Ingredients
  

  • 3 oz Ghee for Whole30 and Paleo or butter for other diets
  • 1 tsp Real Salt
  • 1 Lemon juiced and zested
  • 1 tbsp Fresh Parsley chopped
  • 1 tsp Fresh Dill chopped
  • 1 clove Garlic minced
  • White Pepper dash
  • 4 4.5 oz Wild Salmon Fillets

Instructions
 

  • Preheat oven to 400F.
  • Place all ingredients except for salmon in a small bowl and melt in the microwave for 30-45 seconds.
  • Stir until combined.
  • Place the salmon fillets on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper or a Silpat.
  • Using a pastry brush, coat the salmon with the lemon herb butter, evenly spreading it over the tops of each fillet.
  • Bake, uncovered, on the top or second to top rack for 10-12 minutes, or until salmon is cooked through and flakes easily with a fork. (145 degrees F)
  • Alternately the fish can be broiled on medium/high on the second to top rack for 8-10 minutes, or until cooked through. This method will give you a bit more crunchy, caramelized crust. (Place it directly on the pan or use tin foil. Do not use parchment paper or a Silpat for this method.)
