- Ensure the salmon is fresh and at room temperature before you begin cooking for more even broiling.
- Marinate the salmon in the lemon juice, garlic, and olive oil mixture for at least 15-20 minutes to enhance the flavor.
- Preheat the broiler and adjust the oven rack so that the salmon is about 6 inches from the heat source.
- Keep an eye on the salmon while it broils, as broiler intensities can vary and the cooking time might need adjustment.
- For extra flavor, consider adding some fresh herbs like dill or parsley to the lemon-garlic mixture.
- Use a meat thermometer to check that the internal temperature of the salmon reaches 145°F (63°C) for optimal doneness.
