BAKED SALMON

Baked salmon is a dish easy enough for a weeknight but boasts layers of flavor. 


Baked salmon with risotto


Ingredients

1 1/2 lbs. skin-on salmon fillet 
3 cloves of garlic (chopped)
3 or 4 sprig of parsley (chopped)
1 lemon juice
1/2 cup olive oil
Salt and black pepper

Keep the salmon skin on.  Yes, you can eat salmon skin.

Directions
Preheat oven at 400 degrees

Mix the chopped parsley, garlic, lemon juice, olive oil and salt and black pepper in a small bowl.
Place a little olive oil on the baking dish.  
Place the salmon skin-side down on the baking dish.
Spread the surface with the mixture of parsley, etc. and place in oven.
Bake until the salmon is firm and flakes easily when pressed.

Depending on the size and weight of your fish, baked salmon cooks at 400 degrees and will be ready after 20 to 25 minutes.


One of my favorite things about this baked salmon dish is its versatility.  It pairs well with rice, salad or roasted potatoes.  We enjoy it with risotto with spinach.
