I can count on two fingers the number of times I've cooked fish...once was last Friday when I made fish tacos, and the other was tonight! Since it's Lent, and we Catholics are discouraged from eating meat on Fridays, I thought it would be a good time to try out my fish-cooking skills...well, that and my dad said something along the lines of, "Let's have salmon this week."
So, salmon it is! I immediately went on the hunt for a salmon recipe, and Taste of Home didn't let me down. I had no idea it was so easy to cook fish! For those of you who are unfamiliar with it and uneasy about it, give it a try. It was even easier than cooking chicken. The glaze in this recipe gave the salmon a sweet flavor and made the fillets a little crispy on top...yum!
Glazed Salmon
Ingredients:
1/3 cup packed brown sugar
1/4 cup unsweetened pineapple juice
2 tablespoons soy sauce
4 salmon fillets (6 ounces each)
Directions:
1. Line a baking pan with foil; grease the foil. Set aside.
2. In a small bowl, combine the brown sugar, pineapple juice and soy sauce.
3. Place salmon skin side down on prepared pan. Spoon sauce mixture over fish.
4. Bake, uncovered, at 350 degrees for 20-25 minutes or until fish flakes easily with a fork, basting frequently with pan juices.
