Lemon and dill complement the mild flavour of salmon. Fillet thickness determines the cooking time: check the fish, not just the clock.
Method
Quantities for 4 people. Total time includes preparation and any waiting time. Cooking times are a guide: fish thickness and your oven or pan make a difference.
- 1
Preheat the oven to 200°C (180°C fan). If using potatoes or rice, cook according to the packet instructions.
- 2
Place the salmon in a baking dish, brush with oil and season with salt and pepper.
- 3
Arrange lemon slices and half the dill on the salmon.
- 4
Bake for about 12–18 minutes, depending on thickness. Check that the thickest part is cooked through; the fish should flake easily.
- 5
Scatter over the remaining dill and serve with your chosen side dish.
