Baked Salmon
I often make this very moist and flavorful oven-baked salmon for company because I can have it ready in less than half an hour. This baked salmon with lemon is well complemented by rice or a green vegetable and a tossed salad. —Emily Chaney, Penobscot, Maine

Hello! Thanks for this good recipe. Iand#039;ll try to cook it. I want to introduce one of my favorite fish recipe too - baked salmon. I really love this dish, baked slmon so easy and tasty food. I love to add a lot of spice and eat salmon with rice.
This was awesome!!! I LOVED it. Made exactly as recipe states. Great recipe!!
This was super easy. I didn't have wine or chicken broth so I skipped it and they still were so good! Easy for a weeknight meal, we are trying to add more fish to our diet this will definitely help us with that!!! Made it for my cousin as well and she loved it. Goes great over a bed of lettuce.
I think this is the best method for preparing salmon. You can always alter the liquid and spices, depending on your hankaring is that day. ????. Thank you for sharing!!
I cook salmon in the oven, place on a sheet of foil sprayed with non stick cooking spray, add alittle lemon jiuce on top sprinkle with salt and pepper, add slices of butter on top and sprinkle with alittle garlic powder. bake in oven at 350 for about 30 minutes. it is done when it is flaky. I made this recipe from this site: http://salmonrecipes.org/oven-baked-salmon-recipe/ before visiting your site and this time my family surprised me that how amazing oven baked salmon is.
I made this for an easy and quick healthy meal. Based on reviews about being bland, I used Cajun seasonings on half of one fillet, and lemon pepper on the other half. The second fillet was made according to the recipe. I used chicken broth because I was without wine. My fish was done perfectly after 15 minutes at 425. All 3 versions were good, but Cajun seasoning was declared the favorite. Use this recipe for the method and personalize it with your favorite seasoning. This recipe is a keeper.Lynne TOH Volunteer Food Editor
I used Rosemary instead of tarragon and added salt before brushing surface with softened butter.It came out well. I will be making this again.
It came out so moist and it is so easy, loved this recipe.
Used lemon pepper, so moist and delicious. Also tried sliced raw onions and lemon on the side w tarter sauce. Was delicious too.
