Ingredients:

  • 4 salmon steaks (6 ounces each), skin-on
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 tablespoon butter
  • 1 head of garlic, roasted and cloves separated
  • 1/4 cup chopped fresh parsley
  • 1/4 cup chopped fresh dill
  • 1/4 cup chopped fresh chives
  • 1 lemon, zested and juiced
  • 1/2 cup capers, rinsed and drained
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions:

1. Preheat the Oven:

Set your oven to a температуре of 400°F (200°C). While it heats up, gather your ingredients and prepare your cooking space.

2. Prepare the Salmon:

Pat the salmon steaks dry with paper towels to remove excess moisture. Season both sides with salt and pepper according to your taste.

3. Roast the Garlic:

Cut the top off a head of garlic, exposing the cloves. Drizzle with olive oil and wrap it in aluminum foil. Place the garlic in the oven and roast for 30 minutes, or until the cloves are soft and golden brown.

4. Make the Herb Butter:

In a small bowl, combine the softened butter, roasted garlic cloves, parsley, dill, chives, lemon zest, and a squeeze of lemon juice. Mix until well blended. Season with salt and pepper to taste.

5. Prepare the Lemon Caper Sauce:

In a separate bowl, whisk together the remaining lemon juice, capers, and a pinch of salt and pepper. Set aside.

6. Bake the Salmon:

Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Place the salmon steaks on the prepared sheet and top each steak with a dollop of the herb butter. Bake in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes, or until the salmon is cooked through and flakes easily with a fork.

7. Serve and Enjoy:

Transfer the roasted salmon steaks to individual plates. Drizzle the lemon caper sauce over the salmon and garnish with fresh dill. Serve immediately, accompanied by your favorite keto-friendly sides.

Tips:

  • For a crispy skin, pat the salmon steaks dry before cooking.
  • Roast the garlic for a deeper, caramelized flavor.
  • Adjust the amount of lemon juice and capers in the sauce to suit your taste.
  • Serve the salmon with a side of roasted vegetables or a fresh salad for a complete meal.
