Ingredients
- 1 ½ lbs salmon fillet
- 1-2 tbsp olive oil
- salt
- pepper
- ¼ cup parsley, finely chopped
- ¼ cup parmesan cheese
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 450°
- Combine the salmon, olive oil, and a generous sprinkle of salt and pepper
- Cover a sheet pan with parchment paper, and place the salmon on it. Bake this for 10 minutes
- While the salmon is cooking, combine the parsley and parmesan. You can do this a few hours ahead of time
- After the salmon has cooked for 10 minutes, remove from the oven, and cover it with the parmesan mixture. Continue to cook for 3-5 minutes longer, or until the salmon is cooked to your liking
Notes
Yield: 4 servings NOTE: It’s fine if you don’t have parchment paper. This just helps prevent the salmon from sticking to the pan
