Broiled Salmon with Apple-Date Chutney image

Steamed green beans and a rice or pasta salad from the deli go nicely with this entrée inspired by the Pacific Northwest. End with a simple but sophisticated dessert of coffee ice cream drizzled with brandy and sprinkled with toasted hazelnuts. Can be prepared in 45 minutes or less.

Yield Makes 2 servings

Number Of Ingredients 8

2 1-inch-thick salmon steaks (each about 6 ounces)
6 teaspoons olive oil
1 1/2 teaspoons curry powder
2/3 cup chopped red onion
3/4 cup chopped peeled tart green apple
1/4 cup chopped pitted dates
2 tablespoons apple juice
1 tablespoon white wine vinegar

Steps:

  • Preheat broiler. Brush each salmon steak with 1 teaspoon oil. Sprinkle each with 1/4 teaspoon curry powder, salt and pepper. Broil salmon until just opaque in center, about 5 minutes per side.
  • Meanwhile, heat remaining 4 teaspoons oil in heavy medium skillet over medium-low heat. Add onion and sauté until onion begins to soften, about 3 minutes. Mix in apple, dates, apple juice and remaining 1 teaspoon curry powder. Cook 2 minutes longer. Mix in vinegar; simmer 1 minute. Season chutney to taste with salt and pepper.
  • Transfer salmon to plates. Spoon chutney alongside and serve.
