Can I use frozen salmon?

Absolutely, Just thaw it completely in the fridge overnight first, and pat it super dry with paper towels. Frozen salmon tends to release more water, so you might need an extra minute or two of cooking time.

How do I adjust for thicker fillets?

If your salmon's over 1 inch thick, add 2-3 minutes to the bake time. Still check early though - nobody likes overcooked salmon. The fork test never lies.

What can I substitute for paprika?

No paprika? No problem. Try chili powder for heat, smoked salt for depth, or just skip it. The lemon and garlic carry plenty of flavor on their own. For more ideas on flavor substitutions, check out this guide on spicy foods .

Can I Use Other Vegetables?

Of course, Asparagus and zucchini work beautifully - just cut them into similar-sized pieces. Denser veggies like carrots need 5 extra minutes, while delicate ones like green beans cook faster.

Is This Recipe Gluten-Free?

Yep! Naturally gluten-free, but always check your spice labels to be safe. Some spice blends contain sneaky additives.
