Step-by-Step Instructions for Herb Crusted Salmon
- Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking pan with foil or parchment paper.
- In a mixing bowl, combine minced garlic, chopped parsley, chopped basil, and olive oil, stirring until well blended.
- On one side of the prepared baking pan, scatter whole cherry tomatoes. Drizzle with balsamic vinegar and olive oil, then season with salt and pepper.
- Place the salmon fillets on the opposite side of the baking pan. Season with salt and pepper and spoon the herb mixture over each fillet.
- Transfer the pan to the oven and bake for about 20 minutes until the salmon is pale pink and flakes easily.
- After 20 minutes, check salmon for doneness. It should be light pink in the center and tomatoes should be soft.
- Carefully remove the baking pan from the oven, plate, and serve immediately.
