Ingredients
- 2 kg (4lb) side of salmon (I always ask the fishmonger to pin-bone the fish for me but to leave the skin on)
- ½ cup butter softened
- 4 garlic cloves minced
- 2 tbsp fresh dill finely chopped
- 1 tbsp parsley finely chopped
- 1 tbsp thyme finely chopped
- 2 tsp lemon zest
- 2 tsp salt
- 1 tsp pepper
- Lemon wedges to serve
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 400°F/205°C.
- Combine the softened butter with minced garlic, finely chopped herbs, lemon zest, salt and pepper.
- Dry the surface of the salmon with paper towels. The butter won't stick to the salmon if the surface isn't dried well.
- Spread the butter all over the flesh-side of the salmon then transfer to a baking sheet or roasting pan lined with parchment paper.
- Place the salmon into a hot oven and bake for 10-15 minutes or until the salmon is done to your preference.
- Remove the salmon from the oven then allow to rest for 5 minutes.
- Slice and serve drizzled with the butter and lemon juice.
