Instructions

  1. Step 1

    Preheat oven to 450°F. Line a sheet pan with parchment paper.

  2. Step 2

    Pat salmon dry with paper towels. Place skin-side down on the sheet pan.

  3. Step 3

    Stir together yogurt, tandoori spice, lemon juice, and garlic in a small bowl.

  4. Step 4

    Spread tandoori mixture evenly over the top of each salmon fillet.
