"My mother just went on a "cardiac diet" and I saw this on the American Heart Association website. It takes minutes to prepare, is delicious, and healthy. I served with a dollop of dill sauce on the side made of sour cream, Dijon mustard, dill and lemon. I didn't use the liquid - maybe next time."

• Ingredients: 6
• Serves: 4

ingredients

• 1 lb salmon fillet, cut into 4 portions, skin removed, if desired
• 2 tablespoons dry white wine
• 1⁄4 teaspoon salt

directions

1. Preheat oven to 425°F Coat a 9-inch glass pie pan or an 8-inch glass baking dish with cooking spray.
2. Place salmon, skin-side (or skinned-side) down, in the prepared pan. Sprinkle with wine. Season with salt and pepper, then sprinkle with shallots. Cover with foil and bake until opaque in the center and starting to flake, 15 to 25 minutes, depending on thickness.
