Ingredients
- 2.31 pounds salmon (1 piece of whole salmon fillet)
- 1 tablespoon vegetable oil
- ½ teaspoon salt
- ½ teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon dried parsley
- 2 ticks fresh Rosemary (0.2 oz or 1 tablespoon)
Instructions
- Wrap a piece of foil on the tray.
- Rinse a whole salmon fillet (2.31 pounds), dry it with paper towels and lay on the tray with a foil.
- After that pour 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil on the salmon and use a brush to brush it even along the fillet.
- Next, sprinkle ½ teaspoon of salt (you can add more or less) and ½ teaspoon of garlic powder on the fillet.
- The following step, sprinkle 1 teaspoon of dried parsley.
- Then, sprinkle 2 sticks of fresh rosemary (1 tablespoon or 0.2 oz) on the top of the salmon fillet.
- Preheat the oven at 400F. Bake it at 400F for 8 minutes. Then, change it to broil and move the rack to the top. Broil it for 5 minutes or until it's a little bit golden brown. (The baking time depends on the size of the fillet. This whole salmon fillet is 2.31 pounds and I baked it for 8 minutes and broiled it for 5 minutes. If the fillet is 3 or 4 pounds, bake it for 10 -12 minutes. Then, broil it for 5 minutes.)
- Lastly, you can serve it with rice, roasted potatoes, asparagus or other vegetables that you like.
Notes
- Rinse the salmon fillet, lay on a tray with foil and use a paper towel to dry it.
- Then, brush vegetable oil on the salmon, sprinkle salt, garlic powder, dried parsley and fresh rosemary.
- Preheat the oven to 400F and bake at 400F for 8 minutes. Then, change it to broil and put the rack closer to the top and broil for 5 minutes or until it’s a little bit golden brown.
- The baking time depends on the size of the salmon. This salmon fillet is 2.31 pounds and I did 8 minutes baking and 5 minutes broiling.
- If the salmon fillet is 3 or 4 pounds, I suggest baking it for 10-12 minutes at 400 F and broiling for 5 minutes.
- Remember don’t over bake it, so the texture is not dry and hard. Baking temperature and time is crucial to make this baked whole salmon fillet juicy, tender and soft.
