Over the years I’ve come to refine my preparation of it at home and narrowed it down to this: my go-to easy baked salmon recipe with plenty of fresh herbs, lemon, and garlic dill sauce for serving. Plus, it requires just 20 minutes and 7 ingredients to prepare. Let’s do this! This recipe starts with seasoning the salmon. I like to keep things simple with a little oil, salt, pepper, and fresh dill. Thinly sliced lemon adds a pop of color, which enhances the visual presentation while adding a bit of citrus flavor to the fish. The cooking can either be done entirely on a baking sheet, or — my preferred method — start on a cast iron skillet to speed cooking time, then finish baking in the oven until tender. Meanwhile, prepare your garlic dill sauce, which is a simple mixture of hummus, lemon juice, minced garlic, and fresh or dried dill. Thin with water for a tangy, zesty, herb-infused sauce that’s perfect for serving! We hope you LOVE our take on salmon!
