This is a delicious and fail safe salmon recipe is a spin on steak on poivre. It is sophisticated enough for a dinner party, but is easy enough just to do for a mid week dinner.

I cant remember where i got the recipe for this as it has become a scruffy little piece of paper that i wrote the ingredients on.
