• 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
• 4 pieces lemon slices
• 2 tablespoons fresh parsley

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking dish with parchment paper or lightly oil it to prevent sticking.

Pat the salmon fillets dry with a paper towel and arrange them skin-side down in the prepared baking dish.

Step 3

In a small mixing bowl, whisk together olive oil, minced garlic, lemon juice, dried oregano, dried thyme, paprika, salt, and black pepper.

Step 4

Brush the olive oil mixture generously over the top of each salmon fillet to coat them evenly.

Step 5

Place a lemon slice on top of each salmon fillet for added brightness and flavor.

Step 6

Bake the salmon in the preheated oven for 18-20 minutes or until the salmon flakes easily with a fork and reaches an internal temperature of 145°F (63°C).

Step 7

Remove the baking dish from the oven and let the salmon rest for 2-3 minutes.

Step 8

Garnish with freshly chopped parsley before serving.

Step 9

Serve warm with your favorite side dishes such as roasted vegetables, rice, or a green salad.
