Salmon with Vegetables in White Wine Sauce

Daníel Jón Ómarsson, head chef at Hotel Rangá, a luxury countryside resort in Southern Iceland, is sharing one of his favorite date night salmon recipes.

“We developed this dish after experimenting with completely different flavors and discovering how well they worked together,” he explains. “The winning combination of salmon, broccoli, homemade granola, and white wine sauce is guaranteed to impress.”

“The savory granola really makes the dish complete,” he adds. “We wanted to add some crunch to give the plate a variety of different textures.”

Though the recipe is lengthy, Ómarsson suggests making the individual components ahead of time, including the granola and sauce. Once prepared, plate the dish by layering the salmon atop the broccoli, followed by garnishing the fillet with white wine sauce and crunchy granola.
