Recipe type: Lean and Green
Cuisine: Fish
Serves: 5
Prep time: 10 mins
Cook time: 20 mins
Total time: 30 mins

 
Ingredients
  • 2-pounds of skinless salmon fillet
  • ¼ teaspoon Kosher salt
  • ¼ teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
  • 2 tablespoons freshly squeezed lemon juice
  • ½ cup minced scallions, white and green parts (4 scallions)
  • ½ cup minced fresh dill
  • ½ cup minced fresh parsley
  • ¼ cup water
  • Lemon wedges, for serving

Instructions
  1. Preheat the oven to 425 degrees.
  2. Place the salmon fillet in a glass, ceramic, or stainless-steel roasting dish and season it with salt and pepper. Drizzle lemon juice evenly over the salmon. Let it stand at room temperature for 15 minutes.
  3. In a small bowl, stir together the scallions, dill, and parsley. Scatter the herb mixture over the salmon fillet, turning it so that both sides are generously coated with the green herbs. Pour the water around the fish fillet.
  4. Roast the salmon for 10 to 12 minutes, until almost cooked in the center at the thickest part. The center will be firm with just a line of uncooked salmon in the very center. (I peek by inserting the tip of a small knife.) Cover the dish tightly with aluminum foil and allow to rest for 10 minutes. Cut the salmon crosswise into serving pieces and serve hot with lemon wedges.
