Equipment

  • Shallow Baking Dish
  • Aluminum Foil
  • Oven

Ingredients

  • 2 salmon fillets about 4oz each
  • 1 tablespoon fresh chopped thyme
  • 1 tablespoon fresh chopped rosemary
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground pepper
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon olive oil
  • lemon wedges

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 425 degrees F
  • Line a shallow baking dish with aluminum foil and spray with a little cooking spray.
  • Place salmon fillets skin down in dish.
  • Drizzle olive oil on salmon and spread it out well so both fillets are lightly coated.
  • Gently rub salt and pepper onto salmon fillets and then add rosemary and thyme.
  • Salmon cooks in 5 minutes per 1/2 inch of thickness. So your total cooking time will depend on the thickness of the salmon fillets. It's likely to be 5-8 minutes total. Fish will flake with a fork when done.
  • Remove from oven, spritz with a little lemon and serve immediately.
