Ingredients

– 4 salmon fillets (approximately 6 ounces each)
– 4 tablespoons unsalted butter
– 4 cloves garlic, minced
– 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
– 1 teaspoon paprika
– Salt and pepper, to taste
– 2 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)

Instructions

Creating Garlic Butter Salmon is a straightforward process. Just follow these simple steps:

1. Preheat the Oven: Set your oven to 375°F (190°C) to get it ready for the salmon.
2. Prepare the Baking Sheet: Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease it to prevent sticking.
3. Season the Salmon: Place the salmon fillets on the prepared baking sheet. Season generously with salt, pepper, and paprika.
4. Melt Butter: In a small saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat. Once melted, add minced garlic and sauté for about 1 minute until fragrant.
5. Add Lemon Juice: Remove the saucepan from heat and stir in the fresh lemon juice.
6. Coat the Salmon: Pour the garlic butter mixture evenly over the salmon fillets, ensuring they are well coated.
7. Bake the Salmon: Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and bake for 15-20 minutes, or until the salmon flakes easily with a fork.
8. Garnish: Once the salmon is done, remove it from the oven and sprinkle fresh parsley over the top.
9. Serve Hot: Transfer the salmon to serving plates, drizzling any remaining garlic butter from the baking sheet on top.
10. Pair with Lemon Wedges: Serve with lemon wedges for an extra burst of flavor.

By following these steps, you’ll successfully create an incredible Garlic Butter Salmon dish that is sure to impress!
