Instructions
Heat the chicken stock in a medium saucepan.
Add the chanterelle trimmings, cover and simmer over low heat for 10 minutes. Strain the broth and discard the trimmings.
In a large skillet, heat the extra-virgin olive oil until shimmering.
Add the chanterelles, season lightly with salt and pepper and cook over moderately high heat, stirring, until dry and golden brown, about 8 minutes.
Add the garlic and cook, stirring frequently, until fragrant, about 3 minutes.
Transfer the chanterelles to a plate.
Add the mushroom broth to the skillet and boil until reduced to 1 cup, about 10 minutes. Return the chanterelles to the skillet.
In a large saucepan of boiling salted water, cook the asparagus until almost tender, about 2 minutes.
Remove from the heat and cover.
Season the salmon with salt and pepper. In a large, deep skillet, heat the pure olive oil until shimmering.
Add the salmon and cook over moderate heat for 3 minutes. Using a spatula, carefully turn the fillets and simmer until just cooked through, about 3 minutes longer.
Bring the chanterelles to a boil and remove from the heat.
Add the thyme and whisk inthe butter, 1 tablespoon at a time. Season with salt and pepper. Spoon the sauce into warmed shallow bowls. Set a salmon fillet in each bowl, spoon the Three Onion Risotto beside it and garnish with the asparagus.
Recommended wine: Chardonnay, Pinot Noir, Sauvignon Blanc
Chardonnay, Pinot Noir, and Sauvignon Blanc are my top picks for Salmon. To decide on white or red, you should consider your seasoning and sauces. Chardonnay is a great friend to buttery, creamy dishes, while sauvignon blanc can complement herb or citrus-centric dishes. A light-bodied, low-tannin red such as the pinot noir goes great with broiled or grilled salmon. You could try Tenuta di Nozzole Le Bruniche Chardonnay. Reviewers quite like it with a 4.2 out of 5 star rating and a price of about 12 dollars per bottle.

Tenuta di Nozzole Le Bruniche Chardonnay
Nozzole Le Bruniche is an elegant and distinctive expression of the Chardonnay variety, with a clean, fragrant bouquet of white and tropical fruits offset by slight nuances of toast. On the palate, it shows a superb balance of fruit ripeness underscored by a fresh acidity and structure of medium body, with an overall impression of delicate complexity. These are repeated in the clean, persistent finish, which ends on a subtle toasty note.
