Simple baked salmon

Submitted by: aLyStEr...

Ingredients:

1 whole Salmon (2-3lbs)
1/2 Lemon, sliced
1/2 Orange, sliced
1/2 cup Onions, sliced
1 glass White Wine or 1/2 cup Water
Salt and Pepper
Fresh Herbs (Chervil, Dill, Parsley or Tarragon).

Method:

- Place the cleaned salmon on a piece of foil large enough to encase the whole fish. Heat the oven to 375F and place sliced lemon, oranges and onion in the cavity of the fish. Tuck in the herbs.

- Bring the foil up around the fish and pour in a glass of white wine, or water if preferred. Season with salt and pepper and tightly secure the foil to form a seal. Carefully lift onto a large baking sheet.

- The baking time can be determined by measuring the widest part of the \\\'neck\\\' of the fish. Bake for 5 minutes per 2.5cm. When done, loosen the foil and allow to cool completely.
