Simple Roasted Salmon
If salmon isn't your thing, substitute almost any fish; try swordfish, halibut or even redfish or trout. If the filet is thin, check the fish after 5-7 minutes in the oven. Top with sesame seeds, your favorite fresh herbs (thyme, basil, parsley or chives) or a squeeze of fresh lemon.

- 2-3 pound side of salmon preferably wild, or 4-6 individual 6 oz. filets
- Sea salt and fresh ground pepper
- 2 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil
- 1/2 cup dry white wine
Preheat oven to 400 degrees.
Cover a sheet pan with parchment paper or use a large roasting pan; rub about a tablespoon of olive oil on the parchment paper or pan. Place the fish skin side down and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Drizzle with the olive oil.
Add the white wine to the pan.
Cook the fish in the middle of the oven until opaque, about 15 minutes. Serve with lemon wedges on the side.
