ingredients
- 1 lemon
- 4 salmon fillets
- to taste butter or to taste margarine, spreadable
directions
- Preheat oven to 400 F.
- Cut Salmon Filet width-wise into about 1-1/2 inch pieces.
- Spread a thin layer of butter/margarine over each salmon steak.
- Slice lemon, and place 1 slice of lemon on top of each salmon steak.
- Squeeze lemon juice out of unused portion of lemon evenly over each ste ak.
- Bake for 15-20 minutes.
- Serve with rice. Variations: The margarine is not necessary, however my husband says it's too bland without the margarine, and the lemon flavoring is stronger without the margarine. It also prevents drying if you like your salmon cooked thoroughly.

It was great to find a salmon recipe that used no exotic ingredients, just stuff I had on hand. The only thing I changed was sprinkling on some fresh ground pepper and some coarse Chardonnay Oak smoked salt I had on hand. It was to die for! Had to tear myself away from it! :) Served it with a nice green salad and some white rice.
