Description
Lemon garlic salmon roasted in butter. From Olivia at Flavors.
Ingredients
Scale
- 4 salmon fillets, about 6 ounces (170g) each
- 1 teaspoon kosher salt
- 1/2 teaspoon pepper
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 2 tablespoons butter
- 4 garlic cloves, minced
- 1 lemon, half juiced and half sliced
- 1 tablespoon chopped parsley or dill
Instructions
- Heat the oven to 400°F (200°C). Pat the salmon dry. Set it on a lined sheet pan and season with salt and pepper.
- Stir oil, melted butter, garlic, and lemon juice. Spoon over the fish. Lay lemon slices on top.
- Roast 12 to 15 minutes until the thickest part flakes and reaches about 125°F (52°C) for medium.
- Rest 3 minutes. Sprinkle with herbs.
Notes
Pull the fish while the center is still slightly translucent. It finishes as it rests. Skin-on fillets stay moister.
