  • Place the garlic baguettes onto one side of a lined baking tray.
  • Lay the salmon fillets, skin-side down, onto the other side of the tray. Season with salt and pepper. 
  • When the oven is hot, roast on the top shelf, 10-15 mins. IMPORTANT: Wash your hands and equipment after handling raw fish. It's cooked when opaque in the middle.
