Pre-heat oven to 375F
1) Wash and dry your salmon fillets. Then align a baking dish with parchment paper. Parchment paper is a great tool because you do not have to add more oil to the baking dish. You save on some calories this way. Sprinkle salmon with extra virgin olive oil and then season with kosher salt and fresh ground black pepper to taste.
2) Grate the fresh horseradish either in a food processor or a box grater. Once finished grating sprinkle evenly over salmon and season again with a little bit of kosher salt and black pepper. Sprinkle a little more olive oil and a touch of honey.
3) Put into the oven and roast it for about 13 to 15 minutes till it's just about cooked thru. You want your fish to be nice and moist. One great way to check if your fish is done is to see if it flakes easily. If it does then it's good to go into your belly :). Here is the finished product.
The horseradish once cooked thru becomes sweeter. So it's a very nice combination. Sweet and a little spicy. Enjoy this delicious and super nutritional.
i love the idea of using fresh horseradish. i will try this next time, pat. also... lining with parchment paper, i need to get some. i am a recent convert to kosher salt too!
ReplyDeleteYea me to. It comes out really funky tasting in a good way :). Please do and let me know how you like it. Definitely get some parchment paper so convenient and you can use it for any type of roasting or baking :). I love that kosher salt. I like it because it's a bigger grain salt and also has less sodium per Teaspoon then many other salts out there and it's natural with no added chemicals :). Welcome aboard Leeee hehehe.
