Poached Fish

8 Servings


2 pounds fish fillets, skinned
1 onion, chopped
1/4 cup chopped celery
2 tablespoons vegetable oil
1 cup hot water
2 tablespoons lemon juice
Freshly ground black pepper, (optional)
1 bay leaf
2 sprigs parsley

In a large shallow pan, sauté the onion and celery in oil until tender. Place fillets on top of vegetables, or roll each fillet, securing it with a toothpick, and place on vegetables. Add water or wine and seasoning. Cover and simmer about 8 minutes, or until fish flakes when tested with a fork. Carefully transfer fillets to a heated platter. Serve with Lemon Parsley Sauce or Horseradish Sauce.
