- 4 salmon fillets (about 6 oz each)
- 4 tablespoons Boursin cheese (Garlic & Fine Herbs flavor)
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1 lemon, sliced for garnish
- Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Place the salmon fillets on the prepared baking sheet.
- Rub the top of each fillet lightly with olive oil. Season with salt and pepper.
- Spread one tablespoon of Boursin cheese evenly over the top surface of each salmon fillet.
- Bake for 12 to 15 minutes, or until the salmon is cooked through and flakes easily with a fork. Cooking time depends on the thickness of the fillets.
- Remove from the oven and top each fillet with a thin slice of lemon before serving.
Notes
- You can substitute the Garlic & Fine Herbs Boursin with another flavor if you prefer.
- For extra moisture, you can add a splash of white wine to the baking sheet before cooking.
- This dish pairs well with steamed asparagus or a side salad.
