Salmon is an easy main course to prepare when you are short on time. This is a Seriously Simple dish for a quick, satisfying and tasty meal.
My preference in chilly months is to slow roast salmon filets in a 275-degree oven. Whether I am serving it chilled or warm, the technique remains the same. All you need is a parchment-lined sheet pan. I have even cooked this on a foil-lined pan in a toaster oven with great results.
The slow roasting technique produces a creamy, moist texture. Sometimes I’ll add fresh, chopped up dill or cilantro to the topping if I have it on hand. You could also vary the topping with other citrus like orange, tangerine or Meyer lemon. I like to cook the fillet whole and then cut it into pieces for serving….
