Mediterranean Salmon Recipe: Easy & Delicious!

Ingredients

• 0.5 cup olive oil
• 0.25 cup balsamic vinegar
• 4 cloves garlic, pressed
• 4 (4 ounce) fillets salmon
• 1.5 teaspoons garlic salt
• 1 tablespoon chopped fresh cilantro
• 1 tablespoon chopped fresh basil

Instructions

1. In a small bowl, combine olive oil and balsamic vinegar.
2. Place salmon fillets in a baking dish. Rub minced garlic evenly over each fillet, then pour the oil and vinegar mixture over the salmon, ensuring each piece is well coated. Season generously with garlic salt, then sprinkle fresh cilantro and basil over the top. Allow the salmon to marinate for 10 minutes.
3. Position an oven rack approximately 6 inches from the broiler element and preheat the oven's broiler to high.
4. Remove the salmon fillets from the marinade, gently shaking off any excess liquid. Reserve a few tablespoons of the marinade for basting; discard the rest.
5. Broil the salmon in the preheated oven, turning once and basting occasionally with the reserved marinade, until the fish is nicely browned and flakes easily with a fork, approximately 10 to 12 minutes.
