- 2 cloves garlic
- 1 teaspoon salt

Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or aluminum foil for easy cleanup.

In a small bowl, combine the olive oil, juice of half the lemon, minced garlic, salt, and black pepper. Mix well.
Step 4
Brush the olive oil mixture generously over each salmon fillet.
Step 5
Slice the remaining half of the lemon into thin rounds and place them on top of the salmon fillets.
Step 6
Sprinkle the chopped fresh dill evenly over the fillets.
Step 7
Bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until the salmon is cooked through and flakes easily with a fork.
Step 8
Remove from the oven and let the salmon rest for a couple of minutes before serving.
Step 9
Serve each fillet with additional fresh dill and a wedge of lemon, if desired.
