Paleo Baked Salmon

Serves 4

Ingredients:

• 4 salmon fillets
• 3 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
• 3 cloves garlic, minced
• 1 lemon (zest and juice)
• 2 tbsp fresh dill, chopped
• Sea salt and black pepper, to taste

Method:

1. Preheat the oven to 400°F and line a baking tray with parchment paper.
2. Pat the salmon fillets dry and place them skin-side down on the tray.
3. In a small bowl, whisk together the olive oil, minced garlic, lemon zest, and lemon juice, then spoon this mixture evenly over each fillet. Sprinkle with the chopped dill and season generously with sea salt and pepper.
4. Bake for 12–15 minutes, until the salmon flakes easily with a fork and is opaque throughout (thicker fillets may need a couple of extra minutes).
5. Let it rest for a minute before serving, with any pan juices spooned back over the top.
