Ingredients

6 fresh strawberries, hulled
1/2 cup rice vinegar
3 tablespoons canola oil
1 tablespoon minced fresh cilantro
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/8 teaspoon cayenne pepper
1-1/2 teaspoons Dijon mustard, divided
4 salmon fillets (6 ounces each)
2 egg yolks
1/4 cup heavy whipping cream
1 tablespoon lemon juice
1/4 cup butter, melted
1-1/2 teaspoons minced fresh tarragon or 1/2 teaspoon dried tarragon
Optional garnishes: chopped green onions and additional fresh strawberries

Directions

1

Place strawberries in a food processor. Cover and process until pureed; set aside 2 tablespoons for sauce. Pour remaining puree into a large resealable plastic bag. Add the vinegar, oil, cilantro, salt, cayenne and 1 teaspoon mustard. Add the salmon; seal bag and turn to coat. Refrigerate for 30 minutes.
2

Drain and discard marinade. Moisten a paper towel with cooking oil; using long-handled tongs, lightly coat the grill rack. Place salmon skin side down on a grill rack. Grill salmon, covered, over medium heat or broil 4 in. from the heat for 12-14 minutes or until fish flakes easily with a fork. Keep warm.
3

In a double boiler or metal bowl over simmering water, constantly whisk the egg yolks, cream, lemon juice and remaining mustard until mixture reaches 160° or is thick enough to coat the back of a metal spoon. Reduce heat to low. Very slowly drizzle in warm melted butter, whisking constantly. Stir in tarragon and reserved strawberry puree.
4

Serve immediately with salmon. Garnish with green onions and additional strawberries if desired.
