Making Lemon Baked Salmon With Garlic Dill Sauce is an exciting process that you can accomplish with ease. Follow these simple steps to create a delicious dish:
1. Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) to ensure it reaches the right temperature for baking.
2. Prepare the Baking Dish: Lightly grease a baking dish with olive oil or line it with parchment paper for easier cleanup.
3. Mix Marinade: In a small bowl, combine olive oil, lemon juice, minced garlic, chopped dill, salt, and pepper. Stir well to create a marinade.
4. Coat the Salmon: Place salmon fillets in the prepared baking dish. Brush the garlic dill marinade over each fillet, ensuring an even coating.
5. Add Lemon Slices: Layer lemon slices on top of the salmon fillets for added flavor and visual appeal.
6. Bake: Place the baking dish in the preheated oven and bake for 15-20 minutes, or until the salmon is cooked through and flakes easily with a fork.
