Baking salmon is a simple yet delicious way to cook this healthy fish. Here are the basic steps:
- Preheat oven to 400°F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or aluminum foil.
- Pat the salmon fillets dry with a paper towel and season both sides with salt and pepper.
- Place the salmon fillets skin side down on the prepared baking sheet.
- Bake for 12-15 minutes, until the salmon is opaque and flakes easily with a fork. The exact cooking time will depend on the thickness of the fillets.
- Optional: Before serving, top the baked salmon with fresh herbs like dill or lemon slices.
Baked salmon is versatile and healthy. Enjoy it on its own or serve with rice, quinoa, or veggies for a complete meal.
