Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 pieces Salmon fillets
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 2 tablespoons Lemon juice
- 3 Garlic cloves, minced
- 1 teaspoon Black pepper
- 1 teaspoon Dried oregano
- 1 teaspoon Dried thyme
- 1 teaspoon Dried dill
- 1 teaspoon Lemon zest
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper or foil for easy cleanup.
In a small bowl, whisk together the olive oil, lemon juice, and minced garlic to create the marinade.
Pat dry the salmon fillets with paper towels and place them skin-side down on the prepared baking sheet.
Brush the marinade evenly over the tops and sides of the salmon fillets.
In another small bowl, combine the black pepper, dried oregano, dried thyme, dried dill, and lemon zest.
Sprinkle the herb mixture generously over the salmon fillets, pressing lightly to adhere the seasoning.
Let the seasoned salmon sit at room temperature for 10 minutes to absorb the flavors.
Bake the salmon in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes, or until the salmon flakes easily with a fork and is cooked through.
Remove the salmon from the oven and let it rest for a couple of minutes before serving.
Serve the baked salmon with your choice of vegetables or a fresh salad for a delightful low sodium meal.
