Instructions
Creating Fresh Mediterranean Salmon is a breeze if you follow these simple steps:
1. Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
2. Prepare the Marinade: In a bowl, mix together olive oil, lemon juice, lemon zest, minced garlic, parsley, basil, oregano, salt, and pepper.
3. Marinate the Salmon: Place the salmon fillets in a baking dish, pouring the marinade over them. Let them marinate for about 5 minutes while preparing other ingredients.
4. Add Vegetables: Scatter cherry tomatoes and Kalamata olives around the salmon in the baking dish.
5. Bake the Salmon: Roast in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes or until the salmon flakes easily with a fork. You’ll know it’s done when the fish is opaque and cooked through.
