Ingredients

• 4 fillets (6 oz each) salmon fillets
• 2 tablespoons olive oil
• 2 tablespoons lemon juice
• 2 cloves garlic cloves, minced
• 2 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped
• 2 tablespoons fresh dill, chopped
• 0.5 teaspoons salt
• 0.25 teaspoons black pepper
• 4 wedges (for serving) lemon wedges

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease it with olive oil.

Step 2

Pat the salmon fillets dry with paper towels and place them on the prepared baking sheet, skin-side down (if the skin is intact).

Step 3

In a small bowl, whisk together the olive oil, lemon juice, minced garlic, chopped parsley, chopped dill, salt, and black pepper.

Step 4

Brush or spoon the herb mixture evenly over the salmon fillets. Be sure to coat the top and sides of each fillet thoroughly.

Step 5

Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the salmon is opaque and flakes easily with a fork. The internal temperature should reach 145°F (63°C).

Step 6

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

Step 7

Serve the herbed salmon fillets with lemon wedges on the side, and pair with your favorite sides like roasted vegetables, rice, or a fresh salad.
