Step 1

Prepare the lemon: Zest, then juice one lemon. Slice the second lemon into wedges or rounds for garnish. Set aside.

Step 2

Prepare the poaching liquid: In a large saucepan with a lid, combine the wine, lemon juice, shallot, garlic, and 2 sprigs parsley, and 2 sprigs dill. Bring to a simmer over medium heat.

Step 3

Season the salmon: Pat the salmon dry and season with kosher salt on both sides.

Step 4

Poach the salmon: Nestle the salmon in the poaching liquid. Lower the heat to maintain a simmer and cover. Cook for 5 to 8 minutes, depending on the thickness of the fish and your desired doneness (I stop at 5 minutes). While the salmon poaches chop the remaining sprig of parsley and dill.

Step 5

Serve: Transfer the salmon to four serving plates and top with a bit of the poaching liquid. Sprinkle the salmon with lemon zest, chopped parsley, and dill. Add a drizzle of extra virgin olive oil if using. Serve immediately, with lemon wedges or slices on the side.
