- 1/2 small Onion
- 3 tbsp Lemon Juice
- 1 Lemon Zest
- 1 1/2 cup Chicken Broth
Pea Puree
- 1 cup Thawed Peas

- 2 Garlic Cloves
- 1/2 tsp Sea Salt
- 1/2 tsp Peppers
- 1/4 cup Olive oil

Instructions
- To make the Brodetto, in a medium saucepan warm up oil over medium heat. Add diced onions and saute until they are softened.
- Add the lemon juice, zest, and broth. Bring to simmer over low heat.
- To make the Pea Puree, combine the peas, mint, garlic, salt, and pepper in a blender or a food processor; puree the ingredients. With the machine running, add the olive oil to the peas. Transfer the pea puree to a small bowl and set aside.
- To make the salmon, warm the olive oil in a large skillet over high heat. Season the salmon pieces with salt and pepper. Sear the salmon until a golden crust forms, about 4 to 5 minutes on the first side. Flip the fish and continue cooking for about 2 minutes or more, depending on the thickness of the fish. You would be able to see on the sides of the salmon when it starts cooking through.
- To put the dish together, add 1/3 of a cup of Brodetto. Place a large spoonful of puree into the center of each plate. Place the salmon piece on top of the sauce; repeat for every plate.
