Ingredients
4 salmon steaks, 1" thick - (6 oz ea)
1 cup dry white vermouth
1/4 cup bottled or canned clam nectar
2 tbsp minced shallots
1 garlic clove, minced
1 cup whipping cream
1/4 cup parsley leaves
1 tbsp minced chives
= (or the green tops of green onion
Salt, to taste
Freshly-ground black pepper, to taste
Directions
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees.
Arrange the salmon in a baking dish, without overlapping, and sprinkle with
salt and pepper. Bake for 10 to 15 minutes, until the salmon is just
opaque in the middle. Cover and keep warm.
While the salmon is baking, make the sauce. In a small, heavy saucepan,
combine the vermouth, clam nectar, shallots and garlic. Bring to a boil
and cook until the mixture is reduced to 3/4 cup. Add the whipping cream
and boil until the mixture is reduced to 1 1/2 cups.
Place half the mixture in a blender or food processor. Add the parsley and
purée. Stir into the remaining mixture. If you want a super smooth sauce
you can press the sauce through a sieve, but it is not necessary. Return
to the pot and boil until the mixture coats a spoon, 2 to 3 minutes.
Season with salt and pepper.
Add pan juices from the salmon and the chives or green onion to the sauce.
Place the salmon on heated plates or a platter, pour the sauce around the
steaks and serve immediately.
