Place strips on bottom and up sides of a 7-qt. oval slow cooker. Pour poaching liquid into slow cooker.

Steps:

• Combine the stock, wine, thyme, garlic, shallot and lemon zest in a wide, deep pan and bring to a simmer. Add the salmon, a pinch of salt and a grind of pepper. Partially cover and simmer until the salmon is fully cooked, 8 to 10 minutes.
