    💡 Tips for Lemon Herb Salmon

    • • Let meat rest for 5 minutes after cooking to keep it juicy.
    • • Don't let garlic burn — add it after other aromatics and cook briefly.
    • • Roll citrus on the counter before juicing to get more juice out.
    • • Pat fish dry with paper towels before cooking for a crispier skin.
