Using the poaching method for cooking fish keeps it ultra moist, and is a very quick and easy way to prepare salmon! Pictured here are two pounds of wild Coho fillets. Sockeye salmon will cook much quicker, and King fillets will take a little longer. You can test for doneness by using a fork to pull away some of the flesh in the thickest fillet; if it's opaque then it's done. Serve curried salmon with rice for a quick weeknight meal. If you are on a low-carb, keto, or grain-free diet, serve with roasted cauliflower!

Delicious! Some of my kids hate tomatoes so I swapped out for red peppers.
