Ingredients :
For Roasted Salmon
1 large lemon, thinly sliced
1 (1.5 - 2 lb.) center-cut salmon fillet
3 tbsp. extra-virgin olive oil
1 tsp. kosher salt
1 tsp. paprika
¾ tsp. ground coriander
¼ tsp. black pepper

For Za'atar Salsa Verde

1 garlic clove, minced or grated
1 tbsp. finely chopped capers

1 tbsp. fresh lemon juice
salt to taste
𝗣𝗥𝗘𝗣𝗔𝗥𝗔𝗧𝗜𝗢𝗡 :
Step 1 - Preheat oven to 250ºF = 121°C
Step 2 - Arrange lemon slices in a baking dish just large enough to fit salmon. Place salmon overtop, and drizzle with olive oil.
Step 3 - In a small bowl, combine salt, paprika, coriander, and black pepper; mix well.
Step 4 - Scatter spice mixture over salmon, rubbing into flesh with your fingers or a basting brush.
Step 5 - Bake for 30 to 35 minutes, until the fillet is just opaque in the center and easily flakes with a fork.
Step 6 - Meanwhile, prepare Za'atar Salsa Verde by combining cilantro, parsley, garlic, capers, za'atar, and chili flakes in a bowl.
Step 7 - Add olive oil and mix well to combine.
Step 8 - Season to taste with a pinch of salt. Wait to stir in lemon juice until right before serving.
Step 9 - Spoon about half of the Za'atar Salsa Verde over fish right when it comes out of the oven.
Step 10 - Reserve remaining for spooning over individual fillets when plated.
