Salmon with Rhubarb Ginger Chutney - westcoastcooking.com

(Serves 4)

For the Rhubarb and Ginger Chutney:
2 stalks rhubarb, chopped, (about 2 cups)
1/2 cup crystallized ginger, chopped
1/4 cup sugar
1/4 cup raspberry vinegar
1 teaspoon salt
For the Salmon:
4 filets of Copper River Salmon, or other king salmon, skin removed
2 teaspoons kosher salt
1 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
2 tablespoons light olive oil or corn oil

1.) To make the chutney, stir the rhubarb, crystallized ginger, raspberry vinegar and salt in a non-reactive (stainless steel or enameled) saucepan over medium-high heat. Cook, stirring until sugar is dissolved and mixture is beginning to boil. Cover, reduce heat to low, and cook 6 to 8 minutes, or until rhubarb is very tender and beginning to disintegrate. Chutney may be served at once or kept, covered and refrigerated, for several days.
2.) To grill the salmon, wipe the grill with a cloth dipped in olive oil, or spray it with an oil mister. Position the grill 4 inches above a bed of the glowing coals and wipe it with an oily cloth. Sprinkle the filets with salt and pepper and rub with oil.
3.) Place the filets, skinned-side up onto the rack and allow them to broil for 5 minutes. If the oil ignites, cool the flames with a little water splashed from a cup or streamed from a squirt gun. With a long spatula, turn the filets once and allow them to broil for 5 minutes more. Transfer to a warm platter or serving plates.
