- Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- In a small bowl, combine the olive oil, lemon juice, minced garlic, dried dill, dried thyme, Kosher salt, and black pepper. Mix well to create a flavorful marinade.
- Place the salmon filets on the prepared baking sheet, skin-side down. Spoon the marinade evenly over each filet, ensuring they are fully coated. Let them marinate for 10 minutes, allowing the flavors to infuse.
- Once marinated, transfer the baking sheet to the preheated oven. Bake for about 12-15 minutes or until the salmon is cooked through and flakes easily with a fork. Cooking time may vary depending on the thickness of the filets.
- Remove the salmon from the oven and let it rest for a few minutes before serving. This allows the flavors to meld together and the salmon to retain its juiciness.
- Serve the salmon filets hot, garnished with fresh dill sprigs and accompanied by lemon wedges for an extra zing. Pair it with your favorite side dishes or a vibrant salad for a complete and nutritious meal.
Tips
- When purchasing salmon, look for wild-caught varieties for optimal flavor and sustainability.
