Slow Baked Salmon with Grapefruit and Avocado Salsa
Bright and fresh, this seafood dish comes together fast and easily for a great weeknight meal. I like to serve this on a bed of greens. Feel free to vary the fish used here. Sole and tilapia work well.

Ingredients
- 1 pound salmon 2 filets with or without skin
- 1/2 cup grapefruit cut into supremes 1-2 grapefruits
- 1/2 cup avocado diced small
- 1/2 cup bell pepper diced small, omit for nightshade-free
- 1/2 shallot minced
- 1 tablespoon lime juice or rice vinegar
- 1/2 tablespoon cilantro minced, or parsley, or tarragon
- salt and pepper to taste
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 250ºF. Line a rimmed baking sheet with foil and then rub with a bit of avocado oil to prevent sticking. Lay the salmon on the prepared sheet and season to taste with salt and pepper. Bake at 250ºF for 20-35 minutes, or until the fish is just beginning to flake, or registers 120ºF inside. It will have a more raw appearance but be cooked at this point.
- While the fish bakes, prepare the salsa. Combine all remaining ingredients and stir to coat salsa evenly. Set aside.
- To serve, place salmon onto a bed of greens and top with reserved salsa.
