    Mmm... Salmon en croute is so nice but I'm not sure how many calories per portion. It's probably too many but I'm sure you could make a low calorie version.

    Pastry is brutal for calories, you'd have to roll it pretty thin and even then it would have to be a treat.

    Maybe something could be done with filo pastry, which is bad but not as utterly ridiculous calorie wise as puff pastry?

    I only have it as a treat and I have salad with it with a very light dressing.

    I had a salmon fillet with no sauce a few weeks ago and I thought it was really bland. I guess it was missing the pastry and the lovely creamy sauce :P

    My family and I have salmon at least once a week! We like marinating ours for at least an hour in thr fridge with low sodium soy sauce and bourbon (equal parts.) Then we either grill them or throw them in a pan for about 5 mins on each side with a quick drizzle of honey and some pepper. :) Serve with lemon wedges.

  • I love salmon and eat it about once a week. I like it two different ways:

    First way is to squeeze lemon all over it and then sprinkle basil on it. I then place a couple of lemon wedges on top and bake it in the over. Or if you are camping like I was when I first tried this recipe, you can wrap it up in tin foil and place over an open fire for about 40 minutes.

    The other way I like it is to marinade it in a Sesame Ginger (Lowry's has a good marinade as do the generic store brands) and bake it in the oven for 35-40 minutes. You can also cook it over an open fire too!

    Bon Appetite!

    I like my salmon sweet & tangy.

    Maple & Soy:

    1 T. Low sodium soy sauce
    1 T. Pure maple syrup

    Let sit at least 15 minutes. Either bake or grill

    Grilled Alaskan Salmon (this ones my favorite)

    1/4 C. Soy sauce
    1/4 C. Olive oil
    1/4 C. Brown sugar
    Lemon Pepper
    Garlic Salt

    Sprinkle Garlic Salt and Lemon Pepper to taste. Mix Soy sauce, olive oil and brown sugar in bowl. Let salmon marinate for at least 2 hours. Grill.

    this sounds delish!
