Method
Restated from the original video
- 1
Heat the oven to 200 °C (400 °F) and line a baking tray with baking paper.
- 2
Pat the salmon dry with kitchen paper and lay the fillets skin side down on the tray, leaving a little space between them.
- 3
Finely grate the zest of the lemon into a small bowl, then squeeze in its juice.
- 4
Stir the olive oil, garlic and most of the dill into the bowl.
- 5
Season the fillets with salt and pepper, then spoon the lemon mixture over the tops and spread it evenly.
- 6
Bake for 12-15 min, depending on thickness. The fish is ready when it flakes apart easily at the thickest part, and a thermometer in the centre reads about 52 °C (125 °F) for moist fish.
- 7
Rest for 3 min, sprinkle with the remaining dill and serve with lemon wedges.
