Poached Salmon with Cucumber Sauce
- Preparation Time: 15 minutes
- Cook time: 10 minutes
- Yield: 4 servings
Ingredients:
- 1 lb Salmon Fillets
- 1 Cucumber
- 1/3 cup Light Sour Cream
- 1 Tbsp Low-fat Mayonnaise
- Salt, to taste
- 1/4 tsp Dill, dried
- 1 tsp fresh Lemon Juice
- 1 to 2 cups Water
- 1 to 2 cups Dry White Wine
Directions:
Cut cucumber in chunks and finely mince in a food processor. Add sour cream, mayonnaise, salt, dill and lemon juice; puree until smooth.
In a saucepan or skillet that can hold salmon in a single layer, place enough water and wine in equal amounts to cover fillets (or use all water). Bring to a boil. Add salmon, reduce heat and simmer 5 minutes for 1/2" thick fillets. Test a fillet to make sure salmon is cooked through. Remove salmon from liquid and drain briefly on paper towels. Place poached salmon on dinner plates and spoon a ribbon of cucumber sauce over the salmon.
