Cold Poached Salmon with Red Bell Pepper and Parsley Salsa

Preparation

1. Step 1

   Bring 2 cups water, wine, 2 tablespoons onion, 2 tablespoons dill and 1 1/2 teaspoons garlic to boil in wide saucepan or skillet. Add potatoes. Reduce heat; cover and simmer until potatoes are tender, about 20 minutes. Using slotted spoon, transfer potatoes to bowl. Cool.

   Step 2

   Add salmon steaks to poaching liquid in same saucepan. Cover and simmer over medium-low heat just until salmon is opaque in center, about 7 minutes. Using spatula, transfer salmon to plate and cool. Cut salmon steaks in half; remove skin and bones. Cut salmon into 1-inch pieces.

   Step 3

   Combine parsley, lemon juice, oil, 2 tablespoons dill and 1 1/2 teaspoons garlic in processor. Chop finely. Transfer to small bowl. Mix in bell pepper, capers and 2 tablespoons onion. Season with salt and pepper. (Potatoes, salmon and salsa can be made 6 hours ahead. Cover separately; chill. Let stand at room temperature 30 minutes before continuing.)
