Defrost your salmon fillets are place them onto a bake sheet. Following the instructions from the bag you bought the salmon preheat the oven at the temperature suggested. While the ove is preheating take out your spices and a pinch or two of each. Pinches in this case is your index middle fingers and thumb, after doing so take your index finger and lightly rub the seasoning into the fillets, make sure to be careful to not rip the fillets. After finishing one side flip the fillet over and repeat the process. Bake as long as suggested for the size of fillets on the container or butcher’s suggestion and enjoy. For extra flavor take an eighth an oz of lime or lemon juice on each fillet. Do not do if you dislike either flavor.

End price

Salmon: Varies but frozen fillets are around $4-$6 depending on the area, store and season.

Spices: All together you are looking at around ten dollars for cayenne pepper, lemon pepper and Ms.Dash Chicken blend. However you’ll have the bottles of spices for months.

Lasting Value

 Two fillets a day: Three to Four days for one person

One fillet per plate: Up to six or seven people, depends on bag.

Final comments: Two good side dishes with this meal are mashed potatoes or a small to medium sized chef salad to help the meal be more filling. A bag of instant mix mash potatoes should only cost a dollar. Due to the high amount of pepper the spices may be too spicy for some people, however a simple fix is to use only half as much cayenne pepper as lemon pepper used
