Ingredients

  • 1 pound wild salmon (skin-on)
  • Sea salt & freshly ground black pepper
  • 1 garlic clove , minced
  • 1 tablespoon minced chives or green onions
  • 1 tablespoon minced fresh herbs (e.g. dill, basil, parsley and/or thyme)
  • Juice of quarter lemon
  • 2 teaspoons extra virgin olive oil

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 425˚F, or preheat a grill to medium-high.
  • Season the salmon with salt and pepper. Sprinkle the garlic, herbs, lemon juice and olive oil over the salmon, using your fingers to gently rub the mixture all over the flesh. Let sit 15 minutes.
  • Roast the salmon on a parchment-lined baking sheet, or grill it in a fish basket (brushed with oil), skin side down, 10-15 minutes, or until the salmon flakes with a fork, but is still bright pink in the middle.
