- 1 whole salmon filet, about 2 to 2 ½ pounds, skin on
- 2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
- ½ teaspoon paprika
- ½ teaspoon garlic powder
- ½ teaspoon onion powder
- ½ teaspoon kosher salt
- ¼ teaspoon black pepper
- 1 cup onion bacon jam
- Fresh parsley, chopped, for garnish
- Chives, chopped, for garnish
Position the oven rack in the center of the oven. Preheat oven to 400°F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or aluminum foil and lightly spray with nonstick cooking spray.
Place the salmon filet skin-side down on the prepared baking sheet. Pat the surface of the salmon dry with a paper towel. Drizzle the salmon with olive oil and use your hands or a brush to evenly coat the surface.
In a small bowl, combine paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, kosher salt, and black pepper. Sprinkle the seasoning evenly over the salmon and gently press it into the surface.
Spoon the bacon jam over the top of the salmon. Use the back of a spoon or an offset spatula to spread it into a thin, even layer across the entire filet, edge to edge.
Bake for 15 to 18 minutes, or until the thickest part of the salmon flakes easily with a fork. For medium doneness, cook until the internal temperature reaches 130°F.
Remove the salmon from the oven and let it rest for 2 to 3 minutes. Garnish with chopped parsley and chives if desired.
