Instructions
Step 1: Prepare the Ingredients
Start by preheating your oven to 400°F (200°C). While the oven is heating up, pat the salmon fillets dry using a paper towel. This helps to achieve a crispy sear when cooking.
Step 2: Season the Salmon
In a small bowl, mix olive oil, minced garlic, paprika, salt, and black pepper. Brush this seasoning mixture evenly over the salmon fillets. For an added hint of sweetness, drizzle honey or maple syrup on top.
Step 3: Bake the Salmon
Place the salmon fillets on a lined baking sheet. Bake for 12-15 minutes or until the salmon easily flakes with a fork. If you prefer a crispier texture, broil for the last 2 minutes.
Step 4: Prepare the Side Dishes
While the salmon is baking, roast your favorite vegetables and cook the quinoa or rice according to package instructions.
Step 5: Serve and Enjoy
Plate the salmon with roasted vegetables and quinoa/rice. Drizzle fresh lemon juice over the salmon for extra flavor. Enjoy your homemade HelloFresh salmon recipe!
