I made this for my husband and I and we thoug it was very good. I think I would use real garlic instead of garlic powder next time. We had leftovers and I used it to make a spinach salad topped with the salmon. THAT was amazing!

Yummy! This is an alternative to the way I have been baking my salmon filets that will move to the front of my favorites list. I also tried it with filet of flounder. The protein for 3.5 oz portions before adding the coating is 19g. of protein & 90 calories/15 cal. from fat. I reduced the baking time because the flounder is thinner, topped each portion with a sprig of fresh Rosemary & a thin slice of lemon. Don’t worry about the leftovers, there probably won’t be any!!
