Directions
- In a skillet heat oil. Add in shallots and saute/fry till golden brown. Add in chicken stock and white wine; simmer till liquid is reduced to one-third. Set aside.
- Remove skin from salmon; throw away. Cut filet into 6 equal pcs. Cut a pocket into one side of each salmon piece.
- In a small bowl, combine oysters, chives, lime juice, salt and pepper to taste, and sufficient walnut oil to help mix hold together; mix well. Place equal amounts of stuffing into each salmon pocket. Season salmon with salt and pepper; brush with walnut oil.
- Place salmon in center of cooking grate. Grill 6 to 8 min till salmon is opaque and stuffing is heated through, turning once halfway through grilling time.
- Meanwhile, return sauce to a simmer. Mix together egg yolks, mustard, and saffron; gently fold into sauce. Return to a simmer. Adjust seasoning with salt and pepper. Mix in whipped cream.
- Place an equal amount of sauce on individual plates. Top each with one salmon fillet and garnish with dill, if you like.
- This recipe yields 6 servings.
- Wine Recommendation: A round, full-bodied, mouth-filling white, please. Chardonnay, Sauvignon Blanc, or possibly a white Rhone. You may just purr.
- Beer Recommendation: A rich, silky stout will act like a thick, burnt cream sauce for the smoky oysters and sultry salmon.
- Comments: Tonight try a grilled center-cut salmon steak made even more enticing with an oyster stuffing.
