Dianne's Fish Seasoning
I came up with this fish seasoning recipe because I wanted a really easy way to fix fish. Just mix it up and store in an airtight container in your pantry, then season your fish and bake or grill as desired. I like to mix it with a little olive oil and spread it over salmon fillets before baking them in the oven. This blend of herbs goes really well with fish, but it doesn't overpower it.
