Equipment

  • 1 Meat thermometer optional
  • 1 Brush optional
  • 1 Small bowl
  • 1 Knife and cutting board
  • 1 Serving platter or plates for presentatio

Ingredients
  

  • 1 package of Trader Joe's salmon pinwheels each package usually contains 2 pinwheels
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil for brushing
  • ½ tbsp Salt to taste
  • 1/4 tbsp Black pepper to taste
  • 1 tbsp Optional: Fresh herbs Dill or parsley, finely chopped
  • 1 tbsp Optional: Lemon slices for garnish and added flavor

Instructions
 

  • Preheat the Oven: Set your oven to 375°F (190°C). This temperature allows the salmon to cook through evenly without drying out.
  • Prepare the Baking Sheet: Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or aluminum foil for easy cleanup. This also prevents the salmon from sticking to the pan.
  • Season the Pinwheels: Brush each salmon pinwheel lightly with olive oil. Then, sprinkle both sides with salt and black pepper to taste. If you're using fresh herbs, sprinkle them over the pinwheels now.
  • Arrange on Baking Sheet: Place the salmon pinwheels on the prepared baking sheet, making sure they're not touching to ensure even cooking.
  • Cook: Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes. The cooking time may vary depending on the thickness of the pinwheels. They're done when the salmon easily flakes with a fork and reaches an internal temperature of 145°F (63°C) if you're using a meat thermometer.
  • Garnish and Serve: Once cooked, transfer the salmon pinwheels to a serving platter. If desired, garnish with lemon slices and an extra sprinkle of fresh herbs for a burst of flavor and a colorful presentation.
  • Enjoy: Serve your beautifully cooked salmon pinwheels with your choice of side dishes for a complete meal.
