- 1 medium lemon seeds removed, entire fruit, including rind, finely chopped
- 1 garlic clove chopped fine
- ¼ teaspoon dried oregano
- 2 TB white wine vinegar
- Salt and pepper to taste
- ¼ cup olive oil
- 1 ½ pound salmon fillet
Heat oven to 325F. In a small bowl, combine chopped lemon, garlic, oregano and vinegar. Season with salt and pepper, then add olive oil. Mix and set aside.
Season salmon on both sides with salt and pepper. Place skin side down in a 9 x 13 (or similar) baking dish. Spoon half the lemon dressing over the salmon.
Place salmon in oven until just cooked through, approximately 15-20 minutes depending upon the thickness of the salmon. If using a meat thermometer, cook to 145F.
I usually serve this with a green vegetable and a simple salad.
For an impressive presentation, use a whole skin-on salmon fillet. Spread lettuce pieces on a serving platter and place the cooked fillet in large pieces on top of the lettuce. Spoon the remaining lemon dressing over the salmon and lettuce.
