Method

For the Salmon

  1. 1

    Prep the Salmon

    Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C). Wrap each salmon fillet with two slices of bacon and secure with toothpicks if necessary.

  2. 2

    Prepare the Sauce

    In a skillet over medium heat, add olive oil, walnuts, sun-dried tomatoes, salt, and pepper. Sauté for about 3 minutes. Pour in the Amaretto and simmer until the sauce thickens slightly.

  3. 3

    Bake the Salmon

    Place the bacon-wrapped salmon on a baking sheet. Bake in the oven for 20-25 minutes or until the salmon is cooked through and the bacon is crispy.

For the Risotto

  1. 4

    Cook the Onions and Garlic

    In a large saucepan, melt butter over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and garlic, cooking until the onion is translucent.

  2. 5

    Toast the Rice

    Add the arborio rice to the saucepan and toast for about 2 minutes, stirring frequently.

  3. 6

    Add Liquid Gradually

    Pour in the white wine and cook until absorbed. Then, gradually add the chicken broth, one ladle at a time, stirring continuously until each addition is absorbed before adding the next.

  4. 7

    Finish the Risotto

    Once the rice is creamy and cooked al dente, stir in the parmesan cheese, salt, and pepper to taste.
