Poached Salmon

Here in the Pacific Northwest it’s salmon season! Yippee, hubby is out on the river having a great time with his friends and the kids and we get fresh fish any time he catches them. lol

I’m always looking for new ways to prepare it. Sometimes we just don’t want to grill again. So here is a slightly different way to prepare your salmon and get some veggies in the mix. One stop cooking is always appreciated.

Ingredients:
Salmon filets (allow 6 ounces per person)
1 carrot, sliced
1 small onion, sliced
1 stalk celery, sliced
2 slices lemon
Several sprigs of fresh parsley
1/2 bay leaf
Salt to taste
1 cup dry white wine
Juice of half a lemon

Instructions:
1. Cut salmon into personal sized portions.

2. Place all ingredients in a large pan. Placing salmon on top of all the veggies.

3. Keep uncovered and bring to a rolling boil.

4. Turn stove down to simmer and let fish cook for 5 minutes.

5. Turn off the stove and allow fish to sit for 10 minutes.

6. Carefully place salmon on platter or plates and spoon out vegetables. Serve immediately.
