Ingredients
4 salmon fillets (6 oz each)
4 fresh rosemary sprigs
2 lemons, thinly sliced
2 tablespoons olive oil
4 cloves garlic, minced
1 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon black pepper
Instructions
Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C)
Line a baking sheet with parchment paper
Place salmon fillets on the sheet, skin-side down
Drizzle olive oil over each fillet
Sprinkle minced garlic, salt, and black pepper evenly over the top
Place fresh rosemary sprigs and lemon slices on top of each fillet
Bake for 15-18 minutes, or until the salmon is opaque and flakes easily with a fork
Notes
Ensure the salmon is fresh and of even thickness for consistent cooking.
For added flavor, marinate the salmon in olive oil, garlic, and rosemary for 20-30 minutes before baking.
Use sustainably sourced salmon when possible.
