I love this lemon dill salmon recipe! The trick to perfectly baked salmon is gently baking it in a bit of liquid, like wine, stock, or water. Cover the dish and bake until just cooked through. You can call this recipe oven poached salmon. It’s practically foolproof. If your salmon is thick, expect the cooking time to be a few minutes longer than what we share below.
Ingredient:
- 1 ½ pounds salmon fillets, 1-inch thick, preferably wild-caught
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- Salt and fresh ground black pepper
- 1 lemon, cut into slices
- 4 sprigs of fresh dill, plus more for serving
- 1/2 cup dry white wine or water
