Ingredients
- 1/4 cup unsalted butter
- 3 Tbsp minced fresh dill
- 4 (6 oz) skin-on salmon fillets (I recommend using thicker fillets)
- Salt and freshly ground black pepper
- 1 tsp minced garlic
- 1 Tbsp minced fresh parsley
- Lemon wedges or lemon zest, for serving
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 475 degrees.
- Place butter in small roasting dish, sprinkle dill evenly across. Place in oven and heat until butter has melted and dill is sizzling, about 4 - 5 minutes.
- Remove pan from oven and place fillets skin-side up. Return to oven and roast 4 minutes.
- Remove from oven and pull skin from salmon (if the skin doesn't pull away roast another 1 - 2 minutes).
- Season the now skinless side with salt and pepper then carefully flip fillets and season opposite side with salt and pepper. Sprinkle garlic into melted butter around salmon.
- Return to oven and cook to desired doneness, about 3 - 4 minutes longer.
- Plate salmon and spoon butter in pan over salmon. Sprinkle with parsley and serve warm with lemon zest or lemon wedges for spritzing.
