Poached Salmon Fillets
Ingredients
Instructions
- Simmer first 7 ingredients in a large skillet over medium-low heat. Why? Water, fish stock, milk, beer, and even oil all work for poaching. The herbs and spices, aromatic vegetables, and acidity of wine or lemon add incredible flavor.
- Place salmon, either skin side up or skin side down, in pan. How? Choose similar-sized fillets and avoid crowding the pan so that liquid surrounds each piece of fish for even cooking.
- Poach 3 minutes on each side or until desired degree of doneness. Remove fillets immediately. Is it done? Fish is ready when opaque throughout (a sharp knife will slide through easily).
