Poached Salmon is one of my favorite fish dish and it goes really well with rice or baked potatoes.
Ingredients
* 1/2 cup water
* 2 tablespoons lemon juice
* 1/8 teaspoon chicken bouillon granules
* 2 (4 ounce) fillets salmon
* 1 tablespoon butter
* 2 tablespoons capers
* ground black pepper to taste
* 1 tablespoon chopped fresh parsley
Directions
1. Bring water and lemon juice to a boil in medium-sized skillet. Stir in chicken bouillon granules. Reduce heat to a simmer and place salmon fillets in pan. Cover and simmer over low heat, 10 minutes per inch of thickness, measured at thickest part; or until fish flakes when tested with a fork. Remove salmon from pan; keep salmon warm.
2. Boil remaining liquid in the skillet until it is reduced to approximately 1/4 cup. Whisk in butter and stir in capers. Spoon sauce over fish. Season with pepper and sprinkle with parsley.
This recipe serves two.
If you are bringing rice, or potatoes for the main bowl, you can keep the salmon in the soup bowl to keep it as warm as possible.
