Poached Salmon with Mustard Sauce

I was fortunate recently to have a friend bring me some Salmon from Alaska. Oh yeah! I could not wait to cook these babies!  There are so many ways I enjoy Salmon, but because it is Summer and I am watching my waistline, I decided to go for a poach. I do believe blackened pan fried is my absolute favorite way to enjoy it. Baked is healthy too, but a poach in a little bit of white wine and Salmon just falls apart like butter. Here is an easy recipe that every one in my house enjoyed. Naturally gluten free!
