Oven Baked Salmon 焗三文鱼

What on our dinner table tonight? Oven Baked Salmon!

Salmon is one of our favorite fish dish even when we were back home in Malaysia. However, back then we seldom have the opportunity to buy fresh Salmon at wet market. For us to eat nice salmon we need to patron fancy Japanese Restaurant and we can't seem to afford to do that often.

But ever since we moved here, Salmon seem to be a regular dish, whenever salmon on offer I will grab them. Salmon is full with healthy proteins and omega-3 fatty acids and is really a rich and healthy meal to serve as dinner.

The best way to cook salmon is also the simplest way to cook salmon with just merely sprinkle some seasoning and chuck into oven and baked!
