Ingredients
- 2 pieces salmon or 1 larger piece totaling about 1 pound
- olive oil
- garlic powder
- salt to taste
- black pepper to taste
Cucumber salsa:
- 3 cucumber chopped, Persian
- mint chopped finely, small handful, fresh
- 1/4 teaspoon za'atar or more to taste
- 1 teaspoon olive oil
- 1 teaspoon lemon juice
- salt
- black pepper
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 375F and move the rack to the top third of the oven. Line a baking sheet with foil for easy clean-up.
- Lightly coat the salmon in some olive oil, and then gently sprinkle on a bit of garlic powder and salt & pepper. Bake until it's cooked through (check after 8-10 minutes for a thinner piece of salmon)... a good rule of thumb is about 5 minutes baking time per half inch of thickness.
- Meanwhile, combine all the cucumber salsa ingredients in a bowl and refrigerate until needed.
- Once the fish is done, serve it with the cucumber salsa on the side. This dish is also very tasty when the salmon is cooked then chilled for a few hours.
