Apricot Ale Glazed Salmon

Recipe Ingredients

2 teaspoons	10ml	Olive oil
1 lb	454g / 16oz	Salmon fillets - cut in 4 pieces
8		Dried apricot halves - finely diced
1/4 cup	59ml	Honey wheat beer
2 tablespoons	30ml	Lemon juice
1/4 teaspoon	1.3ml	Salt
		Freshly ground black pepper - to taste
1 tablespoon	15ml	Butter
1 tablespoon	15ml	Chives - snipped

Recipe Instructions

In a large nonstick skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat until hot. Place the salmon, meaty side down, in the skillet and cook 1 minute. Turn carefully with a wide spatula.

Turn heat to medium-low. Add apricots, beer, 1 tablespoon lemon juice, salt and pepper. Cover the pan and cook about 12 minutes per inch of thickness, or until the salmon tests done in its thickest part. Baste occasionally with the cooking juices. Remove the salmon from the pan and hold in a warm over, covered with a piece of aluminum foil.

Reduce the liquid in the pan to a few tablespoons. Add the butter, stirring into the sauce. Taste and add a little more lemon juice if necessary. Spoon the sauce over the salmon and sprinkle with chives.
