Recipe - Salmon Scampi With Wine

1 One half pound Salmon fillets
2 tablespoon Bacon drippings
6 tablespoon Butter or margarine
1 Garlic clove
crushed and minced
One half teaspoon Oregano leaves
One half teaspoon Thyme leaves
1 teaspoon Whole tarragon
2 tablespoon Lemon juice
One half cup Dry Marsala wine

Trim fillets to 11/2" piecesuniform thickness. In frying pan, slowly cook
12 strips of bacon, or enough to yield 2 tablespoons drippings. Remove
bacon and use for another dish. Saute the salmon in the bacon drippings
over medium heat, turning gently. Remove to a baking dish and keep warm.
Deglaze pan with a little of the wine and scrape the residue from the pan
over the fish. Meanwhile, in a small saucepan, melt the butter and add the
garlic and spices. Cook, stirring over medium low heat, for 23 minutes to
extract the flavors. Remove from heat and add the wine and lemon juice.
Pour this sauce over the fish. Bake at 400 degrees F. for 10 minutes. Serve
over rice, spooning pan juices over all. Garnish with lemon wedges and
finely chopped parsley.

Variation: Substitute dry white wine for the Marsala for a lighter, less
rich dish.
