OVEN-BAKED SALMON RECIPE
Ingredients
4 salmon fillets (6 oz each)
2 tbsp olive oil
2 tbsp fresh lemon juice
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 tsp paprika
1 tsp dried parsley (or 1 tbsp fresh parsley, chopped)
Salt and pepper, to taste
Lemon wedges (for serving)
Instructions
Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease it.
Prepare the Salmon: Place the salmon fillets skin-side down on the prepared baking sheet. Pat them dry with a paper towel.
Make the Marinade: In a small bowl, mix olive oil, lemon juice, garlic, paprika, parsley, salt, and pepper.
Season the Salmon: Brush the marinade evenly over the salmon fillets, ensuring they are fully coated.
Bake: Place the salmon in the preheated oven and bake for 12-15 minutes, or until the salmon flakes easily with a fork. Cooking time may vary depending on the thickness of the fillets.
Serve: Remove the salmon from the oven and serve immediately with lemon wedges on the side. Enjoy!
