Baked Salmon with Cherry Tomatoes and Olives

Ingredients

• 21 oz salmon fillets
• olive oil ((extra virgin olive oil preferably))
• salt
• 1 lemon, thinly sliced
• 4 oz cherry tomatoes, sliced in half ((or grape tomatoes))
• 1/2 cup black olives ((sliced if large))
• 1 1/2 tablespoons capers
• parsley, finely chopped

Instructions

1. 1

   Preheat your oven to 300℉ (or 145-150℃).

2. 2

   Place salmon fillets in a baking dish and massage with a generous amount of olive oil and salt (about 1 teaspoon). Set aside to give them time to become less cold while you prepare and cut other ingredients.

3. 3

   Arrange the lemon slices over the fillets, then scatter the tomato halves, olives, and capers over the fish. Sprinkle some chop parsley and drizzle everything lightly with olive oil.

4. 4

   Cover the baking dish and bake in the oven for about 35-40 minutes (more or less depending on how thick your fillets are) until the internal temperature reaches 125℉-130℉ (52-54℃).

5. 5

   Remove from the oven and serve. You can add a squeeze of lemon if desired.
