Stir in light cream. Micro-cook, uncovered, on 100% power for 2 to 3 minutes or until mixture is thickened and bubbly, stirring every minute. Stir HALF the hot cream mixture into the beaten egg yolk. Return all to the 4-cup measure.

Micro-cook, uncovered, on 50% of power for 1 minute, stirring every 15 seconds. Stir until mixture is smooth. Stir in dry white wine.

Transfer the salmon steaks to a serving platter. Spoon the wine sauce atop.
