Fish was never anything we had growing up. My mom claims thats because we would only eat it deep fried (and she's a heath nut so that was out) but I think it was because it wasn't something she grew up eating much of and did not feel comfortable preparing it for her family. When I met HusbandPlzak my fish and seafood horizons were expanded and I realized not only do I like fish a lot but I LOVE salmon. Unfortunately he does not share my same love of this particular speciese and thus I rarely prepare it at home. But enough is enough I found this recipe and figured it was so quick and easy that I could make salmon for me and cod or tilapia for him. Win-Win.
Meal: I served this with broiled tomatoes and mashed potatoes.
Adapted from Real SImple September 2008
2 Salmon fillets
2 ripe vine tomatoes, cut in half
1/4 tsp paprika
1 tbsp olive oil
Salt and pepper
4 springs fresh thyme
3 cloves garlic sliced
Heat broiler on high. Place salmon on baking sheet and sprinkle with paprika. Place tomatoes on pan and drizzle both with olive oil and season with salt and pepper. Scatter thyme and garlic over tops of salmon and tomatoes.
Broil until salmon is flakey and tomatoes are tender, 8-10 minutes.

I love to broil salmon! And my husband is the same as yours in that he doesnt LOVE salmon as much as I do - I have tried a few different recipes for him and he has grown to like it!
I'll take salmon in any type of preparation - looks delicious!
