Preparation Steps

Step 1: Preheat the Oven

Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking dish with parchment paper or lightly grease it with olive oil.

Step 2: Prepare the Salmon

Pat the salmon fillets dry with a paper towel. Brush both sides with olive oil and season with salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and paprika if using. Drizzle with fresh lemon juice.

Step 3: Bake the Salmon

Place the fillets in the prepared baking dish, skin-side down if using skin-on fillets. Bake in the preheated oven for 12–15 minutes, or until the salmon flakes easily with a fork and reaches an internal temperature of 145°F (63°C).

Step 4: Garnish and Serve

Remove the salmon from the oven and garnish with fresh dill or parsley. Serve immediately with lemon wedges. Pair with roasted vegetables, rice, or a fresh salad for a complete meal.
