For a richer flavor, let the salmon marinate in the olive oil, herbs, and garlic for 30 minutes before broiling. Ensure the salmon fillets are patted dry before coating with oil to promote better browning. Watch the salmon closely under the broiler to prevent burning. If the herbs start to darken too quickly, lower the rack slightly or reduce the broiler setting. Serve with roasted red potatoes and steamed asparagus for a complete and balanced meal. Feel free to adjust the herbs to your liking. Thyme, rosemary, or dill would also be delicious additions.

Prepare the salmon: In a medium bowl, pour the olive oil. Rinse salmon fillets and pat completely dry with paper towels. Dip each fillet into the olive oil, ensuring both sides are well coated.
