Serves: 2
 

Ingredients:

1/4 cup butter or margarine
1/4 pound common mushrooms -- thinly
3/4 pound salmon fillet -- skinless and
2 tablespoons shallots -- finely chopped
2/3 cup zinfandel wine
1 bunch chives for garnish
 

Preparation:

Melt 1 tablespoon of the butter in a 10-12" frying pan over medium-high heat. Add mushrooms and cook, stirring often, until they are lightly browned and liquid has evaporated, 6-9 minutes. Remove from pan and set aside. Add 1 more tablespoon butter to pan, swirling until melted. Add salmon and cook, turning once, until fish is just slightly translucent or wet in thickest part (cut to test,) 7-10 minutes total. Remove from pan and keep warm. In frying pan, combine shallots and Zinfandel. Bring to a boil over high heat; continue to boil, uncovered, until mixture is reduced to about 1/2 cup, about 4 minutes. Reduce heat to low. Add remaining 2 tablespoon butter in one chunk and heat, stirring, until butter is melted and sauce is smooth. Place salmon on 2 warm dinner plates; top with mushrooms and chives. Spoon sauce over and around salmon.
