Time 30m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 8

2 tablespoons olive oil, divided
2 teaspoons lemon juice, divided
salt and ground black pepper to taste
2 (8 ounce) fillets wild salmon fillets
½ teaspoon Himalayan salt, or to taste
½ cup finely crushed almonds
1 (6 ounce) package baby spinach leaves
1 cup cherry tomatoes

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 500 degrees F (260 degrees C). Grease a baking pan with 1 tablespoon olive oil.
  • Mix remaining olive oil, 1 teaspoon lemon juice, salt, and black pepper together in a bowl to form the salad dressing.

  • Place spinach and tomatoes in a bowl. Add dressing; toss to coat. Serve alongside the salmon.

I thought this recipe was just okay. The salmon was cooked well, but the almond crust was a bit bland. I think I would add some more spices next time.
