BIG CITY SALMON WITH MARTINI SAUCE

Steps:

• Season each piece of salmon with salt and pepper and sprinkle with a little chopped parsley. If sautéing, heat the olive oil in a wide skillet and cook the fish, about 3 minutes on the first side, then about 2 minutes on the second side to achieve a medium-rare temperature. (Increase the cooking time by about 90 seconds on each side if you want the salmon to be cooked through.) You may also grill or broil the salmon, as desired.
• Spoon the Martini Sauce over (or alongside) the cooked salmon and serve immediately. This salmon is delicious with boiled new potatoes or rice.

WHISKEY CREAM SAUCE

Steps:

• Cook the onions in the 3 tablespoons butter in a skillet over medium heat for a few minutes. When the onions are brown, turn off the burner temporarily so you won't ignite your kitchen. Or yourself.
• Pour in the whiskey. As soon as it evaporates, turn the burner on medium-high heat and pour in the beef stock. Add salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste, then allow the mixture to bubble up and reduce by half.
• Whisk in the remaining tablespoon of butter, then reduce the heat to low. Whisk in 1/4 cup to 1/2 cup cream, according to your taste. Allow the sauce to simmer and thicken for a few minutes.
• Serve with beef, baby!

POACHED SALMON WITH IRISH BUTTER SAUCE

Steps:

• Half fill the pan with measured salted water and bring to the boil. Put in the piece of fish, just covering with water, and bring back to the boil. Simmer gently for 20 minutes. Turn off the heat, allow the fish to sit in the water. Serve within 15 to 20 minutes.
• Meanwhile make the Irish Butter Sauce. Put the egg yolks into a heavy bottomed stainless steel saucepan on a very low heat. Add the cold water and whisk thoroughly. Add the butter bit by bit, whisking all the time. As soon as one piece melts, add the next. The mixture will gradually thicken, but if it shows signs of becoming too thick or 'scrambling' slightly, remove from the heat immediately and add a little cold water if necessary. Do not leave the pan or stop whisking until the sauce is made. Finally add the lemon juice to taste. Pour into a bowl and keep warm over hot, but not boiling, water.
• To serve, lift the cooked salmon carefully from the poaching liquid. Peel off the skin gently. Garnish with sprigs of parsley or watercress. Serve with Irish Butter Sauce.

IRISH ROASTED SALMON

• Mix together honey, vinegar, whiskey, thyme, lemon zest, oil, salt and pepper. Pour over salmon and marinate 1 hour on the counter, or 4 hours refrigerated.
• Preheat oven to 450°F.
• Remove salmon from marinade and place on a rack over a roasting pan.
• Grill or Bake for 10 to 12 minutes, basting once with the marinade or until golden and white juices are just beginning to appear.

BEEF FILLET WITH IRISH WHISKEY AND CREAM PAN SAUCE

Steps:

• Season each steak generously with salt and pepper. Heat a heavy-based (preferably cast iron) skillet that's large enough to hold the steaks over high heat until quite hot. Add the vegetable oil if not using cast iron. Test pan by touching the edge of one steak to the pan surface; it will sizzle briskly when ready.
• Immediately drop in the steaks and sear one side for 2 minutes. SNeak a peak to see if the first side is nicely browned. Flip the steaks and sear the other side for 2-3 minutes.
• Reduce heat to medium high, cook for another 2 minutes, flip, and cook until a digital thermometer reads 120 degrees for rare, or 125 degrees for medium rare, another 1-2 minutes. Transfer steaks to a warm platter and let them rest, covered loosely with foil, while you make the sauce.
• Return unwashed pan to medium heat. Add butter and let it melt. Add shallots and cook, stirring, until fragrant and just tender, 1-2 minutes. Add whiskey and stir with wooden spoon, scraping up any browned bits stuck to the pan. Add broth and Worcestershire sauce, raise the heat to medium high, and bring to a boil. WHisk in the mustard and then the cream. COntinue to cook at a boil, stirring, until reduced to a saucy consistency, 3-5 minutes. Taste the sauce and season with salt and pepper, and lemon juice. Serve steak with the sauce.
