Pink salmon baked with lemon in the oven in foil

Step-by-step preparation

Cooking time: 45 mins

1. STEP 1

   

   How to bake pink salmon with lemon in the oven in foil? To begin, prepare all the necessary ingredients. Turn on the oven to 180 degrees in advance. Wash the lemon and onion. Clean and gut the fish if necessary. If the fish is not decapitated, remove the head, as well as the gills. They can impart an unpleasant bitter taste to cooked fish.

2. STEP 2

   

   Dry the fish thoroughly and trim off the fins. If you wish, you can trim the tail, I don’t do this. Make cuts on both sides of the fish carcass every 1-2 cm. Salt and pepper the fish on all sides, as well as inside. Pay special attention to the cut areas.

3. STEP 3

   

   Coarsely chop the green onions and cut the white part of the onion into halves. Chop the garlic in a way convenient for you. Cut the lemon into slices or half rings. It all depends on the size of the fish and the lemon. The main thing is that the lemon slices fit into the cuts on the fish.

4. STEP 4

   

   Line a baking sheet with foil. Pour 1-2 tablespoons of olive oil onto the foil and spread it over the entire surface. Stuff the belly of the fish with chopped green onions, garlic, basil leaves and a couple of lemon slices.

5. STEP 5

   

   Place lemon slices into the slits. Drizzle the remaining olive oil on top. Wrap the pink salmon in foil so that it fits snugly around the fish. Bake pink salmon in an oven preheated to 180 degrees for about 25-30 minutes.

   Bon appetit!

According to the recipe “pink salmon baked with lemon in the oven in foil,” I prepared salmon. I took everything that was listed in the ingredients, only I had dried basil. I added regular onion rings to the filling. I cut off the tails and heads of the fish and used them to make fish soup. I cleaned the fish, it was very easy and quick to clean the salmon, I removed the insides, washed them and dried them with napkins. Then I salted it and stuffed it. I baked it in foil for about 20 minutes and another 10 minutes uncovered so that the fish was browned. It is important not to overcook it in the oven so that the finished dish remains juicy. It turned out to be a wonderful dinner! I love red fish very much and am always happy to cook it according to a new recipe. Thank you!
