1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper for easy cleanup.
2. Place the salmon fillets on the prepared baking sheet, skin-side down. Pat the fillets dry with a paper towel to ensure they crisp up nicely.
3. In a small bowl, combine melted butter, lemon juice, lemon zest, minced garlic, dill, parsley, salt, and black pepper. If you like a hint of sweetness, add a teaspoon of honey.
4. Brush the lemon herb butter mixture generously over each salmon fillet, making sure they’re well coated for maximum flavor.
5. Bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until the salmon is opaque and flakes easily with a fork. Keep an eye on it to avoid overcooking; a little under is better to retain moisture.
6. Remove from the oven and let rest for a couple of minutes. Garnish with lemon slices and extra herbs, if desired, before serving.

One tip I learned from my grandmother is to always cook with your senses. Listen for the gentle sizzle of the butter, watch as the salmon transforms in color, and breathe in those delightful aromas. It’s all part of the experience!
