Easy and delicious lemon-butter salmon fillets. This is an old recipe I changed up a bit and doubled in order to feed a large group or family.
Ingredients
- vegetable oil cooking spray
- 8 (4 ounce) skinless salmon fillets
- 4 tablespoons salted butter
- 2 ½ tablespoons fresh lemon juice
- salt and ground black pepper to taste
Directions
Step 1
Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Spray a baking dish with cooking spray and place salmon fillets in the dish.
Step 2
Place butter in a microwave-safe bowl and microwave on high in 30-second increments until melted, 30 seconds to 1 minute.
Step 3
Mix lemon juice, salt, and pepper into the melted butter; pour over the salmon.
Step 4
Bake in the preheated oven until fish flakes easily with a fork, 12 to 18 minutes.
Cook?s Note
I use wild salmon fillets that are approximately 1/2-inch thick. You can use one large 2-pound salmon fillet cut into eight individual pieces if preferred.
