Champagne Poached Alaskan Salmon Recipe

Serves/Makes: 4

Ingredients:

• 4 Alaskan salmon fillets, 6 to 8 ounces each, skin and bones removed
• 2 cups champagne
• 1/4 cup fresh lime juice
• 4 slices red onion
• 1 tablespoon capers, optional
• 4 sprigs fresh tarragon
• 1/2 cup Honey-Dijon mustard
• 1 1/2 teaspoons fresh tarragon, chopped
• Salt and pepper, to taste

How to cook Champagne Poached Alaskan Salmon:

• Mix together mustard and chopped tarragon, set aside.
• Season salmon fillets lightly with salt and pepper. Place in a pan just large enough to hold the salmon in 1 layer. Add the champagne, lime juice and just enough water to cover the fish.
• Remove the fish and bring the liquid to a boil. Return the salmon to the pan. Top each with a onion slice, capers and tarragon sprig. Reduce heat to a simmer, cover pan with foil and poach at no more than a simmer for 6 to 10 minutes, depending on the thickness of the salmon.
• Remove salmon from the liquid and place on 4 warm serving plates. Top each piece of salmon with 1-ounce of the mustard mixture and serve.
