    Place the salmon, skin side down, on a baking sheet and season generously with salt and freshly ground black pepper. Smear about 1/3 of the herb mixture on the fish and turn it over. Slather the skin side of the fish with the remaining herb mixture and sprinkle with a little more salt and pepper.

    Place the baking sheet in the oven and bake about 25 minutes or until the salmon separates into flakes. Remove from oven and enjoy!
