Directions

1. Preheat the oven to 350°F. Grease a small baking pan or casserole pan with cooking spray.
2. Rinse the salmon fillets with cold water, pat dry, and remove any pin bones with long nose pliers if needed. Optionally, cut the fillets into large serving pieces. Place them in the pan, skin side down, and sprinkle with salt.
