Salmon Piccata

Entree, Seafood

Comments: If you have a couple coming for dinner and want to impress them with your vast cooking skills, this is your recipe. Easy to cook and looks elegant. Just make sure they like fish and, more specifically, salmon. Oh, and you are going to want to buy a spatula made for flipping fish. These are metal and very thin.

Ingredients

  • 1 teaspoon table salt, divided
  • 1 teaspoon pepper, divided
  • 1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil

Directions

  1. Pat salmon dry with paper towels and sprinkle all over with 1/2 teaspoon salt and 1/2 teaspoon pepper
  2. Heat oil in 12 inch nonstick skillet over medium-high heat until just smoking. Add salmon flesh side down. Cover and cook until browned on bottom and registering 125° (for medium-rare ), about five minutes, or 135° (four medium), about seven minutes. Remove skillet from heat and transfer salmon, browned side up, to platter or individual plates.
  3. Return skillet to medium heat.  Add garlic and cook until fragrant, about 30 seconds. Stir in flour and cook for 15 seconds. Whisk in wine, water, capers, lemon zest and juice, remaining 1/2 teaspoon salt, and remaining 1/2 teaspoon pepper. Bring to boil and cook for 30 seconds.
