Cilantro Lemon Salmon

Easy weeknight meal.

What you need:

Wild Salmon
Lemon (2)
garlic
Cilantro
Rosemary
olive oil
salt and pepper

Cilantro Sauce:

This cilantro sauce is a staple in our house. Great to use on any meat or salad. Store in frig after you make; leave on counter while you’re cooking or heat up a little bit in microwave to loosen up.

In a mini chopper combine one bunch of cilantro (stems removed), 3 cloves of garlic, squeeze 1 lemon, 2 tablespoons of olive oil (you can add more or less to your preference. Pulse until consistency similar to a pesto sauce.

Next,

Slice 3 thin slices of lemon. I use this as my base which eliminates the skin from sticking to the pan (I really try to refrain from cooking with foil, etc…
Lay the salmon on top of the lemon slices.
Top with about 2 tablespoons of Cilantro sauce, drizzle olive oil over the top, squeeze remainder of lemon, salt and pepper and a sprig of rosemary.

Bake 400 for 25 minutes. Serve over a salad or with a side of veggies.
