1 teaspoon olive or vegetable oil
2 Tablespoons fi nely chopped shallots
1½ cups Longmont Dairy low fat milk
½ teaspoon salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste
1¼ lbs. salmon fi llet, 1 inch thick, skin on, cut into 4 pieces
1 Tablespoon fresh lemon juice
1½ teaspoons cornstarch
2 Tablespoons chopped fresh dill
¼ cup reduced-fat sour cream
2 teaspoons Dijon mustard
Lemon wedges and fresh dill sprigs for garnish
In a 10-inch skillet or sauté pan, heat oil over
medium heat. Add shallots and sauté until softened,
30 to 60 seconds. Add milk, salt and pepper; bring
to simmer, stirring. Reduce heat to low. Slip in
salmon pieces, skin-side up; immediately turn over.
Cover and poach gently, spooning cooking liquid
over top of salmon occasionally, just until interior
is opaque, 10 to 12 minutes. With a slotted spoon,
carefully transfer salmon to a warm platter. Cover
and keep warm. In a small bowl, mix lemon juice
and cornstarch; add to poaching liquid and cook,
stirring constantly until slightly thickened, about
1 minute. Stir in sour cream, chopped dill, and
mustard. Garnish salmon with lemon wedges
and dill sprigs. Serve with the mustard-dill sauce.
