Garlic Butter Salmon

Garlic Butter Salmon

Healthy Fact of the Day

Salmon is rich in omega-3 fatty acids, which support heart and brain health. Use grass-fed butter or olive oil as a substitute for a healthier fat option. Adding extra garlic boosts immune-boosting properties and flavor without extra calories.

Ingredients

  • 4 salmon fillets (about 6 oz each)
  • 3 tbsp unsalted butter, melted
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 tbsp fresh lemon juice
  • 1 tsp paprika
  • 1 tsp dried parsley (or 1 tbsp fresh parsley, chopped)
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1/4 tsp black pepper
  • Lemon wedges, for serving

     Instructions
  1. Preheat Oven: Set to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or foil.

  2. Prepare Garlic Butter: In a small bowl, mix melted butter, garlic, lemon juice, paprika, parsley, salt, and pepper.

  3. Arrange Salmon: Place salmon fillets skin-side down on the prepared baking sheet. Spoon the garlic butter mixture evenly over each fillet.

  4. Bake: Bake for 12-15 minutes, or until the salmon is cooked through and flakes easily with a fork. Cooking time may vary based on the thickness of the fillets.

  5. Optional Broil: For a golden finish, broil the salmon for 2-3 minutes after baking.

  6. Serve: Garnish with additional parsley and serve with lemon wedges on the side. Pair with steamed vegetables, rice, or a fresh salad for a complete meal.

    Treat yourself to this delicious and easy Garlic Butter Salmon! With its tender, flaky texture and savory, buttery flavor, it’s a restaurant-quality dish you can make at home in just minutes. Perfect for weeknights or special occasions alike. Enjoy!

Tip of the Day

“Always let your meat rest before slicing.”

Whether you're roasting a chicken, grilling steak, or baking pork tenderloin, letting cooked meat rest for 5–10 minutes before slicing allows the juices to redistribute evenly. This simple step keeps your meat juicy and tender, ensuring every bite is flavorful and moist. Bonus: It gives you a moment to plate your sides or garnish for a perfect presentation!
