Steps:
- In a small pan, arrange fillets in a single layer. Cover with water until fillets are just submerged. Remove fillets and set aside. Add garlic, carrot, herbs, peppercorns, and wine. Bring to a boil, season with salt, then turn off heat; add fillets skin-side down, and cook, covered, until slightly underdone in the center, about 10 minutes per inch of thickness.
