Salmon is simple to roast for a quick meal.

Heat oven to 425 F. Line a baking sheet with foil.

Rub salmon all over with 2 teaspoons oil. Roast skin side down on foil-lined baking sheet until fish is cooked through, about 12 minutes. After 10 minutes, check if fish flakes easily with fork. If it doesn't, continue baking for 2 more minutes.

Using a metal spatula, lift salmon off skin and place salmon on serving plate. Discard skin. Sprinkle salmon with herbs and serve.

• Two 5-ounce pieces salmon with skin
• 2 teaspoons extra-virgin olive oil
• 1 tablespoon chopped chives
• 1 tablespoon fresh tarragon leaves (optional)
