Baked Salmon Recipe ⋆ Citrus-Herbed Baked Salmon

This is one of the most flavorful and moist salmon recipes I have ever tasted.

• 2 (8 ounce) salmon fillets
• 2 tablespoons chopped fresh basil

2. Make a bed of lemon slices in the center of each foil square; top with red onion. Lay a salmon fillet atop each pile of lemon slices and onion; season with basil, dill, and sea salt. Fold edges of the aluminum foil over the salmon and seal completely.
