Preheat oven to 425F.
In a rimmed plate, season the salmon with salt and pepper on both sides.
Then, add in the cilantro chimichurri, rub it on all sides, and let it marinate approximately 15-20 mins. Remove the fillets from the marinade, and arrange them on a cast iron braiser, or baking sheet.
Bake for 15-20 minutes. Then, broil for 2-5 minutes if you like it crispier.
