Baked Salmon with Feta & Sun-Dried Tomatoes

Ingredients

• 4 salmon fillets (6 ounces each), preferably skin-on
• 2 tablespoons olive oil, extra virgin
• 2 cloves garlic, minced
• 1 teaspoon dried oregano
• 1 teaspoon lemon zest, freshly grated
• Salt and pepper, to taste
• 1 cup crumbled feta cheese
• 1/2 cup sun-dried tomatoes, chopped
• 1/4 cup fresh parsley, chopped
• Juice of 1 lemon

Instructions

1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
2. In a large bowl, combine olive oil, minced garlic, dried oregano, lemon zest, salt, and pepper. Mix well to create a marinade.
3. Place the salmon fillets in the marinade, ensuring each piece is well-coated. Let them marinate for at least 15 minutes.
4. While the salmon marinates, mix together the crumbled feta cheese, chopped sun-dried tomatoes, fresh parsley, and lemon juice in a bowl.
5. Line a baking dish with parchment paper or lightly grease it. Place the marinated salmon fillets in the baking dish skin-side down.
6. Generously spoon the feta and sun-dried tomato mixture over each salmon fillet.
7. Place the baking dish in the preheated oven and bake for 15-20 minutes, or until the salmon flakes easily with a fork.
8. Remove the salmon from the oven and let it rest for a few minutes before serving.
