Instructions
Remove the 6 salmon fillets from the refrigerator and let them rest at room temperature for 20 minutes while you preheat the oven to 425°F (place the oven rack in the center position).
Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Arrange the 6 fillets on the parchment-lined baking sheet, spacing them so air can circulate between each piece.
Drizzle 1 tablespoon olive oil evenly over the tops of the fillets.
Evenly sprinkle the minced garlic (2 garlic cloves), chopped fresh rosemary (1-1/2 tablespoons), sea salt (1 teaspoon), and fresh ground black pepper (1/2 teaspoon) over the tops of the fillets.
Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and bake for 10 to 12 minutes, or until the salmon flakes easily with a fork.
Remove from the oven and serve hot, with fresh lemon wedges for squeezing over the top if desired.
