Preparation

Step 1

Place sauerkraut in a colander; rinse under cold water. Drain well, pressing sauerkraut with the back of a spoon to remove as much water as possible.

Cook bacon in a large Dutch oven over medium-high heat for 3 minutes. Add onion; sauté 5 minutes. Stir in sauerkraut, juniper berries, and next 4 ingredients (juniper berries through clam juice). Bring to a boil, reduce heat, and simmer 45 minutes or until liquid evaporates and mixture is tender.

Place salmon steaks on broiler pan coated with cooking spray, and broil 3 minutes on each side or until fish flakes easily when tested with a fork. Serve with sauerkraut mixture.

Serving Size: 1 salmon steak and 1 cup sauerkraut mixture
