Ingredients

  • 2 salmon filets
  • 2 tsp grapeseed oil
  • 2 lemons
  • 1 tsp Simply Organic All-Purpose Seasoning
  • 1/2 tsp garlic powder
  • salt & pepper, to taste

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 375°
  • Line 9 x 9 baking dish with foil (makes for an easy clean-up)
  • Place salmon filets, skin side down, in the dish and drizzle with oil. Using a basting brush, make sure the oil coats the top of the salmon
  • Squeeze the juice of a lemon on each filet (1/2 per piece)
  • Sprinkle with seasonings and top with slices of the second lemon
  • Cover with foil and bake in oven for 15 minutes or until filets are flaky

Notes

If you're not watching your caloric intake, you can also top each filet with a pat of butter. 
You can also substitute seasoning with what ever you like.  I sometime use Herbs de Provence or Italian Seasoning.
