Recipe of te Week - January 30th 2008

Try this easy to prepare Salmon Recipe with a Southwest Flair! It can be made with any of our Wild Salmon. Cooking time will vary depending on the size of the fillets used. The Taco Seasoning & Guacamole make it ideal for fish tacos too!

Ingredients:
4 Wild Ocean Seafoods® King Salmon Fillets
You Favorite Dry Taco Seasoning - enough to rub generously over each fillet
Guacamole:
Juice of 1 lime
2 ripe avocados mashed
1/4 cup white onion, diced small
1/3 cup sour cream
2 Tbsp minced fresh cilantro
Hot sauce to taste
2 small tomatoes seeded and diced small
Salt to taste

Cooking directions:
Place the seasoned Salmon Fillets about 1 inch apart in a 375 oven for approximately 20 to 30 minutes depending on the thickness of the fillets (cooking tip: To check for doneness look at the white lines created by the Salmon fat, lift a corner of the fillet with a fork. It should be moist & flakey. Don’t overcook as the fillet will still be cooking as it moves to the plate.

Guacamole:
Add all measured ingredients to a large bowl. Mash with a fork or with a potato masher. Leave a little chunky for added texture. Check for seasoning and set aside. The guacamole is best served at room temperature with this dish. Refrigerate the leftover guacamole.

Plating:
Place a fillet of salmon on the plate with a large dollop of guacamole on top. Serve with a salad of mixed greens and a citrus dressing of pineapple or lime & your favorite vegetable or starch.
