Buttery Lemon-Zest Salmon With Spinach Salade and Fries

Weekly Challenge's Note:

Cooking fish doesn't need to be complicated. This is a simple way to make salmon (boneless, skinless) with no fuss or mess. I use the individually freeze wrapped portions. The sides of salad and potatoes are published in my other recipes. Serve hot. Enjoy!

• 9 ounces salmon (2 4.5 ounce Wild Caught pieces)

Directions:

1. Add zest to melted butter. Coat the rack of a pan with nonstick spray and put about 1/4 inch water in the bottom on the pan making sure it does not touch the top rack. Place frozen salmon on rack and bake for 10 minutes at 350 degrees. Turn salmon over and baste with the buttery zest. Bake three minutes more. Serve with your favorite salad and potato sides. Enjoy!

I seasoned my salmon with Lemon Pepper and fried in some olive oil in a non-stick pan over medium heat, I just prefer fried to baked, the flavor and texture was wonderful. For a side dish I served Styrian "gigantes" (Scarlet Runner Bean Casserole) which complemented the salmon. Thanks for posting. Made for Spring 2012 PAC.
