Notes
Recipe Source: Delish
- Use fresh wild salmon for the best taste and texture.
- Covering the salmon with foil during baking helps to retain moisture and prevent it from drying out.
- The cooking time may vary due to the thickness of the salmon fillet, so keep an eye on it while it's in the oven. Check for doneness by inserting a fork into the thickest part of the fillet; it should flake easily and appear opaque.
