Step 1

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

Step 2

In a small bowl, combine olive oil, minced garlic, lemon juice, lemon zest, chopped fresh parsley, salt, and pepper.

Step 3

Place the salmon fillets on the prepared baking sheet.

Step 4

Brush the lemon garlic butter mixture over each salmon fillet, ensuring they are well coated.

Step 5

Lightly spray the tops of the salmon fillets with cooking spray. This will help them get crispy and golden brown.

Step 7

If desired, garnish with additional chopped fresh parsley and lemon slices for presentation.
