Luscious, buttery salmon gets the fusion treatment in Chef Walther’s tantalizing blend of Peruvian and Japanese cuisines. Traditionally, anticuchos are marinated, skewered, and grilled meats, with roots dating back to ancient Andean cultures. Here, Chef Walther starts with salmon, and bathes each fillet in a marinade of spicy/smoky aji panca chiles and red miso paste for extra depth of savory flavor, then roasts to perfection and tops with a spoonful of bright, acidic chimichurri sauce. He plates it with nutty, protein-packed quinoa tossed in a tangy red-wine vinaigrette, along with diced red onion, sweet roasted red bell pepper and corn, fresh herbs, and toasted walnuts. On the side: tender-crisp roasted Brussels sprouts. Pour the citrusy/salty ponzu sauce over everything, and dig in to a meal that’s as healthy as it is hearty.
