This salmon dish is very easy to make and it is delicious. You can use bottled Caesar dressing if you do not have time to make the dressing. I’m not a huge fan of bottled dressing but Girard’s does make a pretty good one.
Caesar Salmon
What you will need-
2 garlic cloves, minced 2 teaspoons anchovy paste
2 tablespoons fresh lemon
1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
3/4 cup mayonnaise
2/3- 1 cup canola oil
1/2 cup freshly grated Parmesan
2 lbs fresh salmon
Salt and pepper
Romaine lettuce
Parmesan cheese slivers
Cherry tomatoes
Croutons
How to-
Add the first 5 ingredients to your blender, stream in the amount of oil that you like the consitency of your dressing to be and then add your parmesan cheese. Season the salmon with a little salt and pepper. Go easy on the salt because the Worcestershire sauce and anchovy paste is very salty. Coat salmon with about 1/4 cup of the dressing or to your likings. Pop in the fridge for a couple of hours and let the dressing do its magic.
Remove from fridge and preheat oven to 375 degree. Bake for about 8 minutes and then turn the oven to broil. I keep the door cracked and watch closely. Broil for about 5-8 minutes or until fish is done. When the fish begins to flake and there is a little whiteness coming out from the side, you know it is ready. Don’t overcook salmon. There is nothing worse than overcooked salmon. Yucko! Keep in mind that the fish will continue to cook after you take out of the oven. Remove from oven and let rest for about 8-10 minutes. Toss lettuce with caesar dressing and add your toppings. Serve fish on top of salad.
