Ingredients
Salmon:
- 1 pound salmon skin removed
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- kosher salt + black pepper
Chimichurri:
- 1/2 cup yellow onion minced
- 1/2 cup parsley leaves chopped
- 2 tablespoons fresh oregano chopped
- 1 tablespoon garlic minced
- 1 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
- 1 teaspoon ground pepper
- 1/2 teaspoon red pepper flakes
- 1/2 cup olive oil
- 1/2 cup red wine vinegar
Instructions
- Preheat oven broiler to high, and prep the top rack of your oven so it's 8" from the bottom of the broiler. Option to line a baking sheet with foil for easier clean up.
- Place salmon on baking sheet and brush with oil, then sprinkle with salt and pepper. Bake in preheated oven until the salmon is almost cooked through--this will depend on how thick your salmon is but usually between 7-9 minutes. I typically pull my salmon a little before it is cooked through fully, and allow it to come to temp as it rests on the counter.
- Meanwhile, make the chimichurri sauce by combining all chimichurri ingredients together. I prefer to chop everything by hand, as you definitely don't want to get the herbs too small in the food processor.
- Spoon sauce over salmon before serving, and enjoy!
