How to Make Lemon-Dill Slow-Roasted Salmon

1. Preheat Oven

Adjust your oven rack to the middle position and preheat your oven to 250°F.

2. Prepare Seasoning Mixture

In a small bowl, mix together the packed brown sugar, 1 teaspoon kosher salt, dry mustard, and granulated garlic. Sprinkle the seasoning mixture evenly over the salmon, making sure to coat all sides.

3. Roast Salmon

Place the seasoned salmon, flesh side up, in a 13x9-inch baking dish. Slide the dish into the preheated oven and let the salmon roast for 55-60 minutes. The salmon is done when the center is still slightly translucent and the thickest part registers 125°F for a perfect medium-rare.

4. Prepare Oil Mixture

While the salmon is roasting, combine the extra-virgin olive oil, chopped fresh dill, grated lemon zest, lemon juice, and the remaining 0.5 teaspoon kosher salt in a bowl.

5. Finish and Serve

Once the salmon is cooked, remove the dish from the oven and pour the dill and lemon oil mixture over the top. Let the salmon rest for about 5 minutes. Use a spatula to gently portion the salmon onto a serving platter, and spoon over any juices left in the dish.
