Easy Citrus Poached Salmon Recipe

Step 1

Combine the broth, orange juice, lemon juice, dill, salt, peppercorns and bay leaf in a skillet or pan with tall sides. Bring to a boil. Boil for 2-3 minutes, then reduce to a simmer. Simmer for about 15 minutes, stirring occasionally to allow all of the flavors to come together.

Step 2

While the broth is coming together, remove the skin for the fish or better yet, have your fish monger remove it for you when it's purchased.

Step 3

Slide the salmon into the simmering broth. The broth should come halfway up the sides of the fish. Spoon the sauce over the fish, cover and cook for 5 minutes, baste again and cook for an additional 5 minutes or until the flesh is firm.

Step 4

Serve warm or chilled, garnish with chopped dill & chives.
