Tex-Mex Salmon

August 3, 2010 @ 5:50 am | Filed under: Food and Drink

Ingredients:

  • 3 cups cilantro
  • 2 Tbsp fresh lime juice
  • 1 tsp ground cumin
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1/2 tsp hot pepper sauce
  • 1/2 cup water
  • 1 1/2 pounds salmon fillets
  • 2 medium yellow peppers, seeded and sliced
  • 2 medium red peppers, seeded and sliced

Instructions:

Puree the cilantro, lime juice, cumin, salt, hot pepper sauce, and water in a blender or food processor. Transfer to a zip-close plastic bag and add the salmon. Squeeze out the air and seal the bag; turn to coat the salmon. Refrigerate, turning the bag occasionally, 1 hour.

Preheat the oven to 400°F. Spray a 9 x 13-inch baking dish with olive oil nonstick spray. Arrange the bell peppers in a single layer in the dish. Bake, turning once, 20 minutes.

Drain the salmon and discard the marinade. Place the salmon on top of the bell peppers. Bake until the fish is just opaque in the center, 10–12 minutes. Remove the skin before eating. Yields 1⁄2 salmon steak and about 1 cup peppers per serving.
