How to Make Citrus Poached Salmon
- In a large pot, combine 2 cups chicken stock, 1 cup orange juice, 1/2 cup grapefruit juice, 1/2 cup dry white wine, 1 medium onion (chopped), 1 cup carrots (chopped), 4 kaffir lime leaves, 4 cloves garlic (minced), and 2 stalks lemongrass (bruised).
- Season generously with salt and freshly ground white pepper to taste.
- Bring the mixture to a boil over medium-high heat. Boil for 5-10 minutes, or until the liquid is slightly reduced and the vegetables have softened.
- Reduce heat to a very low simmer.
- Gently place salmon fillets (about 1 pound total) into the poaching liquid. Poach for 5-10 minutes, or until the salmon is cooked through and flakes easily with a fork.
- Remove the salmon from the poaching liquid and let it rest for a few minutes.
- Serve the salmon warm over a bed of cooked white jasmine rice, garnished with fresh orange and grapefruit slices.
- Alternatively, chill the salmon completely and serve it over a bed of mixed greens with a vibrant citrus fruit salad.
