The typical baking time for salmon depends on the thickness of the fillet and the oven temperature, but generally it ranges from about 10 to 20 minutes.

• For standard salmon fillets baked at 375°F (190°C), the common recommendation is to bake for 12 to 15 minutes until the salmon is opaque and flakes easily with a fork

. Thicker fillets may need closer to 15 minutes, while thinner ones can be done in around 12 minutes

• Another guideline is to bake salmon for about 4 to 5 minutes per half-inch of thickness at 375°F, which often translates to roughly 10 to 15 minutes total

• If baking a larger side of salmon (around 2 pounds), it typically takes 15 to 20 minutes at 375°F

• Internal temperature is a good indicator of doneness: 120°F to 130°F for medium-rare, 135°F to 145°F for well-done salmon

. Salmon is done when it flakes easily and is opaque, with a slightly translucent center if you prefer it medium-rare

• Baking at a moderate temperature like 375°F helps keep the salmon moist and prevents overcooking

In summary, bake salmon at 375°F for about 12 to 15 minutes, adjusting time based on thickness and desired doneness. Use a fork to check if it flakes easily or an instant-read thermometer for precision.
