Chenin Blanc Poached Salmon with Citrus Herb Sause
– Elevate your dinner party and indulge in the harmonious flavors of wine and cuisine.
Ingredients:
4 salmon fillets
1 bottle of Ayana Chenin Blanc
1 lemon, thinly sliced
1 orange, thinly sliced
4-5 sprigs of fresh thyme
Salt and pepper, to taste
For the Citrus Herb Sause:
1/2 cup Greek yogurt
Zest and juice of 1 lemon
Zest and juice of 1 orange
2 tablespoons fresh chopped dill
Salt and pepper, to taste
Directions:
In a large skillet or pan, pour Ayana Chenin Blanc and add lemon slices, orange slices, and fresh thyme. Bring the wine to a gentle simmer over medium heat.
Season the salmon fillets with salt and pepper. Carefully place the salmon fillets into the simmering wine mixture, ensuring they are fully submerged.
Poach the salmon for about 10-15 minutes, depending on the thickness of the fillets. The salmon should be opaque and easily flake with a fork.
While the salmon is poaching, prepare the Citrus Herb Sauce. In a bowl, combine Greek yogurt, lemon zest, lemon juice, orange zest, orange juice, and chopped dill. Season with salt and pepper. Mix well until the sauce is creamy and well combined.
Once the salmon is poached, gently remove them from the wine mixture and place them on serving plates.
Drizzle the Citrus Herb Sauce over the poached salmon fillets.
Serve the Chenin Blanc Poached Salmon with Citrus Herb Sauce alongside your choice of side dishes, such as roasted vegetables or a light salad.
To enhance the dining experience, pour chilled Ayana Chenin Blanc to accompany the dish. The wine’s crisp acidity and fruity notes will beautifully complement the citrus flavors of the dish.
Enjoy this elegant and flavorful dish with your guests, savoring the harmonious pairing of Ayana Chenin Blanc and the delicate poached salmon.
