Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 pieces Salmon fillets
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 1 large Lemon
- 2 cloves Garlic cloves
- 3 tablespoons Fresh dill
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 0.5 teaspoon Paprika
- 2 tablespoons Butter
Instructions
Preheat your oven to the broil setting (about 500°F) with the rack positioned about 6 inches from the heating element.
Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil and lightly grease it with olive oil or non-stick cooking spray.
Pat the salmon fillets dry with paper towels to remove any excess moisture and place them skin-side down on the prepared baking sheet.
Drizzle the olive oil over the salmon, making sure each fillet is evenly coated.
Zest the lemon, and then juice it. Reserve the juice and zest separately.
Mince the garlic cloves finely and combine them with the lemon zest, fresh dill, salt, black pepper, and paprika in a small bowl.
Sprinkle the dill mixture generously over the salmon fillets, pressing it gently to adhere.
Cut the butter into small pieces and place a few pieces on top of each fillet.
Place the baking sheet in the oven and broil the salmon for approximately 10-12 minutes, or until the fish is opaque and flakes easily with a fork. Keep a close eye to avoid overcooking.
Remove the salmon from the broiler and immediately drizzle the reserved lemon juice over the fillets for a burst of freshness.
Serve the broiled dill salmon hot, garnished with a sprig of fresh dill and an optional lemon wedge on the side for extra flavor.
