Preparation Steps
- Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
- Lightly grease a baking dish with olive oil or line it with parchment paper.
- In a medium mixing bowl, combine Boursin cheese, minced garlic, lemon zest, and lemon juice. Add half of your olive oil or melted butter. Stir until smooth.
- Pat salmon fillets dry, drizzle with remaining olive oil or melted butter, and season generously with salt and black pepper.
- Place the salmon fillets in the baking dish, skin side down, and spread the Boursin mixture evenly over each fillet.
- Bake the salmon for 15-20 minutes until the flesh is opaque and flakes easily with a fork. Internal temperature should reach 145°F (63°C).
- Let the salmon rest for about 2 minutes, then garnish with chopped parsley before serving.
