Perfect Poached Fish

Ingredients

  • 1/2 cup dry white wine
  • 1/2 medium onion sliced
  • 2 cloves garlic crushed
  • 1/2 lemon sliced
  • 1/2 teaspoon sea salt
  • 4 fillets of your preferred fish

Instructions

  • Combine white wine, onion slices, crushed garlic, lemon slices, and sea salt in a large skillet with high sides. Add enough water to rise 2 inches above the bottom of the pot. Heat on medium until the water reaches 140 degrees Fahrenheit (it should be steaming with a slight movement). Reduce heat to maintain temperature.
    Perfect Poached Fish
  • Place the fish fillets in the skillet, ensuring the water temperature remains steady at 140 degrees Fahrenheit (otherwise you risk overcooking the fish).
    Perfect Poached Fish
  • Poach the fish until it reaches an internal temperature of 145 degrees Fahrenheit. It typically takes about 10 minutes, depending on thickness. It is ready when the fish flakes with a fork.
    Perfect Poached Fish
  • Using a slotted spatula, carefully lift the fish from the poaching liquid and serve immediately.
