This Garlic Butter Baked Salmon is always my go-to recipe whenever I’m craving salmon. It is just insanely delicious! The addition of the broccoli made it a complete meal! A must-try indeed!
Ingredients:
FOR THE SALMON AND VEGETABLES
4 to 6 c broccoli florets
4 (6 oz. each) salmon fillets
FOR THE GARLIC BUTTER SAUCE
1/2 tsp dried oregano
1 lemon, halved and divided
6 tbsp unsalted butter, melted
1/2 tsp dried thyme
salt and fresh ground pepper, to taste
1/2 tsp dried rosemary
chopped fresh parsley, for garnish
1 tbsp light brown sugar
4 cloves garlic, minced
Directions:
Prepare the oven and preheat it to 200 degrees C or 400 degrees F.
Apply cooking spray to the inside of a sheet pan.
Place the broccoli onto the prepared pan and spread it evenly followed by the salmon fillets. Top each fillet with minced garlic and rub each to coat.
Add rosemary, melted butter, thyme, brown sugar, and oregano into a bowl. Whisk everything until well incorporated.
Add the mixture on top of the salmon and veggies, then spread it evenly.
Squeeze 1/2 of the lemon on top of the ingredients followed by a pinch of salt and pepper to season.
Put the baking sheet in the preheated oven and bake the salmon and broccoli for about 15 minutes or until done.
Remove the sheet from the oven and sprinkle freshly chopped parsley on top to garnish.
Serve right away with lemon wedges on the side. Enjoy!
Notes:
Place any leftovers in an airtight container, then put them in the fridge. They can last up to 3 to 4 days or 4 months in the freezer. Reheat for a few minutes before serving again.
