Baked Lemon Garlic Salmon

900 gr salmon fillet
salt
olive oil
½ lemon, sliced into rounds
parsley for garnish

for lemon-garlic sauce:
zest of 1 large lemon
juice of 2 lemons
3 tbsp olive oil
5 garlic cloves, chopped
2 tsp dry oregano
1 tsp sweet paprika
½ tsp black pepper

Instructions:

Heat oven to 190 degrees C.
In a small bowl mix together the lemon juice, lemon zest, olive oil, garlic, oregano, paprika and black pepper. Give the sauce a good whisk.

Prepare a sheet pan lined with a large piece of foil (should be large enough to fold over salmon). Brush top of the foil with extra virgin olive oil.

Pat salmon dry and season well on both sides with salt. Place it on the foiled sheetpan. Top with lemon garlic sauce (make sure to spread the sauce evenly.)

Fold foil over the salmon. Bake for 20 minutes until salmon is cooked.

Carefully remove from oven and open foil to uncover the top of the salmon. Place under the broiler briefly, about 3 minutes or so.
