Salmon Fillets

from the kitchen of Shawnalyn

Ingredients:

Boneless skinless salmon fillets
Costco’s mango salsa
Onion
Garlic
Avocado
Lemon
Salt & pepper
Old Bay seasoning (optional)

Directions:

Preheat oven to 350*
Place tinfoil going both directions in a baking dish. Use enough that you can set the fish on top and then wrap the foil up over it and seal it on top while cooking. Season your salmon with salt and pepper. You may also use “Old Bay” seasoning as well. Place in a baking dish. Cut up lemons into wedges and place around the salmon. Place some peeled, semi-smashed garlic cloves around fish as well. Slice onion into thin slices and place all around and on top of fish. Cover with foil. Bake for approx. 30 min. until fish is done. Meanwhile pour some mango salsa into a bowl, dice some avocados and add to the salsa. Warm in microwave. When fish is done, squeeze remaining juice from cooked lemon wedges over top. Remove fish and top with cooked onions and salsa.

There are no real measurements here. I usually use a fillet that is as big as my 9X13 baking dish, and use 2-3 lemons, 3-4 garlic cloves, & 1 onion. Just eyeball the amount of salsa you want. If leftover salsa, it is good with chips. The avocados make it really yummy. I usually have this with garlic mashed potatoes.
