HERB-ENCRUSTED SALMON  ON LEMON CAPER CREAM SAUCE

Prep Time: 20 Minutes
Yields: 4 Servings

Comment:
Salmon was an important staple in the diet of many early Native American tribes.  It is an easy to prepare, flavorful fish.

Ingredients:
4 (4–6 ounce) salmon fillets
2 tbsps chopped tarragon
2 tbsps chopped thyme
2 tbsps chopped basil
½ cup olive oil
salt and cracked black pepper to taste
granulated garlic to taste
1½ cups flour
Lemon Caper Cream Sauce (see recipe)

Method:
Preheat oven to 275°F. In a 10-inch heavy-bottomed sauté pan, heat oil over medium-high heat. In a small bowl, combine herbs. Season fillets with salt, black pepper and granulated garlic then coat evenly with herb mixture. Coat with flour and shake off excess. Sauté 2 fillets at a time, 3–5 minutes on each side or until golden brown and crispy. Place cooked fish on a large cookie sheet in oven to keep warm while preparing the Lemon Caper Cream Sauce (see recipe).
