DH fell in love with salmon with this dish, and we have been poaching fish in sherry or dry vermouth ever since. The herb-shrimp sauce makes it very special. I use dry sherry or dry vermouth instead of dry wine because they store indefinitely. The original recipe in "Simply the Best" called for reduced-calorie margarine, but I prefer using 1/2 butter (as long as the food doesn't swim in it!) and 1/2 olive oil. This is one diet-friendly recipe that doesn't seem like a diet recipe. In the old WW program one portion was 4 "thingies".

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit. Spray 8-inch square baking pan with nonstick cooking spray.
- Pat salmon dry. Place in the pan, and add the sherry or vermouth (or dry white wine if you insist).
- Bake salmon at 350 degrees Fahrenheit until the fish is opaque and flakes easily when tested with a fork, 15-20 minutes. (Alternatively, we have successfully poached the fish in the microwave, check for flakiness at 6 minutes.).
- In a medium nonstick saucepan, heat olive oil, and melt butter. Add the flour and cook, stirring constantly, about 1 minute.
- Gradually stir in the broth and lemon juice. Cook, stirring constantly, until the mixture boils and thickens, 2-3 minutes.
- To the saucepan add the shrimp, oregano, rosemary and pepper. Cook, stirring as needed, until heated through, about 2 minutes.
- Place the salmon on a platter.
- Pour the juices from the salmon baking pan into the sauce. Cook, stirring as needed, until heated through, about 1 minute.
- Pour the sauce over the salmon and serve. Garnish with fresh rosemary sprigs.
