Healthy Recipe

Ingredients:
1/2 cup finely chopped onion
1 tablespoon olive oil

2 teaspoons finely shredded orange peel
4 (5 to 6 ounce) salmon fillets
1 teaspoon lemon pepper

Directions:
Preheat oven to 450 degrees.

Cook onion in oil three minutes. Stir in bread crumbs, water and orange peel.

Make a pocket in each fillet by cutting a slit in the side about 2 inches long and almost through to the other side. Fill each pocket with one-quarter of the onion mixture.

Place stuffed fillets in a shallow baking pan. Sprinkle with lemon pepper. Bake for four to six minutes per one-half inch of thickness.
