Enjoy perfectly baked salmon with crispy skin and juicy, flavorful meat, enhanced with fresh herbs and lemon.

4 fillets Salmon fillets (6 oz each) (Opt for center-cut, skin-on for even cooking.)
2 tablespoons Olive oil (Use extra-virgin for best flavor.)
1 teaspoon Garlic powder (Can combine with fresh garlic for extra punch.)
1 teaspoon Onion powder (Substitute with minced shallot if needed.)
to taste Salt (Flaky sea salt recommended.)
to taste Pepper
2 wedges Lemon wedges (Warm briefly for juice release.)
2 tablespoons Fresh herbs (Dill or parsley, sprinkle post-baking.)

Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C).
Brush salmon fillets with olive oil and season with salt, pepper, garlic powder, and onion powder.
Place fillets skin-side down on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
Bake for 12-15 minutes until skin is crispy and fish is cooked through.
Squeeze lemon juice over the fillets and sprinkle with fresh herbs before serving.

For extra flavor, marinate the salmon with herbs and lemon for 30 minutes before baking.
