Ingredients
- 4 pieces salmon fillets
- 3 tablespoons olive oil

- 3 cloves garlic cloves, minced
- 2 teaspoons fresh rosemary, chopped
- 2 teaspoons fresh thyme, chopped
- 2 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon black pepper

Instructions
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or foil for easy cleanup.
Pat the salmon fillets dry with a paper towel and place them skin-side down on the prepared baking sheet.
In a small bowl, whisk together the olive oil, lemon juice, and minced garlic to create the marinade.
Using a silicone brush or spoon, spread the marinade evenly over the top and sides of the salmon fillets.
Sprinkle the chopped rosemary, thyme, and parsley evenly over the salmon. Season with salt and black pepper.
Place a lemon slice on top of each salmon fillet for added flavor.
Bake the salmon in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until the fish flakes easily with a fork. Cooking time may vary depending on the thickness of the fillets.
Remove the salmon from the oven and let it rest for 2 minutes before serving.
Serve the Herb Roasted Salmon with your favorite sides, such as roasted vegetables or a fresh salad, and enjoy!
