    When I posted a "What my mom made for Sunday dinner" video on TikTok, I got SO MANY requests for this salmon recipe - so here it is.

    It's a dish that my mom makes often, and she got the recipe from the Vancouver Sun newspaper in 1999. Over the years, she's adapted the recipe to make it her own, but that was the original inspiration for this dish.

    If you try it out, definitely let me know how you like it!

    Ingredients

    For the marinade

    • ½ cup sun dried tomatoes drained and chopped into small pieces
    • 2 tablespoon fresh parsley minced
    • 3 garlic cloves minced
    • ¾ cup olive oil extra virgin
    • salt and pepper to taste

    Salmon

    • Fresh salmon filet approx. 600g filet
    • cooking spray or olive oil

    Instructions

    Make the marinade

    • Places all marinade ingredients in a jar and stir well or shake. Place in the fridge overnight until ready to use.

    Assemble/cook the salmon

    • Remove the marinade from the fridge. The olive oil will most likely have solidified, so leaving it out at room temperature for about 30 minutes will let it liquify again.
    • Preheat oven to 375°F. Grease a baking dish with olive oil or cooking spray.
    • Place the salmon skin side down in the baking dish. Cut 2 slits down the length of the salmon.
    • Place the marinade in the slits, and place the remaining marinade on top of the salmon.
    • Bake the salmon for about 15-20 minutes, until salmon is opaque and flaky when pulled apart with a fork. or until cooked to your liking.
    • Remove from the oven, and serve!

    Recipe Notes

    Based off sun dried tomato salmon recipe in Vancouver Sun, 1999.
