Basic Poached Fish
==================
2 pounds fresh or frozen fish fillet
2 cups water
1/4 cup lemon juice
1 small onion, thinly sliced
1 teaspoon salt
3 peppercorns
2 fresh parsley
1 bay leaf
Thaw fish if frozen. Remove skin and bones from fillets. Cut fish into
serving size portions. Combine water, lemon juice, onion, salt,
peppercorns, parsley, and bay leaf in a well-greased frypan and bring
to a boil. Reduce heat. Place fish in a single layer into hot liquid. Cover
and simmer 8 to 10 minutes or until fish flakes easily when tested with
a fork. Carefully remove fish to a hot platter.
