Description
This flavorful rosemary salmon is an easy and elegant dish, perfect for any occasion.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 lbs Salmon (whole piece with skin on or off, either works)
- 4 sprigs fresh rosemary (divided)
- 2 lemons
- 1 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon pepper
- 3 garlic cloves (minced or 1 tablespoon minced garlic)
Instructions
- Remove the salmon from the fridge and let it sit at room temperature for about 10 minutes.
- Preheat the oven to 375°F. Line a large baking dish or rimmed baking sheet with foil and lightly spray with nonstick cooking spray.
- Place 2 sprigs of rosemary in the center of the foil. Slice one lemon and layer half of the slices over the rosemary. Place the salmon on top.
- Drizzle with olive oil and season with salt and pepper. Rub to coat, then sprinkle the garlic over the salmon.
- Chop the remaining 2 rosemary springs. Sprinkle on top of the salmon. Then place the remaining lemon slices on top.
- Place another sheet of foil over the pan and fold it around the pan to make a tent over the salmon.
- Bake for 15–20 minutes, depending on thickness, until the salmon is almost cooked through.
- Carefully open the foil (watch the steam), switch the oven to broil, and cook for 2–3 minutes until the top is lightly golden and the salmon flakes easily with a fork.
- Juice the second lemon and pour it over the fish.
- Slice and serve with extra lemon if desired. Enjoy!
