1 onion, sliced into half circles
2 garlic cloves, crushed
3-5 parsley leaves
1-2 dry bay leaves
3-5 peppercorns
4 Tablespoons white wine, plus 1-2 Tablespoons more for the sauce
1 can (14 oz) evaporated milk
½ - 1 teaspoon Old bay seasoning
salt, pepper, to taste
1 Tablespoon butter
1 Tablespoon flour
½ Tablespoon fresh dill, minced

  • Layer the onions on the bottom of the skillet.
  • Add the crushed garlic cloves, fresh parsley leaves, white wine, dry bay leaf and peppercorns.

  • Bake for 20-25 minutes until the fish easily flakes with a fork but isn't falling apart.
  • Use a slotted spoon to gently take out the fish and spoon some of the delicious liquid over it.
  • OR
  • Strain the liquid through a fine mesh sieve and set is aside.
  • In a skillet or small saucepan, melt butter and add the flour to it.
  • Cook the flour until it's completely incorporated into the butter and starts to turn just a little bit golden.
  • Pour in the white wine, whisking as you add it. Add the reserved poaching liquid. Cook for about 3 minutes, until the sauce thickens.
  • Add fresh minced dill and pour over the fish.
