Get the freshest ground star anise by making your own. It's as easy as grinding a few star anise pods in a spice mill or a coffee grinder. Ingredients:
1 tablespoon toasted sesame oil (such as asian) |
4 6-ounce wild salmon fillets with skin |
1 cup chopped red onion |
2 teaspoons minced peeled fresh ginger |
3/4 teaspoon freshly ground star anise |
1/4 to 1/2 teaspoon dried crushed red pepper |
4 plum tomatoes, seeded, chopped |
2 tablespoons soy sauce |
1 1/2 tablespoons sugar |
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 325°F. Heat oil in large nonstick skillet over medium heat. Add salmon, skin side down; cook 2 minutes. Cover pan; cook salmon 2 minutes longer. Transfer salmon, skin side down, to baking sheet. Place in oven; cook until just opaque in center, about 8 minutes. 2. Meanwhile, heat same skillet over medium heat. Add onion and next 3 ingredients; sauté until onion is golden, about 5 minutes. Stir in tomatoes, soy sauce, and sugar. Increase heat to medium-high and cook mixture until slightly thickened, stirring occasionally, about 3 minutes. 3. Divide salmon among 4 plates and top with tomato sauce. |
