Balsamic Pear-Salmon Saute Preparation

Pat the steaks dry with a paper towel, then season with salt and pepper. Set aside. Preheat a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Coat the skillet with butter and heat until the butter foams, then add the steaks. Arrange the shallots and garlic around the steaks. Add the pear halves, cut-side down, around the steaks. Cook for about 5 minutes, or until the steaks are brown on one side, then turn. Sprinkle the fennel seed over everything. Mix the eau-de-vie and vinegar in a cup, then pour over the steaks. Cook for about 3 to 5 minutes longer, or until the steaks are done, the pears are tender, and the liquid has reduced to a thick dark syrup. Serve each dinner plate with a salmon steak, 2 pear halves, and a topping of the shallot-garlic balsamic syrup. Garnish with a generous amount of the flat-leaf parsley.

Accompany with wild-and-brown rice pilaf, then tuck a few sprigs of flat-leaf parsley for a celebration dinner that’s ready in less than 30 minutes. This recipe is easily doubled or tripled.
