Super Simple Salmon
Let’s reel in the ingredients and get cooking. Don’t worry, we won’t be fishing for compliments; you’ll get plenty just for serving this dish!
Ingredients:
- 2 salmon fillets (the star of our show)
- 2 tablespoons olive oil (because we like things slippery)
- 1 lemon (for that zesty kick)
- 2 cloves garlic, minced (guaranteed to keep vampires away)
- Salt and pepper to taste (season it like you mean it)
- Fresh herbs for garnish (optional, but who doesn’t want a fancy touch?)
Instructions:
- Start by preheating your oven to 400°F (the perfect temperature to make your salmon sizzle!).
- In a bowl, mix together the olive oil, minced garlic, salt, and pepper. This is your magical potion.
- Place the salmon fillets on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Pour the garlic and olive oil mixture over the fillets, spreading it evenly like you just discovered the perfect toast spread.
- Slice the lemon and place the slices on top of the salmon. Don’t be stingy! We want that citrus goodness to soak into every bite.
- Pop that baking sheet in the oven for about 12-15 minutes, or until the salmon flakes easily with a fork. You can use this time to practice your best “I made this!” smirk in the mirror.
- Once it’s done, take the salmon out of the oven and let it rest for a minute before serving. Garnish with fresh herbs if you wanna show off.
And there you have it! A meal so simple that you can almost do it with your eyes closed (please don’t actually try that, safety first!). Serve it with a side of veggies or your favorite grains, and watch your friends and family devour it like they’ve never seen food before. Enjoy your culinary triumph!
