Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 pieces salmon fillets
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 2 tablespoons fresh dill, chopped
- 1 teaspoon sea salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
- 4 slices lemon slices
Instructions
Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Place the salmon fillets on the prepared baking sheet, skin side down.
In a small bowl, mix together the olive oil, lemon juice, minced garlic, chopped fresh dill, sea salt, and black pepper.
Drizzle the olive oil and lemon juice mixture evenly over the salmon fillets, ensuring they are well-coated.
Place one lemon slice on each salmon fillet for added citrus flavor.
Let the salmon marinate at room temperature for about 5 minutes, allowing the flavors to infuse.
Bake the salmon in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until the salmon is opaque and flakes easily with a fork.
Once cooked, remove the salmon from the oven and let it rest for a few minutes before serving.
Serve the Whole30 salted salmon warm with your choice of Whole30-compliant side dishes, such as steamed vegetables or a fresh salad.
