon

garlic powder

½ tsp sweet paprika

½ tsp black pepper (divided)

salt (divided)

garlic

onion

carrot

⅛ tsp ground turmeric

tbsp all-purpose flour

vegetable broth

heavy cream

lemon juice

dill (more for serving)

Get your prep done before you start cooking: Pat the salmon fillets dry. Season both sides with garlic powder, sweet paprika, ¼ teaspoon salt and ¼ teaspoon black pepper.

Peel and grate the carrot. Dice the onion, mince the garlic cloves and chop the dill.

Heat oil and butter over medium high in a large nonstick skillet. Add salmon fillets and sear 3 minutes per side. Remove from skillet onto a clean plate.

Add carrot, garlic and onion. Sauté for 3 minutes. Add turmeric, and the remaining salt and black pepper.

Add flour and stir until incorporated. Add vegetable broth and simmer for 1 minute while stirring constantly.

stirring

Pour in cream, bring to a simmer. Add dill and lemon juice. Stir until combined. Taste and adjust salt. If the sauce thickens too much, add a splash of cream.

Return salmon to the skillet and simmer for 3 minutes. Finish off with dill and freshly ground black pepper. Enjoy!

Made this today and it is sooooo good!! I carmelized the onions for longer than the recipe called for because I really wanted to get them soft and translucent and golden, and then I added in the carrots and garlic. I served it with baby gold potatoes tossed in butter and garlic and the leftover dill, along with a Caesar salad and it was a 10/10.

Very complimentary for salmon and trout. Great drizzled over vegetables as well. Many may not know however that a brown onion is the same as a yellow onion. Commonly, stores have yellow onion bins, but not brown onion bins. My point is most people are more inclined to try a new reciepe knowing the ingredients are easily accessible. No sense making it complicated. The reciepe is very good and 
worth a try.

Served this at a dinner party and the results were nothing short of FANTASTIC!  I may eat this sauce on shoe sole!
