Ingredients
1/2 cup / 125 g | Naturegg Simply Egg Whites liquid egg whites, well shaken |
1/4 cup / 50 ml | light mayonnaise |
1 tbsp / 15 ml | each lemon juice and chopped fresh chives |
2 tsp / 10 ml | Dijon mustard |
1/2 tsp / 2 ml | each salt and pepper, divided |
8 | boneless, skinless salmon fillets (about 5 oz / 150 g each) |
Directions
Preheat the oven to 425°F (220°C). Whip the egg whites using an electric mixer on high until soft peaks form. Stir the mayonnaise with the lemon juice, chives, mustard and half of each the salt and pepper in a separate bowl until well combined. Gently, fold the whipped egg whites into the mayonnaise mixture until just combined.
Place the salmon on a parchment-lined baking sheet; season all over with remaining salt and pepper. Spread an equal amount of the egg white mixture over each salmon fillet. Bake for 7 to 9 minutes or until salmon flakes lightly when tested with a fork and the topping is puffed and golden. Makes 8 servings.

When whipping eggs, start with a low speed and then gradually work up to the whip setting on the mixer. The lower speed stretches the protein molecules and makes the mixture more readily accept air.
