Tonight's dinner was a nice salmon filet baked in a mild dill sauce. Preparation was quick and easy and the result was impressive as well as being healthy.
Ingredients
2 filets wild salmon 4 oz. each
12 C raw spinach
Sauce
1/4 C non-fat sour cream
1/2 t. dill
1/2 lemon juiced
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Make the sauce by combining 1/4 C non-fat sour cream, about 1/2 t. dried dill, and the juice of 1/2 lemon. Set this aside in the refrigerator so the flavors can blend while rinsing and drying the salmon filets, about 4 ounces each. Wash about 12 cups of spinach and put them in a microwave safe bowl, covered.
Spray an ovenproof container with olive oil spray and spoon in enough sauce to cover the bottom. Place the salmon filets in
the container, spoon more sauce over the filets, and put the container in the oven for fifteen minutes. While the salmon is baking, microwave the spinach on high for three minutes. Placed 1/3 of the cooked spinach, about four cups raw, onto each plate and top it with a salmon filet. Sprinkled each salmon filet with paprika and serve with remaining sauce on the side.This entree' contains 136 calories, 23 g protein, 8.5 g carbohydrates, 4.17 g fat, and 151.25 mg sodium.
