1/2 tsp Lemon juice
1.5 tbsp Butter melted
2 tsp Fresh parsley chopped
8 oz Salmon skinless double check to make sure all pin bones are removed by running your finger over top of the filet
2 slices Lemon garnish optional
2 slices Crusty bread lightly toasted and drizzled with olive oil

Preheat the oven to 400 degrees. Season the salmon with salt and pepper.
In a bowl, mix the lemon juice, melted butter, and parsley. Lather the top of the salmon with half of the lemon butter on a foil-lined baking tray.
Bake for about 10 minutes at 400°F, to an internal temperature of 130°F using a thermometer. (Baking time will vary based on your fish fillet thickness.) Brush the remaining lemon butter over top. Set aside to rest for 5 minutes.
Garnish with lemon. Serve with bread.
