Ingredients

4 (6 oz) salmon fillets, skin on or off
2 tablespoons olive oil
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 lemon, thinly sliced
2 tablespoons fresh dill, chopped
Salt and black pepper to taste

Instructions

Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Place salmon fillets on the prepared baking sheet, skin side down if skin-on.
In a small bowl, mix olive oil and minced garlic. Brush the mixture over the salmon fillets.
Season salmon with salt and black pepper. Top each fillet with lemon slices and sprinkle with fresh dill.
Bake for 15-18 minutes, until salmon is opaque and flakes easily with a fork.
Serve immediately, garnished with additional dill if desired.

Tips

For even cooking, make sure fillets are similar in thickness.
Leftover salmon can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days.
