Place the salmon filets in a large baking dish and pat dry. Drizzle with olive oil and rub evenly into the salmon. Sprinkle with salt, pepper, and paprika. Top with minced garlic and lemon zest, then scatter the lemon rounds around the salmon. Sprinkle with thyme.
Transfer to the oven and roast until the salmon is cooked through and easily flakes with a fork, 10 to 12 minutes.
Remove from oven, serve, and enjoy!!

Lisa S on 2025-10-02 (5 stars): Super easy and fast, great late summer dinner using up my garden's thyme. Served with couscous and roasted parmesan broccoli.
William Dietrich on 2023-12-29 (5 stars): Simple. Elegant.
Megan on 2023-01-17 (5 stars): Super easy and smells great! Haven’t gotten it out of the oven yet, but I can’t wait!
Xhana on 2022-07-25 (5 stars): We enjoyed this easy to prepare dish tonight. We have a lot of fresh herbs growing in our garden, so added a tiny bit of basil in addition to the thyme. Turn out great and will definitely make this again.
Sheila on 2022-06-26 (5 stars): I loved this! Very easy to make, which is essential to me. I used less garlic and less salt. I still found it a bit too salty. I did roast garlic first like another reviewer suggested. Overall I will definitely make this in the future!
LJ on 2022-03-29 (5 stars): This was so easy and tasty! This one will be a good staple to have on hand.
Vanessa on 2022-01-27 (5 stars): Really delicious! We've been broiling our salmon but this offered a similarly succulent result and a lot easier to clean up after. My husband actually made it and it required minimal questions which is a huge win for me! ha
Kristina on 2021-08-21 (5 stars): Made this tonight! Fantastic recipe! Thank you.
Jamarcus on 2021-04-15 (5 stars): Tried this for the first time tonight and it was wonderful! Quick, easy, and delicious!
Brittney on 2021-03-12 (5 stars): Easy and delicious, this has quickly become out go to meal when we don't have anything else planned!
Cassandra K on 2021-01-08 (5 stars): So delicious and easy. The leftover salmon tasted great cold the next day over some greens also. We made a smaller batch of salmon and the only change we made was just a sprinkle of salt instead of the full amount listed. Will definitely be adding this to my go-to list of dinner recipes!
Bee Satterlee on 2021-01-05 (5 stars): This recipe is so so good! I was short on time, but it took almost no time or effort at all to make. I served it along some baby bok choy. Yummy!!
Alex on 2020-12-03 (5 stars): SO yummy!!! Will make again.
Carolyn on 2020-11-30 (5 stars): This is the best salmon recipe! Rarely, do I find a recipe where the adults and kids eat the same thing, I like to use less olive oil on top and it turns out so yummy! We’d love more salmon recipes! Thank you :)
