Ingredients
500g Salmon fillets
creole seasoning, Tony Chachere’s (I used Cajun, couldn’t get this.)
1/4 Cup white wine (I used a little more.)
250g Small shrimp, peeled ( I used Jumbo shrimp I love them)
2 Tablespoons butter
1 Bay leaf
1 Tablespoon fresh oregano or 1 teaspoon dried oregano
1 Teaspoon fresh rosemary or 1/2 teaspoon dried rosemary
1 Teaspoon peppercorns, crushed
1 Teaspoon garlic
2 Tablespoons plain flour
1 Cup chicken broth
2 Tablespoons lemon juice
Method
1. Place salmon in baking dish. Season generously with Tony Chachere’s Creole Seasoning. Add wine and bake in 180°C/350°F oven for 20 minutes.
2. While fish is baking, make sauce. Melt butter in a medium saucepan. Saute shrimp about 2 minutes. Add bay leaf, oregano, rosemary, pepper and garlic. Saute for about 1 minute.
3. Pour broth into a cup and stir in flour.
4. Pour this mixture slowly into pan. Add lemon juice and cook over medium heat until thickened, about 5 minutes.
I served mine over spinach topped with prawns and then topped with bacon wrapped asparagus, poured the sauce over and served wild rice on the side. Delicious!!!

Wonderful made this the other night, I have cooked salmon in pan or BBQ but never tried in oven this way it was delicious. I served it with couscous the sauce was easy to make went so well. I really like looking at you different recipe, thank you.
Thanks again Corine for another lovely comment. I am glad you enjoyed it, I am a huge couscous fan too.
thanks for the info, I used this as a base for a shrimp sauce toping for my grilled salmon..didnt use chicken broth or rosemary..but substituted italian seasoning and water instead. (thyme, rosemary, oregano, marjoram, basil.. it was amazing, whole family loved it.. thanks again
Thanks Jason for leaving such a nice comment I am so glad that you and your family liked it as much as us.
