Few sprigs of fresh herbs: parsley, thyme, basil, cilantro
2 small salmon fillets (3-4 ounces each)
Cooking Instructions
In a wide pan bring to a gentle boil in 1 inch of water. Add the lemon slices and the herb sprigs.
Place salmon, skin side down into the poaching liquid. It will begin to turn opaque in 3-4 minutes. Turn over and continue to cook until the flesh is evenly pink. Remove the skin and set the fillets on paper towels to dry.
Add salt, pepper, lemon juice, butter or olive oil if required.
