  • Über dieses Rezept:

    If you've never cooked salmon before, it might seem like a daunting task. Salmon is well known for being healthy, and is typically found on the menu at pretty classy establishments, so no way it's also easy to cook. Well, as it turns out, yes way. You don't need any special equipment, just an oven and your favorite catch. You don't even need a lot of seasoning to make a scrumptious salmon meal, but throwing on a few fresh herbs will take your fish from great to extra great. On top of being simple and healthy, salmon also doesn't take much time to cook. Because of this, there's a risk of overcooking, but luckily you've got MEATER by your side to keep that from happening. So you've got yourself a healthy protein, why not go all out and fix yourself a whole nutritious meal? Brown rice and fresh greens are easy side dishes, and will make you feel better about indulging with an elegant beverage. Speaking of which, salmon is usually coupled with white wine, specifically sweeter kinds like sauvignon blanc or riesling.

    Zubereitungsmethode:

  • 1

    Slice Lemon

    Thinly slice half of your lemon and set the other half aside.

    Citrus is a pretty classic ingredient for fish dishes in cuisines all over the world. Salmon works well with a little bit of a tangy flavor, and the citrus pairs nicely with dill, which is another common ingredient used with fish. But we're about to get to dill in the next step, so we won't get ahead of ourselves here.

    Chop Dill

    Cut off your dill stems and finely chop the herbs.

    Dill has a super distinct flavor that's a little grassy with notes of anise, so it's not the easiest herb to pair with a lot of proteins. So naturally, when someone figured out that it went so nicely with fish, it became a staple. And we're glad it did, because it's DILL-LICIOUS. ...we're so sorry, please forgive us for that.

    Chop Thyme

    Pull your thyme leaves off of the stems and finely chop them.

    Life is all about balance, and while we love classic flavor combos, we also love to change it up every once in a while. In this case, we thought this recipe would benefit from a unique herb element that paired well with dill and lemon, and as luck would have it, we had a lot of thyme on our hands.

    Oil Tray

    Line your tray with parchment, then drizzle the parchment with oil.

    We're big adopters of the "work smarter, not harder" philosophy. Lining the tray with parchment will make your kitchen cleanup easier, and oiling the parchment helps keep the salmon skin from sticking.

    Pre-Heat Oven
