Salmon?

The fastest and easiest I like to make (in summer we sometimes grill it)... is poach/steam mix.

Hubby has a fish hatred... so I have to get it as unfishy as possible.

I sautee some sweet onions and Crimini mushrooms (not too many) and remove them from the pan (I garnish with these). I cut thin slivers of fresh lemon and put them in the pan with a tiny bit of water--2 or 3 tablespoons, put the salmon on top and sprinkle with MrsDash lemon pepper...cover for about 4 minutes on med high. A very fast easy one pan thing. The water never touches the fish as it is sitting on the lemons.
We try to have fresh veggies with this, so it is either French green beans, or the squash, or whatever is available. I'll do frozen if I have to. I cooked our Whitefish this way all summer and it was faster and better tasting than grilled I think. If I bake the fish instead of poach, I use blood oranges or regular instead of lemon. (I saw Martha do that once-- and they come out nice too.) When I use the citrus...the fishy quality is reduced and hubby will eat it. That is my main goal. He is fussy.
It is a quick easy meal. I try to keep a couple of frozen salmon fillets in the freezer...Costco sells a long rack of it, so I cut it into 2 person portions and freeze.
