- First, I preheated the oven to 250 degrees
- In my Le Creuset 3 1/2 quart wide french oven (off topic, but this is the Le Creuset dish I use the most: for sauteeing vegetables and potatoes, making soup or risotto), over medium heat, I heated up a couple of TB of olive oil and added 1 small thinly sliced onion and sauteed until soft, just a couple of minutes
- Then, I added the chopped tomatoes and corn, which I shaved off the cob, and sauteed for a couple of minutes
- I laid two filets of salmon (~1 lb total) on top of the tomatoes, corn and onions, seasoned with just a little olive oil, salt and pepper, and added 1/2 cup of white wine. On top of the salmon, I laid a couple of thin slices of lemon
- Baked in the oven for half an hour
- Served on a bed of spinach

Slow Roasted Salmon
Continuing on the seafood trend, since it is summer after all, I experimented with some wild alaskan salmon last night. I couldn't decide whether I should poach it, or pan fry it, or roast it in the oven, or bake it in foil, so I did none of the above. I decided to slow cook it in the oven based on a technique in serious eats, but with my own ingredients. Since I had two ears of corn and 4 roma tomatoes leftover from the previous week's meals, I decided to slow roast the salmon on top of tomatoes, corn and onions and serve it on a bed of fresh organic baby spinach for even more healthy veggieness.
