Baked Lemon Garlic Salmon

I know I haven't updated the blog in forever!  Between hurricanes, winter storms in the fall, and then the holidays, life has been pretty hectic!  Now I'm trying to play catch up on about 6 months worth of recipes!  This is a pretty straight forward recipe.  I love fish flavored with lemon!  Sometimes, I have fresh items on hand, but if I don't, I always carry the basic staples in other forms!  Instead of using fresh lemon juice and garlic, I had bottled lemon juice, and jarred minced garlic in the fridge.  Sometimes, you just have to use what you readily have!  I served these fillets with some Parmesan Mashed Potatoes and corn.



Makes (4) 6 oz fillets

Ingredients:
  • 4 tablespoons of minced garlic
  • 3 TBSP of extra virgin olive oil
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 1 tsp Italian seasoning
  • 1 tsp ground black pepper
  • 3 TBSP lemon juice
  • 1 TBSP parsley
  • 4  6-oz salmon fillets
Directions:
  1. Mix all of the ingredients, except fish, in a bowl.  This is your marinade.
  2. Marinate fillets in marinade for at least an hour.  Can marinade up to overnight.
  3. Preheat oven to 375ºF.
  4. Place aluminum foil over casserole or baking dish.  Place fish on aluminum foil, pour marinade over fish and make tent out of foil.
  5. Bake for about a half hour until fish flakes easily with a fork.
