Baked Salmon w/Lemon Butter Sauce

A delicious delicacy, this Baked Salmon is tender buttery and full of flavor. We enjoy this fish with a side of wild rice and steamed broccoli.

Ingredients:

4 salmon fillets

Salt and pepper to taste

2 tbsp. olive oil

2 tbsp. butter

2 garlic cloves, minced

1/4 cup chicken broth

2 tbsp. lemon juice

1 tbsp. chopped parsley

Directions:

Preheat oven to 400°F.

Season salmon fillets with salt and pepper.

Heat olive oil in a large oven-safe skillet over medium-high heat.

Add salmon fillets to the skillet and cook for 2-3 minutes per side or until lightly browned.

Remove skillet from heat and transfer to the oven.

Bake for 8-10 minutes or until salmon is cooked through.

In another skillet, melt butter over medium heat.

Add minced garlic and cook for 1-2 minutes or until fragrant.

Add chicken broth and lemon juice to the skillet and bring to a boil.

Cook for 2-3 minutes or until sauce is slightly reduced.
