Ingredients

2 cups water
1 cup white wine
1 medium onion, sliced
1 celery rib, sliced
1 medium carrot, sliced
2 tablespoons lemon juice
3 fresh thyme sprigs
1 fresh rosemary sprig
1 bay leaf
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon pepper
4 salmon fillets (1-1/4 inches thick and 6 ounces each)
Lemon wedges

Directions

In a 3-qt. slow cooker, combine the first 11 ingredients. Cook, covered, on low 45 minutes.
Carefully place fillets in liquid; add additional warm water (120° to 130°) to cover if needed. Cook, covered, just until fish flakes easily with a fork (a thermometer inserted in fish should read at least 145°), 45-55 minutes. Remove fish from cooking liquid. Serve warm or cold with lemon wedges.
