  • 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.

Tips:

  • Choose the right salmon fillet: Look for a piece of salmon that is about 1 inch thick and has a firm texture. Avoid fillets that are thin or have a lot of bones.
  • Season the salmon well: Salmon has a mild flavor, so it's important to season it well before baking. You can use a variety of seasonings, such as salt, pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, or lemon zest.
  • Use a baking sheet lined with parchment paper: This will help to prevent the salmon from sticking to the pan and make cleanup easier.
  • Bake the salmon 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.
  • Check the salmon for doneness: The salmon is done cooking when it flakes easily with a fork. It should also be cooked to an internal temperature of 145 degrees Fahrenheit.

Conclusion:

Baking salmon in the oven is a quick and easy way to prepare this delicious and healthy fish. By following these tips, you can ensure that your salmon turns out perfect every time. Serve the salmon with your favorite sides, such as roasted vegetables, mashed potatoes, or rice. Enjoy!
