2 Tbsp of fresh lemon juice
Lemon slices (for effect :)

Preheat the oven to 450 F. Line a rimmed baking sheet with foil.
1. In a small bowl, mix together: 2 Tbsp chopped parsley, 2-3 pressed cloves garlic, Tbsp Dijon mustard, tsp salt, tsp of pepper, cup of olive oil and 2 Tbsp of lemon juice.
2. Slice salmon into even portions. Lay them onto a lined baking dish with the skin-side-down.
