Salmon with Lemon and Thyme

This recipe is very easy and healthy. You can do this in 30 minutes. In the original recipe, rosemary and caper are being used. But Bryan and I both don’t like those two things much. I switched to thyme. It was perfectly fine and delicious. The salmon was moist and soft. This is a great light dinner.

  1. Preheat the oven to 400˚F.
  2. Dry the salmon fillets with paper towel. Brush the salmon fillets with extra-virgin olive oil, and season with salt, pepper, and minced thyme.
