Garlic Salmon

Ingredients

• 2 salmon fillets (About 6 oz / 170 g each; boneless, skin-on or skinless)
• 3 cloves garlic (Minced)
• 1 tbsp olive oil (For coating the salmon and pan)
• 1 tbsp lemon juice (Freshly squeezed)
• salt (To taste)
• black pepper (To taste)
• 1 tbsp fresh parsley (Chopped, for garnish)

Steps

1. 1

   Pat the salmon fillets dry with paper towels. Season both sides with salt and black pepper.

2. 2

   Heat the olive oil in a large oven-safe skillet over medium heat. Place the salmon in the skillet and cook for 3 to 4 minutes, preferably skin-side down, until the underside is lightly browned.

3. 3

   Turn the salmon carefully. Add the minced garlic to the skillet around the fillets and cook for about 30 seconds, until fragrant, taking care not to let the garlic burn.

4. 4

   Transfer the skillet to an oven preheated to 400°F (200°C). Bake for 8 to 10 minutes, until the salmon flakes easily and reaches 145°F (63°C) in the thickest part.

5. 5

   Remove the skillet from the oven. Spoon the garlic oil over the salmon and drizzle with lemon juice.

6. 6

   Garnish with chopped parsley and serve immediately. Optional spinach, mentioned by a commenter, can be wilted in the skillet after the salmon is removed.
