Ingredients

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking dish with aluminum foil and lightly grease it with cooking spray to prevent sticking.

  2. Place the salmon fillets in the prepared baking dish, skin-side down. Season each fillet with salt, pepper, and dried dill, evenly coating both sides.

  3. In a small bowl, combine the olive oil and minced garlic. Drizzle this mixture over the salmon fillets, ensuring they are well coated.

  4. Arrange the lemon slices on top of the salmon fillets, covering each piece completely.

  5. Cover the baking dish with foil, sealing it tightly to create a steamy environment for the salmon to cook in.

  6. Bake the salmon in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until the fish is cooked through and flakes easily with a fork.

  7. Once the salmon is done, remove it from the oven and carefully uncover the baking dish. Sprinkle the fresh parsley over the salmon for a pop of color and freshness.

  8. Serve the Easy Salmon For Two hot, with your favorite side dishes such as roasted vegetables, a simple salad, or crusty bread to soak up the flavorful juices.
