Brush the olive oil mixture generously over each salmon fillet, ensuring they are evenly coated.

Step 5

Bake the salmon in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until the salmon flakes easily with a fork.

Step 6

If desired, switch the oven to broil for the last 2 minutes of cooking to create a slightly crispy top.
