Easy Poached Salmon

10 ingredients
3 steps

Ingredients

  • 6 cups water
  • 1 medium onion, chopped
  • 2 celery ribs, chopped
  • 4 sprigs fresh parsley
  • 1/2 cup dry white wine
  • 1 tablespoon soy sauce
  • 8 whole peppercorns
  • 1 bay leaf
  • 1 salmon fillet (3 pounds)
  • Lemon slices and fresh dill

Directions

  1. 1
    In a large saucepan, combine the first 8 ingredients. Bring to a boil; reduce heat. Simmer, covered, 30 minutes. Strain; discarding vegetables and spices.
  2. 2
    Cut three 20x3-in. strips of heavy-duty foil; crisscross so they resemble spokes of a wheel. Place strips on bottom and up sides of a 7-qt. oval slow cooker. Pour poaching liquid into slow cooker. Carefully add salmon.
  3. 3
    Cook, covered, on high 60-70 minutes or just until fish flakes easily with a fork (a thermometer inserted in fish should read at least 145°). Using foil strips as handles, remove salmon from cooking liquid. Serve warm or cold with lemon and dill.
