This really simple dish is delicious because coriander complements the flavor of salmon so well. The salmon cooks in its own juices. Thanks to for the recipe Ingredients:
4 boneless salmon fillets |
1/2 teaspoon ground coriander |
1 teaspoon fresh thyme or 1 teaspoon dried thyme |
1 lemon, thinly sliced |
1 bay leaf |
sea salt |
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 350F degrees.

3. Place the fillets in the middle off the dish and sprinkle with coriander and thyme.
4. Grind a little sea salt over the fillets.
5. Place one or two lemon slices on each fillet.

12. Anoint the salmon with a tablespoon of dry white wine or dry vermouth prior to adding the seasonings.
