On the way home from work I stopped by the Kroger to pick up some goodies for dinner. In the spirit of Lent, I went with fish. I've learned to like fish over the last few years. I used to be able to do fish that came fried, but that was about it. Now I've really come to like other fish. This year I've vowed to learn to cook it myself - so here is another attempt. I just threw together a Salmon with a tzatziki. Tzatziki is fun to spell, and it also tastes yummy - a greek cucumber yogurt dip. Mine wasn't a real tzatziki, but close enough for me :)
Ingredients
Salmon
Olive Oil
Pepper
Garlic Salt
Dill Weed
Greek Yogurt
Cucumber
Directions
1. Preheat the oven to 400 degrees.
2. Place Wash and pat dry the salmon. Lightly drizzle with olive oil on both sides.
3. Place in the bottom of a glass pan and lightly season with pepper, garlic salt, and dill. Bake for 20 minutes or until cooked through and can be flaked with a fork.
4. Meanwhile, chop up a portion of cucumber. Mix chopped cucumber and dill with greek yogurt. 5. Serve salmon with the tzatziki sauce on the side.
I had made a similar salmon dish during my first ever escapade in cooking fish a few years back... It wasn't nearly as good as this one. This got two big thumbs up - no leftover fish. There was a little leftover tzatziki. I'm planning to eat it as a dip with crackers tomorrow.
Totally EASY to make, very yummy, and healthy. Definitely worth repeating

Yeah Cooking with Sarah!! Not that I could ever try this particular dish as I think salmon is quite the foul smelling fish. Some things you just can't get past the smell...
