Ingredients
- 1/4 cup butter unsalted
- 3 Tbsp dill minced fresh
- 4 (6 oz) salmon fillets I recommend using thicker fillets, skin-on
- salt freshly ground
- black pepper freshly ground
- 1 tsp garlic minced
- 1 Tbsp parsley fresh, minced
- lemon for serving, wedges or zest
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.
