Step 1:

Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with foil or parchment paper for easy cleanup.

Step 2:

Place salmon fillets on the prepared baking sheet, skin-side down if applicable. Pat them dry with paper towels.

Step 3:

In a small bowl, mix together melted butter, minced garlic, lemon juice, paprika, salt, and black pepper.

Step 4:

Brush or spoon the garlic butter mixture generously over each piece of salmon, making sure to coat evenly.

Step 5:

Bake for 12–15 minutes, depending on thickness, or until salmon flakes easily with a fork and reaches an internal temperature of 145°F (63°C).

Step 6:

Remove from oven and let rest for 2–3 minutes. Garnish with fresh parsley or dill and serve with lemon wedges.
