Perfect Roasted Salmon

1. 1

   Preheat oven to 425 degrees F and line a half sheet pan with nonstick foil.

2. 2

   Place salmon, skin side down, on foil.

3. 3

   Brush salmon lightly with olive oil, then sprinkle with kosher salt and pepper.

4. 4

   Roast, uncovered, in the center of the oven until cooked through and salmon flakes easily (approximately 5 minutes per 1/2-inch thickness).

5. 5

   Note: I like to have lots of leftovers for salads and snacking so I like to roast a 3-pound fillet, but feel free to choose any size that suits your needs.

6. 6

   Youll have to adjust the amount of salt and pepper used, but the cooking technique will remain the same.
