**Salmon and Mushroom Bake**
**Ingredients:**
– 4 salmon fillets
– 2 cups of sliced mushrooms
– 1 small onion, diced
– 2 cloves of garlic, minced
– 1 tablespoon of olive oil
– 1/2 cup of white wine
– 1/4 cup of chicken broth
– 1/2 teaspoon of dried thyme
– Salt and pepper to taste
– Fresh parsley for garnish
**Instructions:**
1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and grease a baking dish with cooking spray.
2. In a skillet over medium heat, add the olive oil. Add the diced onion and minced garlic, and sauté until fragrant and translucent, about 2-3 minutes.
3. Add the sliced mushrooms to the skillet and cook until they are softened and any liquid they release has evaporated, about 5-7 minutes.
4. Stir in the white wine and chicken broth, and let the mixture simmer for another 5 minutes to allow the flavors to meld together. Season with dried thyme, salt, and pepper.
5. Place the salmon fillets in the greased baking dish and season them with salt and pepper. Spoon the mushroom mixture over the salmon fillets, ensuring they are evenly covered.
6. Cover the baking dish with foil and bake in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes, or until the salmon is cooked through and flakes easily with a fork.
7. Remove the foil and broil the dish for an additional 2-3 minutes to allow the top to brown slightly.
8. Once done, remove from the oven and garnish with fresh parsley for a pop of color and freshness.
9. Serve the Salmon and Mushroom Bake hot, accompanied by your favorite side dishes such as roasted vegetables, mashed potatoes, or a simple green salad.
