Nov 27, 2007 - Here is a recipe for Salmon that is good and easy! I am going to write this as if I were cooking for 4, but you could easily make it for 1 by cutting down on the ingredients. 3 points for one 4oz fillet with tomato topping What you need: 4 4oz Salmon fillets (I use frozen fillets that come to 2 points per oz cooked) 1 Can chopped tomatoes (fresh can work but the canned adds something) 2 Scallions finely sliced 1TBS Olive Oil 1tsp Oregano 1tsp Thyme 2TBS Lemon Juice Salt and Pepper 4sheets Aluminum Foil (Big enough to form a packet around each piece of fish) ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 1.) Mix Olive Oil with a dash of both the Salt and Pepper in a bowl 2.) Coat each Salmon fillet with olive oil mixture/ let sit 3.) In a separate bowl combine the Tomatoes, Scallions, lemon juice and remaining spices 4.) Place each Salmon fillet on one of the aluminum sheets/ form foil into a packet without closing all the way 5.) Spoon Tomato mixture over each fillet/ sealing the packets when finished and placing them on a baking sheet (packets may leak a little) 6.) Bake at 400 for 25mins or until fish fakes easily with a fork This comes out really nicely and goes well with rice or a vegetable like asparagus Enjoy! - 4 Comments
