Cranapple Fillets

Categories: Seafood

Serves: 6 Servings

Ingredients:

6 Salmon fillets; or trout
-----apple bouillon-----
4 c Apple juice
1/2 c Onions; sliced
1 Celery; cut to 1" lengths
1 Bay leaf
4 Peppercorns
1 ts Salt
-----cranberry sauce-----
1 c Apple juice
1/4 c Lemon juice
2 c Fresh cranberries
3/4 ts Cinnamon
1/2 c Sugar

Instructions:
In a large pan combine 4 cups apple juice, onion celery, bay leaf,
peppercorn and salt. Mix well and heat to boiling. Simmer for 10 minutes
to blend flavors.

Place the fillets on a rack over the mixture and steam for 9-10 minutes or
until fish flakes easily when tested with a fork. Carefully remove fish to
a hot platter. Discard the mixture.

To prepare the cranberry sauce add 1 cup apple juice to small pan. Stir in
lemon juice, cinnamon, sugar and bring to a boil. Reduce to a medium heat
and add the cranberries. Cook until cranberry skins pop, about 5 minutes.
Partially mash the berries and stir for another 2-3 minutes.

Place fillets on a bed of romaine lettuce and cover with the cranberry
sauce. (The sauce can also be made ahead of time and refrigerated,
providing a tasty combination of warm fish and cool sauce.)

Serves 6.
