Pamper your family and friends with these crispy pan seared salmon steaks drizzled with a simple homemade leek vinaigrette.
A salmon steak is cut into cross sections from whole fish and includes the bone, whereas a fillet is cut lengthwise from tail to collar and boneless. It is usually bone in while a fillet is boneless. Since a whole steak is cooked on the flesh sides only, so the skin will not become crispy. You can replace with salmon fillets for the recipe.
Leek Vinaigrette | Salmon Steak |

- In a medium bowl, whisk the olive oil, vinegar, parsley, chilli, mustard and capers and season to taste with salt and freshly ground black pepper.
- Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the leeks to the boiling water and reduce the heat to a simmer. Cook the leeks for about 8 minutes or until they are tender. Transfer the leeks to a pot of cold water to chill completely. Drain the leeks well and cut in half lengthways. Separate the layers to make leek ribbons. In a large bowl, toss the leek ribbons with half of the dressing.
- Season salmon on both sides with salt, pepper and garam masala. In a large skillet over medium-high heat, heat oil and butter. Add salmon steak and cook until bottom is golden, 5 minutes, then flip and cook for a further 1-2 minutes.
- Divide the leeks among 2 dinner plates and top with a salmon steak. Spoon the remaining vinaigrette around the plates and garnish with parsley before serving.
