Notes
- Pat the salmon dry before seasoning. If the salmon is too wet it will steam rather than bake and it can result in a mushy texture.
- Cooking times may vary depending on the thickness of your salmon fillets.
- The salmon is cooked through when the flesh is pink and opaque and it flakes easily with a fork. The internal temperature in the thickest part of the filet should be 125 F.
