Lemon Pepper Salmon
Author: Melissa Howell
Ingredients
  • 1-2 lb. salmon fillet
  • 1/2 tsp. kosher salt
  • 1/2 tsp. lemon pepper
Instructions
  1. Preheat oven to 450 degrees.
  2. Line a small cookie sheet or baking pan with aluminum foil.
  3. Lay the salmon down on the aluminum foil, skin side down.
  4. Sprinkle with salt and lemon pepper. (Use as much or as little as you would like).
  5. Bake on the center rack in the oven for 12-15 minutes. When salmon easily flakes with a fork, it is done.
  6. Let salmon rest for about five minutes.
  7. Slip a spatula between the skin and the meat and gently separate the two. Carefully lift the salmon from the skin and place it on a serving plate.
