PARMESAN BAKED SALMON

This recipe is very easy to make, low calorie and bursting with flavor. I found it in one of my favorite cookbooks, Easy Dinners: Healthy Recipes. I used Miracle Whip instead of the light mayo to shave off a few extra calores.

Time 27m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 6

4 skinless salmon fillets, 3/4 to 1 inch thick
nonstick cooking spray
1/4 cup light mayonnaise
2 tablespoons grated parmesan cheese
1 tablespoon sliced green onion
1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce

Steps:

  • Thaw fish, if frozen. Rinse fish; pat dry with paper towels. Coat a 2-quart square or rectangular baking dish with nonstick cooking spray. Set aside.
  • In a small bowl stir together mayonnaise dressing, Parmesan cheese, the green onions, and the Worcestershire sauce. Spread mayonnaise mixture over fish fillets evenly, about 1/4 inch thick.
  • Bake, uncovered, in a 450 degree oven just until fish flakes easily with a fork (allow 4 to 6 minutes per 1/2inch thickness of fish).

Tips:

  • Use fresh salmon: Fresh salmon has a better flavor and texture than frozen salmon. If you're using frozen salmon, thaw it completely before cooking.
  • Choose a thick salmon fillet: A thick salmon fillet will cook more evenly and will be less likely to dry out.
  • Season the salmon well: Season the salmon with salt, pepper, and any other desired spices before cooking. This will help to enhance the flavor of the fish.
  • Cook the salmon at a high temperature: Cooking the salmon at a high temperature will help to create a crispy crust and will prevent the fish from drying out.
  • Use a good quality Parmesan cheese: Using a good quality Parmesan cheese will help to create a flavorful and crispy crust.
  • Serve the salmon immediately: Salmon is best served immediately after it is cooked. This will help to ensure that the fish is moist and flaky.

Conclusion:

Parmesan-baked salmon is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a weeknight meal. The salmon is cooked in a creamy Parmesan sauce that is both flavorful and indulgent. The dish can be served with a variety of sides, such as roasted vegetables, mashed potatoes, or rice.
