Satisfying Salmon

This is a wonderful salmon recipe that I got from my Grandma Sarah who I absolutely love cooking and baking with. She is the one who got me into enjoying baking and cooking. This salmon is very flavorful, light, and luscious and so easy to make. The sauce is very creamy and divine, yet it isn't heavy or rich at all. My family really enjoyed it as well, they all said that it tasted really, really good! So, I definitely reccomend this; get in the kitchen and start cooking and I am sure that you will be very satisfied! Salmon with a Lemon Mayo Sauce:
Ingredients:
-4 salmon fillets
-1/2 cup mayonnaise (I used Hellman's cholesterol free mayo with 1/2 the fat and calories and it worked out great)
-1 Tablespoon lemon juice (next time I will also use some of the lemon zest, just to give it a little bit more of a lemon flavor)
-1/4 cup butter, softened
-1 teaspoon minced garlic
-1 small onion, very thinly sliced
-salt and pepper, to taste
Directions:
Preheat the oven to 375 degrees. Season the salmon with desired amount of salt and pepper. In a small or medium bowl mix together the mayo, lemon juice, butter, and minced garlic, and spread over the salmon. Sprinkle with thinly sliced onions. Bake for 25-30 minutes.


Mmmmm....so creamy and divine! Enjoy!
