Lemon Rosemary Salmon Recipe - Delicious Nordic Dish

Ingredients

Servings:
8
  • 4 fillets salmon (skin-on for extra flavor)
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil (extra virgin preferred)
  • 1 lemon juice and zest (freshly squeezed for best flavor)
  • 2 tablespoons fresh rosemary (chopped)
  • 1 teaspoon salt (to taste)
  • 1 teaspoon black pepper (freshly ground)

Instructions

5 steps

  1. Preheat the Oven

    Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).

    This ensures even cooking.
  2. Prepare the Marinade

    In a bowl, mix olive oil, lemon juice, lemon zest, chopped rosemary, salt, and black pepper.

    Whisk until well combined.
  3. Marinate the Salmon

    Place salmon fillets in a baking dish and pour the marinade over them. Let sit for 15 minutes.

    This enhances the flavor.
  4. Bake the Salmon

    Transfer the baking dish to the preheated oven and bake for 12-15 minutes or until salmon is cooked through.

    Salmon should flake easily with a fork.
  5. Serve

    Remove from oven and let rest for a few minutes before serving.

    Garnish with additional rosemary if desired.
