A Successful March Event!

We had a wonderful dinner on March 29th. Everyone loved the dinner and several guests requested the recipe for the Salmon. Pam Larson was good enough to supply it for us. Who knew something so simple to make, could taste so good!!

Garlic Soy Sauce Northwest Salmon

Northwest Salmon - 3 pounds cut into about 1/3 to 1/4 pound pieces

Marinade/Sauce
2 Tbs. Dijon mustard
3 Tbs. soy sauce
7 Tbs. good olive oil or to taste - since you will use this for drizzling over the salmon, I use an olive oil that I would want on a salad.
*1 large garlic clove grated - I grate the garlic, so I don’t get big chucks of garlic when it is used as a raw sauce.

Mix up the marinade and pour half of it into a sealable bag with the salmon. Marinade for about 15 minutes. Cook the salmon. I have grilled, smoked and baked the salmon and it all turned out good. Drizzle the remaining sauce over the cooked salmon and enjoy.

I have substituted shallots when I was cooking for someone who hated garlic and the recipe still worked well.

I am also going to try using it on chicken breasts that I have pounded out and then grill. I think the chicken would be good on a salad with a light dressing.

Hopefully, we will have the Pear Tart Recipe posted here soon!
