Poached Salmon

I made this for my husband who needs purée food. It was excellent!!! He enjoyed the fish.

Easy recipe used dill instead of parsley and will add lemon juice next time give a little zing to the salmon.

Didn’t have white wine, I put vinegar instead! Kids say its delicious.

The liquid never covered the fish, then it all boiled off before the fish finished cooking, leaving a bunch of burnt garlic in the bottom of the pan.

Great start for poached salmon. After reading other comments I added 1/4 cup lemon juice to the poaching liquid. Covering the pan during poaching gave a more even cooking of the salmon and melted the butter and garlic together. Its a waste to just throw out the poaching liquid, so I reduced it about 1/2 and then added a very light roux of butter and flour to thicken it. A large “glop” of sour cream and some milk to make a somewhat creamy sauce to serve over the salmon and on the mashed potatoes. Very good result. Will do again.

I used chopped fresh dill instead of parsley. Nice light flavour with the salmon

Quick & simple to prepare and light tasting. I would say it was steamed, not poached since there is not enough liquid to call it poached. That didn’t keep it from getting my 5-star rating. I’ll be making this again and again.

I have to give it a 5 because it’s a god simple recipe. I didn’t have Parsley and substituted with Oregano. Also on the wine I used a Pinot Grigio. The Salmon was delicious

I didn’t have wine in the house so I substituted lemon juice. Still delicious!

Any white wine is delicious as a poaching base. No parsley so I used dill along with a liberal amount of garlic. Two large pats of butter and covered while it simmered on low. Poached for 12 minutes and let it sit for 2 minutes after plating. It was perfect!

I made it but had no dry parsley so I used Italian seasoning instead and it turned out delicious!

Easy to make. I did pre season the salmon with garlic salt and pepper. Served on bed of arugula and baby spinach with truffle potato smear. Made the mustard honey dill sauce as well.

To make it moister, I used 1 cup white wine, 1 cup chicken broth + juice of 1/2 lemon. I used fresh parsley, chopped garlic, and Himalayan salt. When done, thickened the remaining sauce with a little bit of cornstarch. Drizzle the sauce over the fish. Delicious! No pepper for me, I am allergic. 🙁 Thank you for this recipe and I am sure I will be making this again in the near future. I am also positive that my children will love this recipe.

Recipe was quick and easy. One of the best poaching liquid I’ve ever found.

Best Poached Salmon recipe I have tried so far. Tender, flavorful and down right delicious. I chilled some for a poached salmon salad next day & it was just as good. I did have to add more water to get better coverage because it stated a large skillet but with so little liquid it could not properly “poach”. I liked it so much I will be making it again in the next few days & also for a ladies luncheon where I will pickle onions & red bell peppers to top the chilled poached Salmon with a side of a sliced hard boiled egg & cucumber salad and large dollop of dill/sour cream/garlic dip YUMMY!!!!

I made one portion but used 3 tablespoons of the wine and water. I’ll make this one again. Thanks for sharing.

This was excellent and surpassed my expectations. I only added Old Bay seasoning to the recipe.

This is amazing! I can’t believe I’ve never poached salmon before, but I will always do it this way from now on. I used olive oil instead of butter and added some lemon pepper. Easy, fast, and quick cleanup!

Turned out well. Family liked it and it was easy! I feel it needed more seasoning, though. I

Delicious and easy to make! It was a big hit with a champagne lunch!

Quick and easy recipe. Perfect for a novice cook. The result is a very moist and tasty treat.
