Recipe Instructions

Step 1
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Line a baking pan with aluminum foil.
Step 2
Drizzle olive oil onto the prepared pan in an area slightly larger than the salmon fillet. Place tomatoes in a layer on the oiled foil; sprinkle with salt and pepper. Layer basil over top and place salmon on the basil. Squeeze lemon over salmon and season again with salt and pepper.
Step 3
Bake in the preheated oven until fish flakes easily with a fork, 30 to 40 minutes.
