Instructions
Preheat oven to 395° F (200° C)
Remove leaves from rosemary sprigs and chop roughly. (Or crunch the dried rosemary in the palm of your hand.)
In a small bowl or pestle, mash together the rosemary, garlic and sea salt to form a rough paste.
Lay a piece of foil on a baking sheet and spray lightly with oil. Lay the salmon on the foil, tucking under the thinnest 1" of the fish. Make diagonal slashes across the fish about 1" apart and 1/4" deep
Spread the garlic/rosemary paste over the fish. Squeeze on 1/4 of the lemon.
Bake the salmon for 15 minutes and check for doneness.
