Ingredients
- 1 ½ - 2 pounds wild caught salmon
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- ¼ cup melted butter
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- 1 tablespoon chopped parsley
- 1 teaspoon chopped dill
- 1 clove garlic minced
- salt and pepper
Instructions
- Set the oven on broil and move the top rack down about 6 inches from the heat source. Cut the salmon fillet into individual portions. And place on a rimmed baking sheet.
- Brush olive oil over the top of each portion. Then salt and pepper generously.
- Broil for 5-8 minutes, depending on the thickness of the salmon. (It’s better to undercook the salmon a little, rather than overcook.)
- Meanwhile, mix the melted butter, lemon juice, parsley, dill, and garlic.
- Once the salmon comes out of the oven, brush the tops with the herb butter, then serve warm.
