Tips:
- Choose the right salmon fillets. Look for fillets that are firm to the touch, have a vibrant color, and are free of any blemishes or discoloration.
- Season the salmon fillets well. A simple combination of salt, pepper, and lemon juice is all you need to bring out the natural flavor of the salmon.
- Use a high-quality olive oil. Olive oil will help to keep the salmon moist and prevent it from sticking to the baking sheet.
- Don't overcrowd the baking sheet. Make sure there is enough space between the salmon fillets so that they cook evenly.
- Bake the salmon fillets at a high temperature. This will help to create a crispy crust on the outside of the salmon while keeping the inside moist and flaky.
- Don't overcook the salmon fillets. The best way to tell if the salmon is cooked through is to insert a fork into the thickest part of the fillet. If the fork comes out easily, the salmon is done.
Conclusion:
Baked salmon fillets are a delicious and healthy meal that can be easily prepared at home. By following these tips, you can ensure that your salmon fillets turn out perfectly cooked every time.
