Image
PREP 5mins COOK 25mins  4 Servings  The trick to perfectly cooked salmon is to gently bake the fish in a little liquid — such as wine, stock, or water.

Lightly oil and season both sides of the salmon with salt and pepper. Arrange lemon slices and fresh herbs on the bottom of a baking dish large enough to fit the salmon, and then place the salmon, skin-side down,...
