Lemon Herb Roasted Salmon

30 minutes | Yield: 2-3 servings

This simple recipe allows the salmon’s natural sweetness to shine through, enhanced by the bright citrus notes of lemon and the fragrant aroma of fresh herbs

Ingredients

  • 1 whole Atlantic salmon filet (1-1/2 to 2 pounds), cleaned and scaled as necessary (Alternates may include, branzino, sea bass, or cod)
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • Salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste
  • 1 lemon, thinly sliced
  • 1 Bay Leaf
  • 1 package Soli Organic Seafood Blend or…..
  • 2 TBS chopped fresh Soli Organic Dill
  • 2 TBS chopped fresh Soli Organic Parsley
  • 4 sprigs fresh Soli Organic Thyme

Directions

  1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (205°C).
  2. Prep the Fish: Pat the fish dry with paper towels—season lightly with salt and pepper.
  3. Place the fish on a lightly oiled baking dish (parchment paper works well too).
  4. Season: Arrange the lemon slices, chopped rosemary sprigs, thyme sprigs, oregano sprigs, and a whole bay leaf.
  5. Roast: Drizzle the fish with olive oil. Roast for 20-25 minutes or until the fish flakes easily with a fork and reaches an internal temperature of 145°F (63°C).
  6. Serve: Carefully transfer the fish to a serving platter. Garnish with fresh herbs (optional) and lemon wedges. Serve immediately with your favorite sides, like roasted vegetables or rice.
  • If your fish is thin, you can adjust the cooking time accordingly. Start checking for doneness after 15 minutes of total cooking time.
  • Leftovers can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days.
