Cut salmon into 4 servings; season both sides with salt and pepper.
Preheat a sauté pan on medium-high heat for 2-3 minutes.
Coat both sides of salmon, using tongs, with tomato mixture and place in sauté pan. Add remaining tomato mixture to pan. Cover and cook for 35 minutes on each side or until fish is opaque and separates easily with a fork. Cooking time will vary depending on thickness of fillets.
This entrée is especially good with the side dish "Fresh Spinach Wild Rice", also in this cookbook. |
