Kittencal's Convection Oven Baked Salmon Fillets

Step 1: Preheat oven to 450 degrees F (convection bake) -- your oven must be very hot before placing the salmon in to bake. Rinse the salmon well under cold water then pat dry using paper towels.

Step 2: Place a rack in a baking sheet, then grease the rack with cooking spray. Place the salmon fillets on the rack skin side facing up.

Step 3: Using a pastry brush, brush the skin side of the salmon fillet generously with mayonnaise (make certain to coat generously with mayo!). Sprinkle with garlic powder, seasoned salt then lemon pepper. Turn over and repeat with mayonnaise and spices (make sure the skin is facing down for baking). *** at this point you can cover an refrigerate until ready to bake.

Step 4: Bake the salmon (convection bake 450 degrees F) for 20 minutes or until cooked -- do not turn the salmon convection air cooking will cook both sides of the fish -- the cooking time will vary depending on the size of your fillets, do not overbake or the salmon will be dry and not taste good!) baking time is for fillets about 1-inch thick or a little more).

Step 5: Using a flat spatula slide under fillet/s and remove to a plate. Serve with lemon wedges (any leftover cold salmon makes FANTASTIC salmon salad!).
