Ingredients
  

  • 2 6 oz / 170 g salmon fillets, skinless and boneless
  • 1 tbsp (15 ml) dried basil
  • 5 oz (140 g) 1 medium tomato, sliced thinly
  • 1 tbsp 15 ml olive oil
  • 2 tbsp (0.4 oz / 10 g) Parmesan cheese, finely grated
  • Nonstick cooking spray
  • Chef’s for Success
  • Select salmon fillets of uniform thickness to ensure they cook evenly and stay moist.
  • For the most tender result, cook salmon until it just flakes, around 135°F / 57°C, as it will continue to cook while resting.

Method
 

  1. Directions
  2. Preheat oven to 375ºF / 190ºC.
  3. Line a baking sheet with foil and coat with nonstick spray.
  4. Place salmon fillets on the prepared baking sheet, leaving space between them.
  5. Sprinkle the dried basil evenly over both fillets.
  6. Arrange the thin tomato slices in a layer over the basil.
  7. Drizzle the olive oil over the tomatoes and salmon.
  8. Scatter the grated Parmesan cheese over the top.
  9. Bake for 15-20 minutes, or until the salmon flakes easily with a fork and the cheese is melted and golden.
  10. Let rest for 5 minutes before serving.
  11. Slice your tomatoes paper-thin. This helps them soften and roast perfectly without making the fish soggy.
  12. Garnish with fresh, thinly sliced basil after baking for a vibrant pop of color and fresh aroma.
