Baked Salmon

Ingredients:

     1 whole Alaska Salmon, about 6 lbs, cleaned
     freshly ground Pepper
     1 medium Onion, thinly sliced
     1 Lemon, thinly sliced
     4 to 5 sprigs Parsley
     1 tsp dried Thyme, or 5 sprigs fresh thyme
     1 Tbsp Olive Oil

Directions:

Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Rinse the salmon inside out and pat it dry. Sprinkle the inside with salt and pepper, and stuff it with half of the onion, half of the lemon, and all of the parsley. Tear off a sheet of aluminum foil large enough to wrap the salmon. Place the salmon on the foil and sprinkle with salt, pepper, and thyme. Rub with olive oil. Scatter the remaining onion and lemon slices on top and seal foil tightly. Place on a cookie sheet and bake 40 to 45 minutes. Cool in the foil on a rack. Remove onion and lemon, and skin if desired. Serve baked salmon at room temperature. Serves 6 to 8 people.
