Low-Fat Baked Lemon Herb Salmon Recipe

Preheat Oven:

Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).

Prepare Salmon:

Pat the salmon fillets dry with a paper towel. Place them on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.

Season:

In a small bowl, mix together chopped fresh parsley, chopped fresh dill, minced garlic, olive oil, salt, and black pepper.

Coat Salmon:

Coat the salmon fillets with the herb mixture, ensuring they are well-covered.

Top with Lemon Slices:

Place thin lemon slices on top of each salmon fillet. This adds a burst of citrus flavor and helps keep the salmon moist.

Bake:

Bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes or until the salmon is cooked through and easily flakes with a fork.

Broil (Optional):

If you prefer a slightly crispy top, you can broil the salmon for an additional 2-3 minutes until the edges are golden brown.

Serve:

Transfer the baked lemon herb salmon to plates. Serve with lemon wedges on the side for an extra citrus kick.
