Time 20m

Yield 2

Number Of Ingredients 6

2 (6 ounce) salmon steaks
salt and ground black pepper to taste
2 teaspoons fennel seeds
1 medium lemon
3 ½ tablespoons butter
fresh fennel fronds to taste

Steps:

  • Season salmon steaks with salt and pepper, then sprinkle with fennel seeds. Slice 1/2 of the lemon and juice the remaining half; set both aside.
  • Place a steamer insert into a saucepan and fill with water to just below the bottom of the steamer. Bring water to a boil. Add salmon steaks, cover, and steam until fish flakes easily with a fork, about 8 minutes.
  • While the salmon is cooking, melt butter in a saucepan over medium-low heat. Remove from the heat and stir in lemon juice.
  • Remove salmon from the steamer. Remove and discard skins, and arrange salmon on a plate. Pour lemon butter over top and decorate with fennel fronds and lemon slices.
