Mince your garlic and cut your salmon into individual portions (about 3-5 ounces each) if necessary. Pat dry the salmon with a paper towel (try these bamboo paper towels for a more sustainable option!).
2 portions salmon, 4 cloves garlic
Place salmon on baking sheet skin side down (option to line with aluminum foil). Squeeze the lemon juice on top.
1 tablespoon lemon juice
Season each fillet generously with steak seasoning and use clean hands to press minced garlic on top to form an outer crust.
1 teaspoon steak seasoning
Drizzle olive oil on top of the garlic as evenly as possible.
1 tablespoon olive oil
Roast for about 20-25 minutes on the top rack until the salmon is cooked through (internal temperature should reach 125°F) and the garlic is just starting to turn golden-brown. *
If you feel your salmon is cooked through but your garlic is not yet browned, turn your oven on broil and watch it closely. Usually, your garlic will roast within 30 seconds to 1 minute.
