Today I going to teach you Simplest Baked Salmon.
Salmon contains high Omega-3 fatty acids, high protein and high vitamins, it is classified as oily fish. Baked salmon doesn't add any oil, so it will be more healthier than fry fish.
- Salmon skin (better with skin on), salt and pepper that's all.
- For the Sauce, you will need more basil leaves and olive oil, garlic and lemon juice is up to your favourite.
- If you don't like pine nuts or allergy to nuts product, you can take it out.
Salmon:
- Preheat your oven in 180 - 200c.
- Rub the whole salmon with a little bit of salt and pepper.
- Place baking sheet or cooking paper on the baking tray, this can prevent salmon stick on the tray.
- Place your salmon with skin down and bake for 12 - 15 mins, maybe lesser.
- Take out the tray from oven, turn the salmon with the skin facing on top and bake again for around 10 mins. This can make the skin crunchy.
Pesto Sauce:
- Place all the ingredients into food processor or grinding bowl.
- Grind until the ingredients become smooth, you can add more olive oil while grinding.
- Add salt and pepper to create your favourite taste.
Serve with anything you like. You can serve with asparagus, feta cheese salad or macaroni. Be creative for the side dishes.
