Easy baked salmon recipe?
I've never cooked salmon before. Does anyone have an easy healthy recipe for baked salmon fillets? Thanks!
Answers:
Cut a large square of baking paper, place it on top of a larger square of foil and place the salmon on top.
Slice some lemon and fresh herbs over the salmon, maybe some fennel if you have any, then fold all the sides up into a little sealed parcel. Before you seal it up, add some white wine or stock and a tiny drizzle of olive oil then scrunch the top together. Pop it in the oven for about 15 minutes (You can do this with any whole fish and will take 30-50 minutes depending on the size of the fish. It's great for an easy, impressive dinner party ) The fish will stay really moist and you don't have to worry about it drying out if you overdo it a bit.
Make sure you take the sealed parcel to the table then open it up in front of your guests (or yourself) so the lovely cooking smells steam out over the table.
Serve with steamed new potatoes.
