At first bite, White Wine Summer Salmon has a wonderfully floral flavour. But as you continue to enjoy the fish, you notice the lemon, fresh basil and roasted garlic. That’s one of the best things about this recipe – each ingredient truly adds to the overall flavour. With such a tasty mix of ingredients, my two-year-old daughter thinks that this dish is called, “Yummy Fish!”

Lemon and white wine wonderfully complement the naturally creamy flavour of the salmon. As the fillets bakes, the lemon and wine reduce, creating a simple sauce perfect for fish. The fresh basil enhances the summery taste while the garlic adds a burst of roasted flavour, making this a real crowd-pleasing dish.

When you bake White Wine Summer Salmon, you want to make it in a glass baking dish. This way, as the white wine and lemon juice reduce, you have a wonderful sauce to serve with the salmon. After about 10 minutes in the oven, the sauce and the fish will be ready to serve.

    Very close to my drunken salmon, but I use capers rather than garlic – more delicate, I think. Great minds think alike!
