Baked Salmon

Plan Z Phase: This is a Z2 (ZReduction) recipe.

A quick, easy, and simple fish dish to brighten up your weekday meals. Try pairing the salmon with some of my Zola-fied “Berghoff” spinach for a complete and tasty dinner.

Serving Size: Serves 2

Ingredients:

  • 2 six to eight ounce pieces of salmon. All skin removed
  • 2 Tbl of vinaigrette. Your choice of flavor. Non-sweet. I used champagne vinaigrette. (I am going to clear some full-fat dressings for Plan Z. This is the first recipe using salad dressing).
  • 1/2-1 tsp of dried basil (up to you how intense you want your basil flavor)
  • Sea salt

Instructions:

Heat oven to 375 degrees.

Put the fish pieces in an ovenproof pan that has been sprayed with olive oil. Drizzle dressing over the fish. Let marinate in your refrigerator for 15 minutes. Don’t marinate it much longer or the vinegar in the dressing will being to ‘cook the fish’. Sprinkle the basil over the fish and marinade.

Cover dish with aluminum foil.

Transfer to your oven and bake for 15-20 minutes, or until fish is done to your liking. Grate sea salt and pepper to taste.

I served mine over Zola-fied “Berghoff” spinach.

Enjoy!

Cheers,
