  • Place salmon (skin-side down if using skin-on) on a large rimmed baking sheet. Sprinkle with paprika, 1/8 teaspoon salt and pepper and drizzle with 1 tablespoon oil. Bake until the salmon is just opaque and easily flakes with a fork, about 20 minutes. 

  • Combine the remaining 3/4 cup oil, shallot, garlic, cilantro, dill, parsley, oregano, lemon zest, lemon juice and the remaining 1/2 teaspoon salt in a blender; blend until smooth. Serve 1/4 cup sauce over the salmon (reserve the remaining sauce for another use).

To make ahead

Refrigerate sauce (Step 3) in an airtight container for up to 1 week.
