Salmon Teriyaki
I used to prepare salmon this way every week and then years went by without the recipe being used. Two weeks ago I decided to try again and it was a hit.
Ingredients
4-5 slices salmon, appetizer size, skin removed if possible
1 tbsp teriyaki sauce
1 tbsp soy sauce
1-2 tbsp mayonnaise
2-3 drops hot sauce
1 tbsp water
Directions
Preheat oven to 400°F.
Combine all the ingredients, except for the salmon in a medium-size bowl or plate.
Dip each piece of salmon in sauce mixture, front and back.
Bake for 35-40 minutes.
Oven Roasted Turkey Breast
This is one of my family’s favorite recipes. I have made it for Sunday dinner and for Yom Tov and it always comes out perfectly tender.
Ingredients
2-3 lb boneless turkey breast
1-2 tbsp olive oil
½ tsp garlic powder
1 tsp onion powder
1 tsp salt
1 tsp paprika
½ tsp dried parsley
½ tsp dried basil
Pepper to taste
Directions
Preheat oven to 350°F.
Combine all seasonings in a small bowl and mix well.
Coat turkey with olive oil and rub in spice mixture.
Create 4 aluminum balls from foil, place in pan and then place roast on top of them so it is well balanced.
Cook for 90 minutes, uncovered or until internal temperature is 165-170 degrees
Remove from oven, cover and let sit for about 20 minutes before slicing.
