Ingredients

Directions

  1. To make the sauce: In a nonstick skillet, heat 1 teaspoon oil over low heat. Add onion and carrot; cook, stirring, until onion is translucent, about 1 minute.
  2. Add ginger, lemongrass, and curry powder; cook, stirring, until fragrant, about 2 minutes more.
  3. Add wine, increase heat to medium-high, and cook until wine evaporates, 3 to 5 minutes.
  4. Add broth, reduce heat to low, and simmer, uncovered, for 20 minutes.
  5. Press through a fine sieve into a small saucepan. Whisk in remaining 1 teaspoon oil, and season with salt and pepper. (Sauce will be very thin.) Set aside.
  6. To cook chard and salmon: In a large pot of boiling salted water, cook chard until tender, about 5 minutes. Drain and refresh under cold water. Gently squeeze dry.
  7. In a large nonstick skillet, heat 1 1/2 teaspoons oil over medium-high heat. Add chard and sauté until heated through, about 3 minutes. Season with salt and pepper. Keep warm.
  8. Season salmon with salt and pepper. In the bottom of a steamer or large pot, bring 3 inches of water to a boil. Lightly oil a steamer basket, add salmon, place over water, cover, and steam until firm and opaque in the center, about 8 minutes.
  9. Meanwhile, reheat sauce.
  10. To serve, divide chard among 4 warmed plates and top with salmon. Garnish salmon with chutney and spoon sauce around it. Serve immediately.
