mmmm mercury filled salmon.....
Salmon with Lemon-Shallot Relish and Prosciutto Chips
Total Time: 30 minutes 6 servings
4 thin slices of prosciutto (about 2 ounces) cut crosswise into 1/2-inch strips 5 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil Six 6-ounce skinless salmon fillets Salt and freshly ground pepper 2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice 2 tablespoons snipped chives 2 small shallots, very finely chopped 2 teaspoons finely grated lemon zest Lemon wedges, for serving
1. Preheat the oven to 400 degrees. Lay the prosciutto strips on a rimmed baking sheet in a single layer and bake for 8 minutes, or until crisp. Transfer the prosciutto to a plate.
2. Brush the baking sheet with 1 tablespoon of the olive oil and arrange the salmon fillets, skinned side down, on the sheet; season with salt and pepper. Roast the salmon for about 10 minutes, or until just cooked through.
3. Meanwhile, in a small bowl, combine the lemon juice with the chives, shallots, and lemon zest. Slowly whisk in the remaining 4 tablespoons of olive oil and season with salt and pepper. When the salmon is done, transfer the fillets to plates, top with the lemon-shallot relish and crisp prosciutto and serve at once with lemon wedges.
WINE SUGGESTIONS: 1999 Franciscan Oakville Estate Cuvee Sauvage or the 2000 Patz & Hall Napa Valley.
