    How to bake juicy salmon fillet in the oven? Prepare the products. I cooked frozen fillets, but you can take fresh fish. If necessary, defrost the fish on the bottom shelf of the refrigerator.

    Peel the onions and carrots. Finely chop. So that when slicing onion juice does not irritate the mucous membrane of the eyes so much, rinse the onion and knife under running cold water.
