This recipe offers a delightful twist on baked salmon, combining it with a rich and creamy tomato basil sauce for a flavorful and satisfying dish.
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
Ensure your oven is fully preheated for even cooking.
In a sauté pan, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and minced garlic, cooking until the onion becomes translucent.
Stir frequently to prevent the garlic from burning.
Add the diced tomatoes to the pan and cook on high heat until they start to break down, about 5-7 minutes.
Use a wooden spoon to gently mash the tomatoes as they cook.
Reduce the heat to medium-low and stir in the cream, dried basil, salt, and pepper. Simmer for 5 minutes.
Taste the sauce and adjust the seasoning as needed.
Place the salmon fillets in an oiled baking dish. Pour the prepared cream sauce over the salmon, ensuring they are well coated.
Arrange the salmon fillets in a single layer for even cooking.
Cover the dish with foil and bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until the salmon is cooked through.
Check the salmon for doneness by flaking it with a fork.
Garnish with fresh basil leaves and serve over your choice of pasta, rice, or steamed vegetables.
For an elegant presentation, sprinkle some grated Parmesan cheese on top.
