Follow these simple steps to create the perfect Baked King Salmon:

1. Preheat the Oven: Set your oven to 400°F (200°C) to ensure it’s hot when you place the salmon inside.
2. Prepare a Baking Dish: Lightly grease a baking dish with cooking spray or olive oil.
3. Mix Marinade: In a small bowl, combine olive oil, lemon juice, minced garlic, thyme, paprika, salt, and black pepper. Whisk until well mixed.
4. Prepare Salmon: Place the King Salmon fillets skin-side down in the baking dish. Pour the marinade evenly over the fillets, ensuring they are well coated.
5. Add Lemon Slices: Place lemon slices on top of the fillets for added flavor.
6. Bake: Transfer the baking dish to the preheated oven. Bake for 20-25 minutes or until the salmon is opaque and flakes easily with a fork.
7. Check Doneness: Salmon should reach an internal temperature of 145°F (63°C).
8. Garnish & Serve: Remove the dish from the oven. Garnish with fresh herbs if desired, and serve immediately.
