Wild Salmon in Puff Pastry with Olives and Goat Cheese

This dish was created after discovering how delicious pomegranate molasses tasted with our fresh wild salmon. I was out visiting my brother on the West Coast and he had just returned from a day of fishing and offered me some fresh caught salmon. I wanted to have a recipe that I could bake in the oven and so I began with an olive and pomegranate molasses glaze and the recipe just grew from there. This recipe is best served with steamed green beans with lemon, garlic and roasted almonds.

One of the pleasures of the cooking traditions of the British Isles is seafood pie, with its bounty of northern seafood in a creamy sauce topped with flaky pastry. You can make the pie a day ahead and refrigerate it or freeze it. If you prefer, use pie pastry (one double-crust recipe) instead of puff pastry.
