6 6-ounce salmon filets

Season the salmon with the salt and pepper. Place the salmon, skin side down, in a baking dish or on a high-rimmed baking sheet. Top the salmon with the lemon slices and add the wine to the dish or baking sheet.
Bake until the salmon is cooked through, about 12 to 15 minutes.
