Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 pieces salmon fillets
- 1 whole lemon
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 2 tablespoons fresh dill
- 2 tablespoons fresh parsley
- 1 tablespoon fresh thyme
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon ground black pepper
- 4 slices lemon slices
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Rinse the salmon fillets under cold water and pat them dry with paper towels.
Zest the lemon and then juice it into a small bowl. Reserve the lemon zest for later use.
In a small bowl, combine the lemon juice, olive oil, fresh dill, fresh parsley, fresh thyme, garlic powder, salt, and ground black pepper to create the marinade.
Place the salmon fillets on the prepared baking sheet. Spoon the marinade evenly over each fillet, ensuring they are well coated.
Place a lemon slice on top of each salmon fillet for extra flavor.
Sprinkle the reserved lemon zest over the salmon fillets.
Bake the salmon in the preheated oven for 18-20 minutes or until the salmon flakes easily with a fork.
Remove from the oven and let it rest for a few minutes before serving.
Serve the baked salmon warm with a side of your choice, such as roasted vegetables or a fresh salad.
