Salmon Fillets Cordon Bleu In a Lemon/ Lime Butter Sauce

This is a fun variation on the popular Chicken Cordon Bleu using salmon fillets in place of the chicken. I also decided to poach it in a light lemon lime cream butter sauce for a very moist delicious new way to serve salmon. This makes an elegant entree but is easy and quick enough for any time. Serve it with french bread and a salad for a great meal.
