Recipe brought to you by Robert Muirhead:

Ingredients:

2 garlic cloves, minced
6 Tbsp olive oil
1 tsp dried basil
1 Tbsp fresh parsley, chopped
1 tsp salt
1 tsp ground black pepper
1 Tbsp lemon juice
2 fresh salmon fillets (~6 oz. each)

Directions:

1. In a medium-sized bowl (or right in the glass baking dish), create the marinade by mixing the garlic, olive oil, basil, parsley, salt, black pepper, and lemon juice.

2. Place the fillets in the glass baking dish, and cover liberally with the marinade. Let the salmon marinade for about an hour, turning and reapplying the marinade occasionally.

3. Preheat the oven to 375 degrees.

4. Place the fillets on an aluminum foil bed, cover with the marinade, and fold and seal the foil to create a sealed pouch for the fillets. Place them back in the baking dish, and bake them in the oven for 35-45 minutes (until the fillets are easily flaked with a fork).
