Salmon Cutlets with Tartar Sauce

Ingredients

Directions

The book gives no oven temperature. The 350°F (175°C) in the steps was added when the recipe was transcribed, as a starting point.

  1. Prepare the salmon cutlets by cleaning and trimming them.

  2. Cook the salmon cutlets in a moderate oven at 350°F (175°C) until cooked through.

  3. Serve the salmon cutlets with Tartar sauce on the side.
