Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 pieces salmon fillets
- 2 cups cherry tomatoes
- 0.5 cup kalamata olives
- 2 teaspoons fresh thyme
- 1 teaspoon fresh rosemary
- 3 tablespoons olive oil
- 3 cloves garlic
- 0.25 cup dry white wine
- 1 piece lemon
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
Pat the salmon fillets dry with a paper towel and season them with 1/2 teaspoon of salt and 1/4 teaspoon of black pepper.
In a large oven-safe skillet or baking dish, add the cherry tomatoes, kalamata olives, minced garlic, 2 tablespoons of olive oil, thyme, rosemary, and the remaining salt and pepper. Toss to combine.
Nestle the seasoned salmon fillets among the tomato and olive mixture in the dish.
Drizzle the remaining 1 tablespoon of olive oil over the salmon fillets.
Squeeze the juice of half the lemon over the entire dish, and slice the other half into thin rounds to place on top of the salmon for added flavor.
Pour the dry white wine around the edges of the dish to avoid washing the seasoning off the salmon.
Transfer the dish to the preheated oven and bake for 18-20 minutes, or until the salmon is cooked through and flakes easily with a fork.
Remove the dish from the oven and allow it to rest for 2-3 minutes before serving.
Serve each salmon fillet with a generous spoonful of the tomato and olive mixture, along with your favorite side like crusty bread or steamed vegetables.
