Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).

In the bowl, add olive oil, finely chopped fresh dill, finely chopped fresh parsley, minced garlic cloves, salt, and black pepper. Mix well to combine.
Step 7
Brush or spoon the lemon herb mixture evenly over the salmon fillets.
Step 8
Place one lemon slice on top of each salmon fillet for extra flavor and presentation.
Step 9
Bake in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes, or until the salmon is cooked through and flakes easily with a fork.

Remove from the oven and let the salmon rest for a couple of minutes before serving.
Step 11
Serve hot with your choice of sides, such as a fresh salad or steamed vegetables, for a complete meal.
