Sauteed Salmon with Whiskey Sauce Ingredients: 1 tablespoon butter One shallot, minced One salmon fillet (12 ounces) or two fillets (6 ounces each) Salt and pepper 1/4 cup Irish whiskey 1 teaspoon apple cider vinegar 1 tablespoon minced fresh tarragon 1/4 cup whipping cream Lime wedges Directions: Melt butter in medium skillet. Add shallot and sauté two to three minutes. Season salmon with salt and pepper to taste. Sauté salmon three to four minutes per side. Remove to plate. The salmon is not going to have cooked all the way through at this point; that is okay. Add whiskey, vinegar and tarragon to skillet and simmer one minute. Add cream. Season with salt and pepper. Return the salmon to the skillet. Cover and cook one to two minutes per side. Divide fillet in half. Arrange half on each of two plates. Top with sauce and serve with lime wedges on the side. Recipe makes two servings.
