Garlic Butter Lemon Salmon
Ingredients:
- 1 ¼ pound salmon
- 2 tablespoons lemon juice
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 3 tablespoons melted butter
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- ¼ teaspoon black pepper
- ¼ teaspoon oregano
- ¼ crushed red cayenne pepper
Directions:
- Preheat oven to 375 *F. Line a baking sheet with foil. The piece of foil should be big enough to fold over and seal the fish.
- In a small bowl, add lemon juice, garlic and melted butter. Add salt, peppers, and oregano. Whisk everything together.
- Place salmon onto prepared baking sheet.
- Pour the butter mixture over the salmon.
- Fold the sides of the foil over the salmon. Make sure it is well sealed so the sauce does not leak.
- Place into oven and bake until cooked for about 25-30 minutes. (Baking time may vary slightly due to thickness of fish and your oven.)
- Open the foil and broil the fish for 2-3 minutes or bake for another 5-10 min.
- Remove from the oven. Using a spoon pour some of the butter sauce left in the foil onto the salmon before serve.
- Serve it with veggies, salad, or rice.
Enjoy!
