Instructions
- Step 1: Preheat oven to 425°F (220°C). Pat salmon fillets dry with paper towels. In a small bowl, mix olive oil, Dijon mustard, minced garlic, dill, parsley, salt, and pepper.
- Step 2: Rub the herb mixture evenly over both sides of each salmon fillet. Place on a parchment-lined baking sheet, top with lemon slices, and drizzle with any remaining sauce.
- Step 3: Roast for 12-14 minutes until the salmon is opaque and flakes easily with a fork (internal temperature should reach 125°F/52°C for medium).
- Step 4: Let rest for 3 minutes before serving. Garnish with extra dill and lemon wedges for squeezing.
