The salmon steaks are marinated in lemon juice, then lightly pan fried in butter, and finished in the mango sauce. It is sweet without being too sweet. Ingredients:
20 ounces salmon steaks (2 steaks 10 oz each) |
fresh lemon juice |
2 garlic cloves, crushed |
1 teaspoon dried tarragon, crushed |
2 shallots, chopped |
1 tomato, chopped |
1 large ripe mango, peeled pitted and chopped (or 8 oz frozen) |
2/3 cup fish stock or 2/3 cup water |
1 tablespoon syrup from a jar preserved gingerroot (or from a jar of pickled ginger) |
2 tablespoons butter |
salt & freshly ground black pepper |
Directions:
1. Place salmon steaks in a large, shallow baking dish; sprinkle with lemon juice, garlic, tarragon, and salt and pepper; let marinate in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour.
2. Meanwhile, place the mango, tomato, shallots in a blender or food processor and process until smooth; add fish stock or water and the ginger liquid and process again.
3. Melt the butter in a skillet over medium heat, then cook the salmon about 3 minutes per side; add the mango puree, cover, and simmer 5 minutes more.
4. Transfer the salmon to serving dishes, heat the mango puree and adjust seasonings; pour sauce over salmon and serve.
