Lemon Salt Salmon
This is my super-easy recipe for Lemon Salt Salmon, which is always a hit when I make it for friends. If you’re someone who is intimidated by cooking seafood, this recipe is one to try. It’s low on intimidation and high on flavor.
Ingredients
Instructions
- Step 1
Preheat oven to 425 degrees F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Step 2
Use a zester to zest two lemons into a small bowl. Add in an equal amount of flaked sea salt, so you have a 50/50 mix of zest and salt. Using your fingers, mix together the two ingredients to continue to release the lemon oil into the salt.
- Step 3
Place your salmon filet on the parchment-lined baking sheet. Rub the lemon salt onto the top of the filet and press it around to coat the entire top side of the fish.
- Step 4
Add cracked black pepper to the filet and carefully drizzle about 2 tablespoons of olive oil onto the salmon. Be careful not to over oil the fish and wash away the lemon salt. You just want enough to help create a bit of a crust.
- Step 5
Place salmon in the preheated oven for 15 to 17 minutes, or until fish is flaky.
