French Quarter Salmon
Recipe Link: source:American Cafe, Town Center Mall List of Ingredients
MAIN DISH: French Quarter Salmon
Makes 4 servings
Preparation time: 10 minutes
Cooking time: 10-12 minutes
At American Cafe, half the sauce for each plate is spread on the
plate. The grilled salmon is arranged crosswise at one end and topped
with sauteed shrimp and remaining sauce. Spicy rice, a steamed
vegetable and half a lemon complete the plate. In adapting the recipe
for home cooks, we reduced the size of the salmon fillets from the 10
ounces served at the restaurant.
4 (6-ounce) salmon fillets
1 to 2 tablespoons butter
1/2 pound (36-40 count) shrimp
1 (16-ounce) jar commercial Alfredo sauce, preferably with roasted
garlic; or about 1 3/4 cups homemade sauce
1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
1/2 cup diced green and red bell peppers
1/4 cup diced green onions (green and white parts)
4 teaspoons Cajun spice
Recipe
Prepare a hot grill and grill salmon until just done, about 10 minutes.
Meanwhile, in a medium saute pan, melt the butter over medium-high
heat. Add shrimp and cook just until it turns pink, 1 to 2 minutes.
Remove shrimp and reserve. In the same pan, combine the Alfredo
sauce, Parmesan, peppers, green onions and Cajun spice. Heat
thoroughly, stirring until well-combined. Place half the sauce on the
serving plates, top with salmon and shrimp and cover with remaining
sauce.
