👨‍🍳 Instructions

Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).

Combine 1/2 cup olive oil, lemon juice, garlic, brown sugar, oregano, thyme, salt, and pepper in a bowl.

Place a large piece of aluminum foil on a baking sheet and brush with olive oil.

Place salmon in the middle of the foil, skin-side down.

Drizzle with olive oil mixture.

Fold up the edges of the foil over the salmon to create a packet, making sure to seal the edges.

Bake in the preheated oven until fish flakes easily with a fork, 20 to 25 minutes.

If your salmon fillet is very thick, it can take longer.

Garnish with fresh parsley and lemon slices.
