Ingredients
  

  • fresh salmon fillet with skin
  • garlic cloves
  • white wine
  • fresh rosemary branches (optional)
  • olive oil
  • kosher salt

Instructions
 

  • Cut the garlic in slices, enough to cover the whole salmon.
  • Spread the oil to cover the entire fish.
  • Spread the kosher salt on the fish.
  • arrange a layer of garlic slice covering the entire fish.
  • In an oven dish, place the rosemary branches in a thin layer (if using).
  • Carefully place the salmon with the garlic facing down. Some garlic slices will fall, but most will stick to the fish due to the oil.
  • pour the wine to cover up to at least half the fish height.
  • Put the fish in an oven preheated to 180°C (360°F) for 35 minutes. Don't let it stay there more as the salmon will dry up. If the fillet is thinner, take it out even at 30 minutes.
  • Times may vary from oven to oven, try adjusting from time to time. Also, frozen fish will tend to be drier, use fresh when possible.
  • When ready, take out of the oven and serve immediately, use a spatula to take the salmon out, keeping as much of the garlic slices as possible. Fish out fallen slices and put on the served fish. Throw away the rosemary.
