Ingredients Equipment Method Notes

Ingredients
  

  • 1.5 lb salmon skin-on fillet, pin bones removed and cut into 4 portions
  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 tbsp Old Bay seasoning
  • 1 lemon cut into wedges

Equipment

  • 1 rimmed baking sheet

Method
 

  1. Heat the oven to 425°F.
  2. Line a rimmed baking sheet with foil.
  3. Arrange the salmon skin-side down on the baking sheet.
  4. Brush the tops with olive oil.
  5. Sprinkle evenly with Old Bay seasoning.
  6. Roast for 12 to 15 minutes, until the thickest part reaches 145°F and the salmon flakes easily with a fork.
  7. Serve with lemon wedges for squeezing over the salmon.

Notes

For accurate doneness, check the thickest portion with an instant-read thermometer. Refrigerate leftovers for up to 3 days or freeze for up to 2 months. Use a reduced-sodium seafood seasoning for a lower-sodium option.
