BAKED MUSTARD-CRUSTED SALMON WITH ASPARAGUS AND TARRAGON

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 275°F. Line a rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper. Toss asparagus with 2 Tbsp. oil, 1/2 tsp. salt, and 1/4 tsp. pepper on prepared sheet, then arrange in a single layer on one half of baking sheet. Bake asparagus 5 minutes.
• Meanwhile, spread each salmon fillet with 2 tsp. mustard. Sprinkle fillets with 1/4 tsp. salt and 1/4 tsp. pepper total. Toss panko with remaining 1 Tbsp. oil in a small bowl. Sprinkle panko mixture evenly onto salmon fillets, then dust with smoked paprika.
• After asparagus has baked for 5 minutes, remove baking sheet from oven. Place prepared salmon fillets skin side down on empty half of baking sheet. Return to oven and bake until salmon is firm but still pink in the center and asparagus is tender, 14-16 minutes more for medium rare salmon. Divide salmon and asparagus among four plates and top with tarragon.

SLOW-BAKED SALMON WITH LEMON AND THYME

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 275°F. Line a rimmed baking sheet with aluminum foil. Brush with 1/2 tablespoon oil. Place salmon fillets, skin side down, on prepared baking sheet. Mix remaining oil, thyme, and lemon zest in a small bowl. Spread thyme mixture over salmon fillets, dividing equally. Season with salt and pepper. Let stand 10 minutes to allow flavors to meld.
• Bake salmon until just opaque in center, 15-18 minutes. Serve with lemon wedges.

BAKED SALMON IN FOIL

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
• Combine 1/2 cup olive oil, lemon juice, garlic, brown sugar, oregano, thyme, salt, and pepper in a bowl.
• Place a large piece of aluminum foil on a baking sheet and brush with olive oil. Place salmon in the middle of the foil, skin-side down. Drizzle with olive oil mixture. Fold up the edges of the foil over the salmon to create a packet, making sure to seal the edges.
• Bake in the preheated oven until fish flakes easily with a fork, 20 to 25 minutes. If your salmon fillet is very thick, it can take longer. Garnish with fresh parsley and lemon slices.
