When leeks cook slowly, they take on a supple, silky texture. The results complement fish, as well as pork or chicken.

Provided by Laura Zapalowski

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 9

Ingredients

2 leeks
1?½ teaspoons butter
1 teaspoon light brown sugar
½ teaspoon kosher salt, divided
½ teaspoon fresh lemon juice
4 (6-ounce) salmon fillets
Cooking spray
¼ teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
? teaspoon ground red pepper

Steps:

Preheat oven to 400°.
Remove roots, outer leaves, and tops from leeks. Cut leeks in half lengthwise. Rinse thoroughly with cold water, and cut each half into 3-inch julienne strips.
Melt butter in a large nonstick skillet over medium heat. Add leeks to pan; cook 4 minutes or until slightly wilted, stirring occasionally. Stir in brown sugar and 1/4 teaspoon salt; cook 20 minutes or until edges are browned, stirring occasionally. Remove from heat; stir in juice. Keep warm.
Place salmon on a baking sheet coated with cooking spray; sprinkle salmon with remaining 1/4 teaspoon salt, 1/4 teaspoon black pepper, and 1/8 teaspoon red pepper. Bake salmon at 400° for 8 minutes or until fish flakes easily when tested with a fork or until desired degree of doneness. Place 1 fillet on each of 4 plates; top with 2 tablespoons leek mixture.
Wine note: Salmon pairs comfortably with red or white wine. But the natural sweetness of the leeks can be a challenge for very dry or tannic wines, making them seem hollow or bitter. Try a Washington State Riesling like Hayman and Hill Reserve Selection ($15). This aromatic white has good weight, lively acidity, and a touch of sweetness on the finish that will balance the whole meal. —Jeffery Lindenmuth

CARAMELIZED LEEK AND FAVA BEAN TOAST RECIPE | BON APPÉTIT

Caramelized Leek and Fava Bean Toast Recipe | Bon Appétit image

Piled high with softened leeks and fresh fava beans, this tartine might—might!—make you forget about avocado toast. Slicing the leeks with the grain prevents them from falling apart into mush after getting caramelized.

Provided by BONAPPETIT.COM

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 14

Ingredients

4 leeks, white and light green parts only, sliced in half lengthwise, rinsed well
¼ cup extra-virgin olive oil
Kosher salt
2 tsp. very finely chopped rosemary leaves
1 tsp. Aleppo-style pepper
1 tsp. finely grated lemon zest
1 Tbsp. fresh lemon juice
2 cups shelled fava beans (from about 2 lb. pods), shelled fresh peas (from about 2 lb. pods), or one 10-oz. package frozen peas, thawed
2 Tbsp. fresh lemon juice
2 Tbsp. extra-virgin olive oil, plus more for drizzling
Kosher salt, freshly ground black pepper
4 thick slices whole grain sourdough bread, toasted
1 garlic clove
Aleppo-style pepper, finely grated lemon zest, and sliced chives (for serving)

Steps:

Slice leeks crosswise into 3" pieces, then lengthwise into thin matchsticks. Heat oil in a large skillet over medium. Add leeks; season with a pinch of salt. Cook, covered, stirring and tossing occasionally (and reducing heat if needed to avoid getting color on leeks at this point), until leeks are soft, 8–10 minutes. Add rosemary, Aleppo-style pepper, and lemon zest. Continue to cook, stirring often, until leeks are golden brown and caramelized, 5–10 minutes longer. Remove from heat and stir in lemon juice; season with salt.
Toss beans with lemon juice and 2 Tbsp. oil in a medium bowl; season with salt and black pepper.
Drizzle toasts with oil and rub with garlic clove. Top toasts with a dollop of caramelized leeks and a big spoonful of dressed beans. Season with Aleppo-style pepper, then sprinkle lemon zest and chives over.

SKILLET CHICKEN AND FARRO WITH CARAMELIZED LEEKS RECIPE ...

This very savory skillet dinner features golden pieces of bone-in chicken nestled in a leek and farro pilaf. You might be surprised to see the leek greens used along with the whites. But, because the slices are sautéed until tender and then simmered with the farro, they turn soft and sweet, and contribute loads of deep onion flavor. (Added bonus: It’s nice to use the whole vegetable.) A simple tomato relish garnishes the top, adding juicy freshness to this hearty one-pot meal.

Discard the thyme sprigs, and serve chicken and farro topped with some of the tomato mixture.
