Instructions

• Step 1: Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). This temperature is perfect for achieving a beautifully cooked salmon with a slightly crispy exterior.
• Step 2: Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. This will help prevent the salmon from sticking and make cleanup a breeze.
• Step 3: In a small bowl, combine the olive oil, salt, and pepper. Use a cooking brush to apply the mixture generously over each salmon fillet. Make sure to coat both sides for maximum flavor.
• Step 4: Place the seasoned salmon fillets on the prepared baking sheet, skin-side down. Make sure they are spaced evenly apart to ensure even cooking.
• Step 5: Put the baking sheet in the preheated oven and bake the salmon for about 12-15 minutes. The salmon should be opaque and flake easily with a fork when done.
• Step 6: Once the salmon is cooked, remove it from the oven and let it rest for a couple of minutes. Serve it warm with your favorite sides, and enjoy!
