Salmon with Creamy Horseradish Sauce - serves 2
Preparation - 15 minutes
2 tbsp chopped onion
1 tbsp lemon juice
1 tsp peppercorns
2 salmon steaks (5 ounces each)
2 tbsp sour cream
2 tsp prepared horseradish
1 tsp each all-purpose flour and chopped fresh mint
1/8 tsp white pepper
In a nonstick skillet combine 1/2 cup water, onion, lemon juice, and peppercorns; cover and cook over medium-high heat until mixture comes to a boil.
Reduce heat to medium-low and add salmon, cover, and simmer until salmon flakes easily when tested with a fork, 5-6 minutes.
While salmon cooks, prepare horseradish mixture. In small mixing bowl combine sour cream, horseradish, flour, mint, and white pepper; stir to combine and set aside.
Transfer salmon to serving platter; keep warm.
Pour cooking liquid through sieve into bowl, discarding solids. Return to skillet and cook over medium-high heat until mixture comes to a boil; stir in horseradish mixture. Reduce heat to low and cook, stirring, until mixture thickens, 2-3 minutes. Pour over salmon.
Enjoy!
