Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F. Start by getting your oven ready for the salmon.
In a small bowl, whisk together the Dijon mustard, chopped parsley, lemon juice, olive oil, chopped garlic, and a pinch of salt and pepper until well combined.
Lay the salmon skin-side down on a parchment paper-lined baking sheet. Spread the mustard mixture evenly over the top of the salmon, covering it generously.
Bake in the preheated oven for 18 to 20 minutes, or until the salmon flakes easily with a fork. The cooking time may vary depending on the thickness of the salmon.
Once done, remove the salmon from the oven, let it rest for a couple of minutes, then cut into individual portions and serve warm.
