Poached salmon in lemon grass and lemon and orange juice

Here is a really quick but oh-so-magnifique dinner that takes no time at all. It’s basically poaching the salmon in some lemon juice, orange juice, lemon grass and wine by throwing it in the oven untill you watch the end of Queer Eye. In fact it’s so easy you can make this while watching TV AND reading the Vanity Fair…

You need for 4
4 Salmon fillets
2 cup or so of orange juice (yes. Don’t be scared. It adds a bit of zing)
2 cup of Lemon juice (or Lime juice)
2 cups of white wine
2 cups of chicken stock
I white onion
3 garlics chopped finely
2 to 3 lemon grass stalks chopped finely
sel et poivre
Add some lime leaves if you so desire

·Mix all the ingredients (except the salmon). Being careful that when you pour 2 cups of white wine you pour yourself a big fat glass of wine too.
·Pop in a baking dish and heat up and cook for about 5 mins till it’s nearly boiling.
·Are you ready to eat? Because you will be in 5 more minutes so hop to it and set the table.
·Throw the salmon in the poaching conglomeration making sure the salmon is all covered. Add more lemon juice or wine if you need to (and your own glass too). Cook it till it’s flaky and tender. Or to your liking. Which is always handy because you’re eating it.
·Voila!
·You might serve this with asparagus, some rice or little boiled potatoes.
·Ain’t it easy? Took longer to write it than cook it and even less calories to eat it. Yum.
