Salmon Steaks Almondine

Directions

Combine the ingredients in a sauce pan and bring to a boil.

Reduce the heat and simmer until the liquid is reduced by about ⅓.

Strain the liquid through cheese cloth.

Use 1 to 2 cups for steaming the steaks, about 9 to 10 minutes.

The rest of the court bouillon may be saved by freezing.

In a small skillet, melt 1 tablespoon butter over medium heat.

Add almonds.

Cook and stir over medium heat until almonds are light brown, about 4 minutes.

Add 5 tablespoons of butter, the lemon juice and a dash of cayenne pepper.

Stir until the butter melts and then pour over the steamed salmon steaks.

Serve with a fresh fruit salad, au gratin potatoes, broccoli spears and fresh Italian bread.
