Beautiful baked salmon with an amaretto butter sauce. My husband's most requested dish.
Ingredients:
1 lb salmon (can be whole piece or filets)
2 tablespoons dijon mustard
1/2 cup italian seasoned breadcrumbs
salt and pepper
1/4 cup unsalted butter
1 fluid ounce amaretto
Directions:
1. Wash salmon and pat dry.
2. Place skin side down on foil lined baking sheet.
3. Season with salt and pepper, cover with a thin layer of dijon mustard.
4. Sprinkle bread crumbers over salmon.
5. Bake at 350 for 15-20 minutes depending upon thickness of salmon.
6. When it is almost done, turn oven to broil, move salmon up and broil for 5 minutes or until breadcrumbs are golden brown.
7. Remove from oven. Salmon should easily release from skin. Place on plates.
8. While salmon is broiling, melt butter in a small saucepan.
9. Add amaretto.
10. Cook for one minute.
11. Pour over salmon.
12. I usually serve this with herb buttered noodles but it would also be really good with a nice rice pilaf.
