Author: HelenFern
Ingredients
  • 4 Salmon Fillets
  • 8 Tomatillos, husked and washed
  • 4 teaspoons minced jalapeño
  • 1/4 cup chopped cilantro
  • 1 avocado, sliced
  • 4 Tablespoons olive oil
Instructions
  1. Sprinkle salt and pepper on the flesh side of the fillets - generously salt and pepper the skin side.

  2. Place the oil in the bottom of four single serving baking dish, like a gratin dish. Place one salmon, skin side down in each.

  3. Top each with slices of tomatillo (2 tomatillos each) and sprinkle each with a little more salt and pepper and the minced jalapeño.

  4. Place the dishes on the top rack of the oven and broil until the fish is a delicate pink and flakes with a fork (but is not dry). This will take about 10 minutes depending on the thickness of the fillet.

  5. Serve with chopped cilantro and sliced avocado directly out of the cookware.
