Steps:
- Set an oven rack about 6 inches from the heat source and preheat the oven's broiler.
- Rub salmon down in olive oil. Cut your lemon in half and set 1 half off to the side. Cut the other half into 1/4-inch thick slices. Lay them on a broiler pan and lay the salmon on top of them. You just need enough to cover the bottom of the salmon so it's not touching the pan. Sprinkle with dill, garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Lightly squeeze the remainder of the lemon over the whole salmon; not too much, you don't want your seasoning to run off.
- Cook in the center of the preheated oven on a low broil until easily flaked with a fork but still juicy, 15 to 20 minutes.

Tips:
- To ensure the salmon is cooked evenly, use a sharp knife to make shallow cuts in the skin before baking.
- For a crispy skin, pat the salmon dry with paper towels before cooking.
- Season the salmon generously with salt and pepper. This will help to enhance the flavor of the fish.
- If you don't have fresh lemons, you can use bottled lemon juice. However, fresh lemons will give the dish a brighter flavor.
- Use fresh dill for the best flavor. If you don't have fresh dill, you can use dried dill, but use only half the amount.
- Serve the salmon immediately after it is cooked. This will ensure that the fish is moist and flaky.
Conclusion:
Salmon with Lemon and Dill is a simple and delicious dish that is perfect for any occasion. The bright flavors of the lemon and dill complement the rich flavor of the salmon, and the crispy skin adds a touch of texture. This dish is sure to please everyone at your table.
