Preheat the oven to 425 degrees. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Pat the salmon filets dry and season with salt and pepper all over.Line up 3-4 lemon slices per piece of salmon on the parchment paper. Top each set of lemon slices with a sprig of dill and then a salmon filet. If using salmon with the skin on, place the skin side up.
