20101115 Oven Steamed Salmon

(SOURCE: A friend)


My husband who does not like seafood is not home tonight, so I thought I would indulge myself with a yummy and healthy oven steamed salmon dish. This is absolutely great with a glass of chilled white wine, and some steamed new potatoes.


INGREDIENTS
1 salmon fillet
handful of french beans
1 tbsp green pesto
olive oil
juice of half a lemon
sea salt and pepper

METHOD
1. Heat oven to 200 degree C.
2. Fold a meter of aluminium foil in half to make two layers. Lay the beans on the foil, and then the salmon fillet (skin side down). Smear the pesto on the salmon. Drizzle with olive oil, lemon juice, sea salt, and pepper. Wrap up the foil and crease to make a packet.
3. Cook the packet in the oven for about 20 minutes.
