Ingredients:

Serving

2 1/2 cups fish stock
1 1/2 cups dry white wine
6 slices lemon
4 whole black peppercorns
1 slice yellow onion
1 bay leaf
sprig thyme
1/4 tsp salt
pinch cayenne
1 (2 to 2 1/2 lb) arctic char fillet
3/4 lb fiddlehead ferns, rinsed and trimmed
4 tbsp unsalted butter
3 tbsp chopped shallots
1 tsp garlic
1 lb chanterelle mushrooms , wiped clean and tough ends removed, quartered
1/2 tsp salt
1/4 tsp ground black pepper
1 tbsp chopped fresh thyme
1/4 cup dry white wine
1/4 cup chicken stock
1 tbsp minced fresh parsley

Directions:

In a large, deep skillet or saute pan, combine the fish stock, wine, lemon, peppercorns, onion slice, bay leaf, thyme, salt and cayenne and bring to a gentle boil. Reduce the heat and simmer for 5 minutes. Add the fish skin side down, cover, and poach at a simmer until just cooked through, about 8 minutes.
While the fish is cooking, bring a medium pot of salted water to a boil. Add the fiddlehead ferns and blanch until just tender, about 1 1/2 minutes. Drain in a colander and shock in an ice bath. Drain on paper towels. In a large skillet, melt the butter over medium-high heat. Add the shallots and garlic, and cook for 1 minute. Add the mushrooms, salt, pepper and thyme, and cook, stirring, for 3 minutes. Add the wine and chicken stock, and simmer, stirring, until the liquid has almost evaporated, 4 minutes. Add the fiddlehead ferns and parsley and cook over high heat until warmed through, about 1 to 2 minutes.
Remove the fish from the poaching liquid and place on a serving platter. Spoon the fiddlehead fern-chaterelle mixture over the fish and serve immediately.
