Baked Salmon With Honey And Almonds - cooking recipe

Ingredients

1/2 salmon fillet, with skin (700 to 800 g or 1.5 to 2 lb)
70 g almonds (2.5 oz)
2 tablespoons honey
salt (optional)

Preparation

Place the salmon in an oven proof dish, skin side down.
Coarsely chop the almonds (I ground raw, unsalted almonds into coarse meal).
Using a spoon, spread honey on the fillet.
Season with salt (optional) and then sprinkle chopped almonds on top.
Bake the salmon fillet for about 15 to 20 minutes at 200 C (400 F). The salmon is finished when its meat is light pink, and the meat flakes apart. Warning: pan frying sucks. Do not use tongs. Repeat: do not use tongs!
Serving suggestion: Serve with fava beans and a nice chianti. Alternatively, a salad and fresh bread.
