Oven Baked Salmon with Jalapeño Garlic and Lime

I came across this recipe on Pinterest (originally by a spicy perspective) and had to try it - so simple! It didn't have any "heat" at all to it. It all depends on your jalapeno. Grate it and smell it to see if its super hot or not, so you add more or less. Garlic and lime - yummy. 

2 pounds wild caught salmon filet
2 Tablespoons olive oil
1 lime zest and juice
2 garlic cloves, minced
1 jalapeño, grated
kosher salt and freshly cracked black pepper


Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Lay the salmon on it and pat the salmon dry with a paper towel.

Mix remaining ingredients in a small bowl. (save the lime juice to squeeze over the top after cooked)  Pour over salmon and spread around liberally. Bake 10-14 minutes , just until cooked through. Squeeze lime juice over top - serve warm.
