Earth, Sea and Fire Salmon

SUBMITTED BY: CynthiaRussell

"This dish is amazingly easy to make and the end result will just make you look super good! The secret of its great flavor is in the quality of the ingredients. It doesn't need much seasoning, for it would only disguise the flavor of this great combination of ingredients. Earth (potatoes, onions, roasted peppers), Sea (fresh salmon) and Fire (your favorite oven) make this a winning recipe that you all will love to try!"

DIRECTIONS

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Coat the bottom of a 9x13 inch baking dish generously with olive oil.
Arrange potato slices in a layer on the bottom of the baking dish. Season with a little salt and pepper. Place a layer of onions over the potatoes, then a layer of roasted peppers, seasoning each layer with salt and pepper as desired. Place salmon fillets over the vegetables in the dish, and season with lemon juice, salt and pepper. Place whole mushrooms over the fillets, and drizzle them with sesame oil.
Bake for 45 minutes in the preheated oven. Fish should flake easily with a fork, and potatoes should be tender.

Oh yeah, baby. This one is a winner! Ironically, having been an allrecipes.com member for a long time, I actually learned of this recipe from a posting at another website. Thankfully, they gave proper credit to allrecipes.com. I didn't have the mushrooms called for in the recipe, so I just used a 10 ounce can of mushroom stems and pieces, and it was exceptional. I'm trying to eat healthier again and this one is a nice choice for that. Next time, I may add more onions, potatoes, and roasted red peppers ... more would have been better, especially if one doesn't prepare another side dish. Good stuff!

This was a delicious recipe. My family loved it. I did have a problem getting the potatos to be done enough. I think next time I may put the potatos in first and then add the salmon nearer to the end. I will definately make this again.
