Preparation

Step 1

Wash salmon and pat dry. Season with salt and pepper. Arrange on an ungreased baking sheet.

In a bowl, combine tomatoes, onions, juice from lemon and cilantro to make salsa. Stir in jalapeno as desired and to taste. Season to taste with salt and pepper.

Drain salsa well. In a bowl, combine with cumin and mayonnaise. Spoon mayo-salsa mixture over salmon fillets and spread on top to coat.

Bake in a 375 F oven for around 20 minutes, or until desired doneness. Using a spatula, carefully lift salmon to serving platters.

TIP:
To cook fish on the grill, position fillets on foil with edges turned up. Spoon mayo-salsa mixture on top. Cook for around 15 minutes with the lid closed.
