Equipment

  • 1 Baking Sheet

Ingredients

  • 4 Salmon Filets skin on
  • 1 tsp Garlic Powder
  • 2 tsp Paprika
  • ½ tsp Kosher Salt
  • ½ tsp Black Pepper
  • 6 tsp Butter divided into 4 servings
  • 2 tbsp Chili Oil for drizzling

Instructions

  • Preheat Oven to 400℉. Place Salmon on Baking Sheet, skin side down, parchment paper optional for easier cleanup.
  • Add spices to a bowl and stir to combine. Evenly distribute seasoning over the tops of the fish filets.
  • Top each filet with a pat of butter (about 1½ tsp for each fish).
  • Drizzle chili oil over the fish (about 2 tbsp in total).
  • Bake in the oven for 15-17 minutes, depending upon desired doneness. If meal prepping, reduce bake time by 1-2 minutes to allow for reheating without overcooking fish. Enjoy!
