4 tablespoons flat leaf parsley, chopped
3 tablespoons fresh bread crumbs
4 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil

directions

Heat the oven to 400 degrees F.

With a mortar and pestle crush the garlic to a paste. In a small mixing bowl, combine the garlic, marjoram, parsley, breadcrumbs, olive oil, and salt. Grind in a little black pepper and stir until you have a paste.

Cut the fillet crosswise into four pieces, lightly grease a baking dish with about 2 Tsp. olive oil, arrange the fillets with at least 1 inch apart.

Bake the salmon for about 5 minutes, remove from the oven, spread the paste mixture over the fillets and bake the salmon for another 5-10 minutes.
