Health and fertility benefits of Poached Salmon Fillets Recipe | MyRecipes

Salmon is rich in omega-3 fatty acids and also one of the best sources of vitamin D. Keeping vitamin D levels up is important to women with PCOS.

Ingredients

2 1/2 cups water
3/4 cup dry white wine
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 julienne-cut carrot
1 julienne-cut leek
1 bay leaf, torn
2 thyme sprigs
4 (6-ounce) salmon fillets

Instructions

Simmer first 7 ingredients in a large skillet over medium-low heat. Why? Water, fish stock, milk, beer, and even oil all work for poaching. The herbs and spices, aromatic vegetables, and acidity of wine or lemon add incredible flavor.
Place salmon, either skin side up or skin side down, in pan. How? Choose similar-sized fillets and avoid crowding the pan so that liquid surrounds each piece of fish for even cooking.
Poach 3 minutes on each side or until desired degree of doneness. Remove fillets immediately. Is it done? Fish is ready when opaque throughout (a sharp knife will slide through easily).
