Ingredients:

Serving

2 (6 oz) salmon fillets
essence , recipe follows
1/4 cup dijon mustard
1 cup chopped fresh mild herbs
salt and pepper
2 tbsp minced shallots
1 tsp minced garlic
1/2 cup white wine
1/2 lb butter, cut into 1-inch cubes, cold
1/2 lb asparagus, blanched
1 cup brabant potatoes, (1/2 by 1/2-inch cube)
3 tbsp olive oil
1/4 cup fresh chervil sprigs
2 1/2 tbsp paprika
2 tbsp salt
2 tbsp garlic powder
1 tbsp black pepper
1 tbsp onion powder
1 tbsp cayenne pepper
1 tbsp dried leaf oregano
1 tbsp dried thyme

Directions:

Preheat the fryer. For the salmon: Season each side of the salmon with Essence. Evenly coat each side of the fillets with the Dijon mustard. With the chopped herbs, crust each side of the salmon completely. For the sauce: Fry the potatoes for 3 to 4 minutes or until golden. Remove and set aside on a paper-lined plate. Season with salt and pepper. In a saute pan, combine the shallots, garlic, and wine together. Bring up to a boil and reduce to a simmer. Reduce the wine by half, about 2 to 3 minutes. With a whisk, mount in the butter cubes one at a time until all are fully incorporated and slightly thick. Season with salt and pepper. Add the asparagus and potatoes, continue to simmer for 2 to 3 minutes. Re-season if needed. For the salmon: In a saute pan, heat the olive oil. When the pan is smoking hot, add the salmon. Saute the salmon for 2 to 3 minutes on each side for medium rare. Place the sauce in the center of the plate. Place the salmon directly on top. Garnish with fresh chervil sprigs and Essence.
Essence (Emeril's Creole Seasoning):
