Ingredients:

  • 4 salmon fillets (about 6 oz each)
  • 2 tbsp olive oil

Instructions:

  1. Preheat the oven to 400°F.
  2. Place the salmon fillets in a baking dish lined with parchment paper.
  3. In a small bowl, whisk together the olive oil, lemon juice, garlic, dill, salt, and black pepper.
  4. Pour the marinade over the salmon fillets, making sure they are evenly coated.
  5. Bake the salmon for 12-15 minutes, or until the salmon is cooked through and flakes easily with a fork.
  6. Remove the salmon from the oven and let it rest for 5 minutes.
  7. Serve the salmon hot, garnished with lemon wedges and fresh parsley, if desired.

5 tips for making a delicious baked salmon:

  1. Choose fresh salmon: Fresh salmon tastes better than frozen salmon, so try to buy it fresh from a reputable fish market. Look for salmon that has bright, shiny skin and no visible blemishes.
  2. Use parchment paper: To prevent the salmon from sticking to the baking dish, line it with parchment paper. This will also make clean-up easier.
  3. Don’t overcook the salmon: Overcooking the salmon can make it dry and tough. Check the salmon after 12 minutes and remove it from the oven as soon as it starts to flake easily with a fork.
  4. Let the salmon rest: After removing the salmon from the oven, let it rest for a few minutes before serving. This will help the juices redistribute throughout the fish and make it more tender.
  5. Customize the marinade: You can easily customize the marinade to your liking. Try adding different herbs, such as thyme or rosemary, or using lime juice instead of lemon juice.

By following these tips, you can make a delicious baked salmon that is flavorful, moist, and perfectly cooked.
