GET IN THE KITCHEN
Salmon with Tarragon Mayo
4. Pour the diluted fish broth over the couscous
in a bowl and leave for 3 to 4 minutes for the
liquid to be absorbed. Fluff up the couscous
with a fork and stir in the chopped tomatoes,
scallions, and watercress. Drizzle the olive oil
and lemon juice over it, and stir to blend
everything together. Season slightly with salt
and pepper.
5. Serve the warm salmon with the couscous
salad and the tarragon mayonnaise.
Ingredients: (Serves 4)
Salmon
4 (4 ounce) salmon steaks or fillets
1/2 cup dry white wine
1 to 2 bay leaves
Strip of pared lemon zest
Mayonnaise
4 tablespoons low-fat mayonnaise
1/2 cup plain low-fat yogurt
Finely grated zest of 1 lemon
2 tablespoons chopped
Fresh tarragon
Couscous
1 cup couscous
4 tomatoes, roughly chopped
3 scallions, chopped
2 cups watercress, roughly chopped
1 tablespoon olive oil
Juice of 1 lemon
Salt and pepper
1. Place the salmon in a deep-sided, nonstick skillet.
Pour the wine over it and add the bay leaves, lemon
zest, and seasoning to taste. Bring to a boil, then
reduce the heat, cover, and poach the salmon until
just cooked, about 5 to 6 minutes. It should still be
very slightly translucent in the center.
2. Meanwhile, stir together the mayonnaise, yogurt,
grated lemon zest, and tarragon. Season lightly with
salt and pepper and spoon the mixture into a serving
bowl. (Low-fat sour cream can be used for making
the sauce in place of the yogurt and mayonnaise)
3. When the fish is cooked, drain off most of the
cooking liquid into a measuring cup, and add
enough boiling water to make 1 1/2 cups. Cover the
pan with a lid to keep the salmon warm, off the
heat.

featured panelists: Florence Goff (form Associate CIO,

Institutional Diversity, BMC), Prof. Sharon Ullman
(History, BMC) and Prof. Regina Austin
