I had baked salmon at a friend's house recently. (She is an Alaskan native and had some salmon she brought back from vacation. Yummy) She spread mayo and some seasonings on the fish then baked it. I had never heard of that before, but it was really good. I came up with my own twist using that idea. I made this last night and it was wonderful. Hope you enjoy! Ingredients:
2 -3 lbs salmon fillets (whatever your preference) or 2 -3 lbs steaks (whatever your preference) |
1 cup mayonnaise (full fat, all measurements are approximate.) |
1 tablespoon fresh dill (if dried probably 1 1/2 t) |
1 tablespoon lemon juice (or 1-2 pkt of true lemon) |
seasoning salt |
pepper |
Directions:
1. Combine all ingredients (except salmon).
2. Stir well.
3. Add a few dashes of seasoning salt and a few grinds of fresh pepper. Taste for seasoning preference. All measurements are approximate.
4. Place fish into a baking pan sprayed with oil or rubbed with olive oil or butter.
5. Season lightly with seasoned salt and pepper then generously spread mayo mixture all over the top of the fish. Make it to the thickness you prefer. I had about 1/4 in or so.
6. Bake uncovered in a 450 degree oven until fish is almost done (mine took 15-20 min for fillets which seemed a bit long, but they weren't done.)
7. Then broil until lightly golden.
