Baking salmon fillets, covered, with a little wine and some shallots produces moist, succulent results as long as you remember the two cardinal rules of fish cookery: choose only the freshest fish and don't overcook it. Serve topped with Light Lemon Sauce with Herbs or Creamy Dill Sauce.

Makes 4 servings

ACTIVE TIME: 10 minutes

TOTAL TIME: 30 minutes

EASE OF PREPARATION: Easy

1 pound salmon fillet, cut into 4 portions, skin removed, if desired
2 tablespoons dry white wine
1/4 teaspoon salt
Freshly ground pepper to taste
2 tablespoons finely chopped shallot (1 medium)
Lemon wedges for garnish

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.
3. When the salmon is ready, transfer to dinner plates. Spoon any liquid remaining in the pan over the salmon and serve with lemon wedges.

Excellent! I didn't have white wine so I used chicken broth instead but it was still delicious. The creamy dill sauce is also a MUST - I can't wait to make this again.

Sounds good, what can I use instead of the dry white wine?

Chris, OK

The salmon was awesome - but the sauce does not match the picture. I would make it again.

It was excellent and the salmon stayed really moist! I made it with the creamy dill sauce which was very nice as well!

I loved this recipe. It was SO easy and I made a lemon sauce to put on top - we made this recipe 2 times in 2 weeks!

Carly, Midland, MI

I make this at least once every 2 weeks and it never ceases to amaze me how delicious the salmon turns out! And it's so easy!!!
