Herb Salmon:
- 1 large salmon filet 1-inch thick
- 1 bottle Grey Poupon
- 2 cups chopped herbs cilantro, basil, parsley, rosemary, green onion, any other herbs that you love... get a good mix. Remove all stems, use ONLY the leaves. Use a knife to finely chop and grind up all herbs. DO NOT use a food processor.
- Roasted garlic see above, crushed
- Hollandaise optional
Slather salmon with Grey Poupon, use the whole bottle or about 1 cup. Top with herbs and roasted garlic. Cover so it looks like a nice, thick "herb blanket" herb crust.
Cook in oven at 325 degrees for 20 minutes (20 minutes per inch of thickness) in a glass baking dish or baking sheet (or something oven proof). Serve with garlic oil (from roasted garlic), lemon, and hollandaise.
Great with rice, veggies, or crackers. (I served my Dad's over a bed of cooked spinach and garlic)
This flaky salmon is perfect for a busy weeknight because it comes together so quickly. Need something to go on the side? Try:
- Rice pilaf
- Baked potato with melted butter (yum..)
- Broccoli
- Roasted veggies crusted with parmesan and herbs (veggies include: zucchini, asparagus, potato wedges, brussels sprouts, any of your favorites)
