Delicious Lemon Herb Salmon

A simple, yet flavourful family meal. 

Ingredients:

  • 4-6 salmon filets, skin removed (about 2 lbs total)
  • ½  small white onion thinly sliced.
  • 2 tbsp extra virgin olive oil.
  • 1 tsp minced garlic (1 clove)
  • 2 lemons (thinly slice the one)
  • fresh ground black pepper
  • a pinch or two of sea salt and dried oregano.

Directions:

  1. Preheat oven to 400°F (204°C).
  2. Place salmon on an aluminum foil lined baking sheet. 
  3. In a small bowl mix the olive oil and garlic and generously brush each salmon filet with mixture.
  4. Spoon the juice from one lemon evenly onto each filet.
  5. Slice the onion and second lemon. Sprinkle the onion slices all over the filets and arrange 2 slices of lemon on top of each filet.
  6. Sprinkle sea salt, pepper and oregano evenly over all the filets. (No much is needed, just a couple pinches of each.)
  7. Bake for 18 minutes or until the salmon is just cooked through. (Don’t overcook or it will end up dry.)
  8. Serve and enjoy immediately after removing it from the oven.

 

Tip – Veggies are always delicious with salmon! Simply add broccoli florets, brussel sprouts, zucchini or asparagus to your baking sheet and season the same as the salmon . (You may need a little more olive oil and another lemon!)
