• For the Salmon:
• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees.
• Place the salmon on a sheet pan, preferably covered in a piece of parchment or foil.
• Drizzle the salmon with the 2 tablespoons of olive oil and then sprinkle with the limes zest. Take a rasp or fine grater and grate the jalapeno over the fish as well. Finally squeeze the juice of one lime over the fish. Generously season with kosher salt.
