A delightful and easy-to-make salmon dish infused with fresh herbs and citrus flavors.
Preheat your oven to 450°F (230°C).
Preheating ensures even cooking and the right texture for the salmon.
Arrange half of the rosemary sprigs in a single layer in the center of a baking pan.
This creates a fragrant bed for the salmon to cook on.
Slice the red onion into thin rings and spread them over the rosemary.
Evenly spread the onion slices for consistent flavor distribution.
Place the salmon fillets skin-side down on top of the onion layer.
Ensure the fillets are not overlapping for even cooking.
Season the salmon with salt and black pepper to taste.
Adjust the seasoning to your preference for a balanced flavor.
Lay the remaining rosemary sprigs over the salmon fillets.
This adds an aromatic touch to the dish.
Slice the lemons into thin rounds and place them over the rosemary.
The lemon slices will infuse the salmon with a zesty flavor.
Drizzle olive oil evenly over the salmon and lemon.
Use a light hand to avoid overpowering the dish with oil.
Roast the salmon in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes, or until the fish flakes easily with a fork.
Check the salmon at 15 minutes to prevent overcooking.
Serve the salmon warm, garnished with the roasted onion and lemon slices.
Pair with a side of steamed vegetables or a fresh salad for a complete meal.
