Feasting Fridays v1: The Baked Salmon

One of my new years resolutions this year was to try at least one new recipe a week.

In addition to that, I would like to keep a record of these recipes and share them with ya'll.

I plan to do this on Fridays (hence the name Feasting Fridays)

So last night, I found a recipe on allrecipes.com

that was called

Baked Salmon II

Now I am a HUGE salmon lover.

So this, I was definitely looking forward to.

In addition, it was easy.

I mean real easy.

And fairly inexpensive once you get all the ingredients.

Total price: $12.00

*but this included getting all the ingredients, and really now that I have them, it would only cost me about $6.00 for two pieces of fresh salmon next time I wanted to make it.

Prep Time: 15 minutes

Cook time: 45 minutes

Ready in: 2 hours

Serves: 2

Ingredients

• 2 cloves garlic, minced
• 6 tablespoons light olive oil
• 1 teaspoon dried basil
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 1 teaspoon ground black pepper
• 1 tablespoon lemon juice
• 1 tablespoon fresh parsley, chopped
• 2 (6 ounce) fillets salmon

Directions

1. In a medium glass bowl, prepare marinade by mixing garlic, light olive oil, basil, salt, pepper, lemon juice and parsley. Place salmon fillets in a medium glass baking dish, and cover with the marinade. Marinate in the refrigerator about 1 hour, turning occasionally.
2. Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
3. Place fillets in aluminum foil, cover with marinade, and seal. Place sealed salmon in the glass dish, and bake 35 to 45 minutes, until easily flaked with a fork.

 Served with pasta and vegetables and salad on the side. And it definitely made its way into my recipe book. This is a must try, especially if you are a salmon lover, and so quick and easy
