Lychees
are a delicious fruit that tastes similar to a grape with more
texture. It pairs well with the flavors of mango and
passionfruit. In this recipe it is used in a rich orange glaze.
This recipe is for one serving but you can increase the
ingredients for two or more. If you start cooking the salmon
right before you mix the chutney glaze ingredients together this
dish will be one that is quick to prepare.
1 Salmon filet
2 teaspoons
butter
2 teaspoons
chopped shallots
Chutney
Glaze
1

small
bowl.
3. When the salmon is fully cooked remove it from the pan and
set the
filet
on a serving plate.
4. Add the shallots to the frying pan and cook just until
translucent and
slightly
browned.
