Oven-baked salmon steak, an excellent dining dish that is healthy for both children and adults, especially the elderly or in poor health. Those wishing to lose weight baked salmon is also quite suitable, because protein food is always necessary. Cooking such dishes is a pleasure, because salmon is a completely self-sufficient product, and the task of the cook is not to spoil it with his culinary abilities. Therefore, we use a minimal set of additives: thyme with its elegant aroma will emphasize the advantages of fish, vegetable oil will not allow it to dry in the oven, enveloping the flesh like a film. It remains not to break the moment of readiness and immediately serve!

How do I bake a salmon steak in the oven? Take the products on the list. You can take any vegetable oil. Choose spices for your taste, you can use special dry mixtures for fish. I do not recommend, however, to take strongly fragrant types of bay leaf so as not to clog the aroma of fish. By the way, about fish: it can be any red, not only salmon.

Wash the salmon steak and dry with napkins. Remove the skin from the steak along with the scales, it is easier and easier than cleaning it, the more the layer of subcutaneous fat will leave. And it is better to cut off the fatty edge of the abdomen, too, we do not need extra fat.

Pour the steak over the lemon juice, squeezing it out of the fresh lemon. Salt the fish with coarse salt.

Add the spices, vegetable oil, rub the resulting mixture well into the fish. Thyme can be both fresh and dry.

Place a sheet of parchment in the roasting container and place the fish on it. Put in the heated oven for 15-20 minutes. Determine the exact time and temperature of baking by your oven. Bake the fish until tender.

In clear form, the fish will have time to bake and remain juicy. Serve it immediately hot, with any sweet and sour sauces, vegetable salads.
