Old Bay Salmon

• servings: 4 servings
• active time: 10 minutes
• total time: 25 minutes

Ingredients

1½ pounds salmon fillets (use 4 fillets)

2 tablespoons olive oil (you can also use extra virgin olive oil or avocado oil)

1 teaspoon Old Bay seasoning

½ teaspoon garlic powder

½ teaspoon onion powder

½ teaspoon dried dill weed

½ teaspoon dried parsley

Directions

Preheat the oven to 450˚F.

Generously grease a baking sheet or pan with cooking spray. Place the salmon fillets, skin side down, on the baking sheet and brush them with olive oil.

In a small mixing bowl combine old bay seasoning, garlic powder, onion powder, dill weed, and parsley; mix to combine.

Add the spice mixture to the fillets and rub it all around the top and sides.

Bake for 10 minutes, or until the fish flakes easily with a fork. You can also use an instant-read thermometer to check for doneness; salmon is cooked through when its internal temperature registers at 145˚F.

Remove from oven and let stand a couple of minutes before serving.

To Make with Roasted Vegetables (optional)

Prepare halved brussel sprouts and slices of yellow squash with a drizzle of olive oil, salt, and pepper; arrange on a baking sheet and roast for 10 minutes. Add raw salmon fillets around the veggies and continue to roast for 10 more minutes, or until the salmon is cooked through.
