Super Easy Corn Crusted Baked Salmon

Submitted by grumblebee

"Crunchy on the outside, and tender on the inside with just a hint of garlic, this easy to make dinner goes perfectly with a nice green salad and/or some roasted potatoes. Recipe adapted from one I found on the back of a frozen fish filet package some years ago. ***note*** You may substitute low fat caesar dressing if you are watching calories."

• Ingredients: 7
• Serves: 4

ingredients

• 1⁄3 cup cornmeal
• 1⁄2 teaspoon salt
• 1⁄2 teaspoon black pepper
• 1⁄2 teaspoon dried Italian seasoning
• 3 tablespoons caesar salad dressing (creamy)
• 1 tablespoon lemon juice
• 16 ounces salmon fillets (four 4 oz fillets, fresh or frozen)

directions

1. Stir together cornmeal and seasonings in a shallow dish.
2. In separate shallow dish, combine dressing and lemon juice.
3. Dip each salmon fillet in Caesar mixture, then dip in cornmeal mixture to coat well on both sides.
4. Place on a baking sheet (that has been sprayed with non-stick cooking spray) in single layer.
5. Bake at 450 F for 6 to 8 minutes or until fillets flake easily with a fork. Depending on your oven, you may need more or less time. (so keep at eye on the fish).
