Instructions

  1. Step 1: Preheat your oven to 275°F (135°C). Lightly oil a baking dish with 1 tbsp olive oil.
  2. Step 2: Pat dry 4 salmon fillets (6 oz each), season with 1 tsp salt and 1/2 tsp black pepper, and drizzle with 1 tbsp olive oil. Place fillets skin-side down in the baking dish.
  3. Step 3: Roast salmon in the oven for 20-25 minutes until just cooked through and flaky but moist.
  4. Step 4: While salmon roasts, combine 1/2 cup plain Greek yogurt, 2 tbsp chopped fresh dill, 1 tsp lemon zest, 1 tbsp lemon juice, and 1 minced garlic clove in a small bowl. Mix well and chill.
  5. Step 5: Remove salmon from oven and serve immediately with a generous dollop of the lemon-dill yogurt sauce.
