    Dice the sweet red pepper into small pieces and finely chop the red onion. Set aside.

    Season the Salmon

    Place the Faroe Islands salmon fillets in the baking dish, skin-side down. Season with salt, pepper, and half of the Zhoug sauce.

  4. 6

    Add Vegetables

    Evenly distribute the diced sweet red pepper and chopped red onion over the salmon fillets.

    Bake the Salmon

    Bake in the preheated oven for approximately 15-20 minutes, or until the salmon flakes easily with a fork.
