  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon dried oregano
  • 1 teaspoon dried thyme
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1 head of garlic, roasted and cloves separated
  • 1/2 cup (1 stick) unsalted butter, softened
  • 1/4 cup chopped fresh parsley

  • 1 lemon, zested and juiced
  • 2 tablespoons capers, drained

Instructions:

1. Preheat Oven:

Set your oven to 400°F (200°C) to prepare for the roasting process.

2. Season the Salmon:

In a small bowl, combine the olive oil, oregano, thyme, salt, and pepper. Brush this fragrant mixture over the salmon steaks, ensuring they are evenly coated.

3. Roast the Salmon:

Place the seasoned salmon steaks on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Roast them in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes, or until the salmon is cooked through and flakes easily with a fork.

4. Make the Roasted Garlic and Herb Butter:




Roasted Garlic

While the salmon is roasting, prepare the flavorful butter. In a small bowl, mix together the roasted garlic cloves, softened butter, parsley, dill, lemon zest, and juice. Season with salt and pepper to taste.

5. Serve the Roasted Salmon:

Once the salmon is cooked, remove it from the oven and transfer it to individual plates. Top each salmon steak with a generous dollop of the roasted garlic and herb butter. Garnish with capers and additional lemon wedges for a pop of freshness.

Serve immediately and savor the delectable flavors of this keto-friendly dish.

Tips:

  • For a crispy skin, pat the salmon steaks dry before seasoning and roasting.
  • Roast the garlic cloves for 30-40 minutes, or until they are soft and golden brown.
  • Use a microplane zester to get the finest lemon zest for a more intense flavor.
  • Adjust the amount of capers to your personal preference for a briny tang.
