Preparation
  1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
  2. Rinse the wild-caught salmon filet under cold water and pat it dry with paper towels.
  3. Place the salmon on a lined baking sheet, skin side down. Season generously with Kosher salt and freshly cracked black pepper.

  5. Brush the garlic dill mixture evenly over the top of the salmon.
Cooking

Notes

Great for families and easy to clean up afterwards. Serve with a garden salad or roasted veggies for a complete meal. For an extra zing, squeeze more lemon juice over the salmon before serving.
