Oven-Baked Lemon Garlic Salmon

Salmon is such a mild, flaky fish that my family loves, plus it's got healthy fats and is so good for you. So I try to make it as much as I can. And like you, I'm always looking for an easy way to make it that's delicious. Well this recipe delivers!

Here's the recipe:

• 1.5 pounds salmon fillet

• 1 TBS olive oil

• 3 cloves finely minced garlic (this tool makes it super easy!)

• Juice from 1/2 lemon (you can use bottled too)

• 1 TSP Italian seasoning

• 1/4 TSP salt

• black pepper to taste

• 2 TBS diced cold butter

Instructions

1. Preheat oven to 400° F (200° C). Line a rimmed baking sheet with foil.

2. Lightly coat the foil with olive oil. Place the salmon fillets on the foil, be sure not to overlap the fillets .

3. Drizzle each fillet with 1 tablespoon olive oil and cover with the minced garlic.

4. Drizzle the fillets with lemon juice and sprinkle with Italian seasoning, salt and pepper. Evenly place a few pieces of the butter on each fillet and cover the salmon with the foil.

5. Bake for 10-15 minutes (depending on the thickness of your fillet). Check after 10 minutes, if the fish is flaky, it's ready to eat!
