Ingredients
- 6 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- 1 tablespoon chopped fresh parsley
- 2 teaspoons minced garlic
- 1 teaspoon dried basil
- 1 teaspoon garlic salt with parsley flakes
- 1 teaspoon pepper
- 2 (6-ounce) salmon fillets
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Lightly grease a baking dish and set aside.
- In a medium bowl mix olive oil, lemon juice, parsley, garlic, basil, garlic salt and pepper to create a marinade.
- Place salmon fillets in a greased baking dish. Pour marinade over the salmon and turn to coat all sides, then place salmon skin side down.
- Bake uncovered for 35 minutes, until salmon flakes easily with a fork. Serve immediately.
Notes
- Salmon Skin: Unless you are poaching salmon, you should always leave the skin on during cooking to protect the bottom of the salmon from overcooking. The skin will slide right off of a cooked fillet.
- Doneness Guide: Perfectly cooked salmon will be opaque on the outside, and in the center, the meat should easily separate and look translucent pink. If the meat does not separate well and the fish looks completely translucent, the salmon is undercooked. Overcooked fish will flake and look opaque all the way through. Also, as the fish cooks it will begin to develop a white film on top; overcooked salmon will have a lot of this film.
