INSTRUCTIONS
Combine the salt, sugar and pepper in a small mixing bowl. Combine
both lemon zests and coat the salmon fillets with the zest. Pour a
thin layer of salt/sugar mixture on a cookie sheet lined with
parchment. Place the salmon fillets on the salt/sugar mix. Pour the
remaining mixture over the salmon. Allow to sit refrigerated for 2 1/2
hours. Rub the cure off the salmon using dry paper towels. Do not
rinse. Split the salmon fillets in half horizontally. Grill the
salmon, turning once, until cooked to desired doneness. Cauliflower:
Slice the cauliflower into 3/4-inch slices from the top to bottom.
Chop any excess cauliflower into 1/4-inch pieces. Heat a
heavy-bottomed skillet over a medium-low flame until hot. Brush the
cauliflower slices on one side with grapeseed oil and place in the hot
skillet oiled-side down. Saute until well browned (approximately 8
minutes). Brush the exposed side of the cauliflower slices and turn
over. Saute until well browned. Season with salt and pepper, remove
from skillet and keep warm. Add the chopped cauliflower to the skillet
and saute with the remaining oil until well browned. Set aside for
herb salad. Chicken glaze: Put chicken stock in a medium sauce pot
over a medium-low flame. Simmer to reduce until thick enough to
lightly coat a spoon. (Yields 1/4 to 1/2 cup) Herb Salad: Combine the
salmon (chicken) glaze and lemon juice in a hand-held blender cup.
Slowly add the lemon oil, while blending. Season with salt and pepper.
Mix the herbs, reserved cauliflower and lemon zest with 2 tablespoons
of dressing. Set aside. To plate: Place equal portions of sliced
cauliflower in the center of 4 warm plates. Place a grilled salmon
fillet over each cauliflower slice and top with herb salad. Sauce the
plate with the remaining salmon dressing. This recipe yields 4
servings. Source: "CHEF DU JOUR - (Show # DJ-9546) - from the TV FOOD
