Season salmon fillets evenly with salt and pepper. In a plastic bag, place salmon, lemon rind, 1 Tbsp. of the lemon juice, 1 Tbsp. of the olive oil, and rosemary in a Ziploc bag. Make sure the salmon is evenly coated. Marinate in the refrigerator for 30 minutes.

Preheat your broiler. Brush a baking dish with olive oil. Remove salmon from marinade. Place fillets, skin side down, on the oil-coated dish. Broil fish 6 inches from heat for about 8-10 minutes or until fillets flake easily with a fork.

Step 3

Whisk together remaining tablespoon of lemon juice and 1 tablespoon oil; drizzle over fillets. Garnish, with lemon slices.
