This rosemary and lemon baked salmon is the perfect romantic dinner for two when served with an Oregon Pinot Noir, crusty bread, wild rice, and salad.

Ingredients

  • 1 lemon, thinly sliced
  • 4 sprigs fresh rosemary
  • 2 salmon fillets, bones and skin removed
  • salt to taste
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil, or as needed

Directions

  1. Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F (250 degrees C).
  2. Arrange half the lemon slices in a single layer in a baking dish. Layer with 2 sprigs rosemary, and top with salmon fillets. Sprinkle salmon with salt, layer with remaining rosemary sprigs, and top with remaining lemon slices. Drizzle with olive oil.
  3. Bake in the preheated oven until fish is easily flaked with a fork, 12 to 15 minutes.
