From The Heart Smart Diet Plan on eDiets
Here’s a fabulous salmon recipe with a funny-sounding name.
Salsa cruda is simply uncooked salsa. Baking the salmon helps
it retain its moistness. The fresh ingredients in the salsa
complement this delicate, baked salmon wonderfully.
5 oz salmon filet
1/4 tsp cumin
1/2 tsp chili powder
1 Italian plum tomato
1/3 cup chopped or sliced cucumber
1/4 small red onion
2 Tbsp fresh cilantro (coriander)
1/4 bell pepper
1 Tbsp fresh lemon juice
1. Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Coat a baking sheet with cooking
spray. Rinse and pat the salmon dry.
2. In a small bowl, whisk together half of the lemon juice with
the cumin and chili powder until well blended. Coat both sides
of the salmon with the lemon juice mixture. Place salmon on
baking sheet and bake for about 10-12 minutes until cooked
through and opaque.
3. Rinse and chop the tomato, cucumber, red onion, pepper and
cilantro. Combine all vegetables in a bowl with the remaining
lemon juice. Cover and let stand 5-10 minutes for flavors to
blend. Serve salmon topped with salsa.
