Creamy Baked Salmon Recipe
Recipe Type:
Salmon,
Seafood,
Wine,
Diet
Yields: 4 servings
Prep time: 15 min
Cook time: 20 min
Ingredients:
2 pounds
salmon filets
3/4 cup sour cream (non-fat)
1/3 cup mayonnaise (non-fat)
2 tablespoons all-purpose
flour
2 tablespoons fresh-squeezed
lemon juice
1/4 teaspoon dried
dill weed
1 (8 ounce) package cream cheese (non-fat)
1 clove
garlic, minced
1/3 cup
white wine
Salt and pepper to taste
Paprika
Preparation:
Preheat oven to 400 degrees F. Wash salmon filets and pat dry. Grease a 9x13-inch baking pan.
Arrange salmon filets, skin side down, in a single layer on the
prepared baking pan.
In a medium bowl, with a wire whisk, blend sour cream, mayonnaise, flour, lemon juice, dill, cream cheese, garlic and wine until smooth: spread over
the salmon. Sprinkle lightly with salt, pepper and paprika.
Bake, uncovered, approximately 15 to 20 minutes or until a
meat thermometer registers an
internal temperature of 140 degrees F (salmon will be slightly opaque in thickest part).
NOTE: During this time the meat continues to cook (meat temperature will rise 5 to 10 degrees after it is removed from the oven) and the juices redistribute.
Approximately cooking times for salmon:
1/4 to 1/3-inch - 3 to 4 minutes
1/2 to 3/4-inch - 4 to 6 minutes
1 to 1 1/2-inch - 8 to 12 minutes
 This
is the type of cooking and meat thermometer that I prefer and
use in my cooking. I get many readers
asking what cooking/meat thermometer that I prefer and use in my
cooking and baking. I, personally, use the
Thermapen Thermometer
shown in the photo on the right. Originally designed
for professional users, the
Super-Fast Thermapen
Thermometer is used by
chefs all over the world. To learn more about this excellent
thermometer and to also purchase one (if you desire), just click
