Poached Fish Recipe - Cooking Index
Because poached fish has even less fat than allowed in the lean meat exchanges, feel free to use 1 teaspoon of a sauce or lemon butter over each serving without counting the fat exchange for the butter.

Cut fish into six serving portions and place them in a large frying pan. Combine all other ingredients and add to pan. Bring to a boil; cover pan and reduce heat to low. Simmer 6 to 8 minutes or until fish flakes easily with a fork.
Lift fish out of liquid carefully with a pancake turner. Serve with lemon wedges or with "Sunshine Sauce," "Cucumber Sauce," or "Dill Sauce" (see recipes).
