This salmon in the oven is on repeat at our house. Almost once a week, sometimes more. It’s the dinner I fall back on when the day has been full and I still want something decent on the table, without turning cooking into a project. I’ve made it so many times that I don’t really think about it anymore. The oven goes on, the salmon goes in, and while it bakes I tidy up or get the rest of dinner ready. It comes out flaky and juicy, lightly lemony, and familiar in the best way.
