Ingredients

Grilled Salmon with Red Wine Sauce - 6/21/2004

4 6 oz. each king salmon filets 1 cup Pinot Noir wine
6 blackberries 1 chopped shallot
1 sprig thyme 1/2 cup fish or chicken broth
1/4 cup heavy cream 1/2 lb. butter
Kosher salt to taste Olive oil

Directions

Rub salmon filets with olive oil and place on a hot grill. Grill approximately 5 minutes per side, depending on the thickness of the fish.

To make the sauce, place blackberries in a heavy 2 quart saucepan over medium heat. Add Pinot Noir wine, shallots, thyme and fish or chicken broth. Cook 10-15 minutes until amount is reduced by half. Then add cream and cook 2-3 more minutes until it also is reduced by half.

Cut butter into 1" cubes. Turn heat down to low and slowly whisk in the butter 1-2 cubes at a time until thoroughly incorporated. Do not let the mixture come to a boil or the sauce will seperate. After all the butter has been added, remove from heat and run through a mesh strainer to remove all the solids. Season with salt to taste.

Serve the salmon covered with warm sauce and pea vines sauteed in olive oil. Serves 4.
