    I like to drizzle it with olive oil, fresh dill (or dill paste if you don't have fresh) and fresh lemon slices. Bake in 400 degree oven for 25-30 min depending on size, and enjoy! Citrus and salmon go really well together.

    I think Salmon has about 200 calories per serving? The frozen ones I get that's what it says. A lot depends what you put on it though.

    25-30 mins! Oh man. 8 minutes under the highest temp on broil.

    Sprinkle of sea sald, dried dill, lemon. 4 minutes one side. flip, 4 minutes the other side. Voila!

    I cook fresh salmon on the stove, low flame and sprinkle with garlic powder and salt-free Mrs. Dash garlic and herb seasoning. I like the skin to get a little crispy! And thats it!!

    I wrap mine in an aluminum foil packet, cover with lemon-pepper 30 minute marinade, and bake at 425 for 30 minutes (fridge) or 45 minutes (frozen). It flakes easily and melts in your mouth.

    Mix about a tbsp of dijon mustard with brown sugar and spread on top of the salmon.
    Wrap in foil and bake.

    Put it on a square of foil, top with finely sliced ginger, garlic, spring onions, carrot, capsicum (bell pepper) and zuccini.
    Mix a tsp of each: sesame oil, soy sauce, lime or lemon juice and pour over the salmon.
    Bake in the oven or steam in a stove top steamer pan.

    The calories will depend on the size of your salmon, you can find raw salmon in the database, just calculate the weight and what you add to it.

    I'm talking a whole fresh salmon, not those pre-packaged, par cooked "8-10 minutes to cook" pieces that you find in the frozen food section, lol.

    Hi,
    I love to use a sauce that I invented for both Salmon and tuna steaks. Cook the salmon/tuna in foil in the oven and while it is cooking mix together two table spoons of natural yoghurt, one table spoon of diet mayonaise, the rind of a lemon, about a table spoonful of the juice and as much fresh dill chopped as you like. When you have combined the ingredients chill until the fish is ready. Serve a dollop on top of the salmon or tuna. There is 105 calories in this quantity of sauce and 258 caloreis in about 120g portion of salmon. Served with a couple of new potatoes and salad it makes a filling tasty meal.

    Mix a teaspoon of pesto with a tablespoon of grated mozzarella and just under half a cup of wholemeal or granary breadcrumbs, press this mixture on top of the salmon and bake in the oven, I baked mine from frozen for 30 mins.

    I usually do salmon either with dill or lemon pepper cooked in a foil packet in the oven. I've also used fajita seasoning which gives it a nice spice. For salmon burgers I grill them & top them with mango salsa, spinach & a little feta cheese-delicious!!!

    I love to make me some salmon tartar!

    Fillet the skin off then put the fish in the freezer for 10-15 mintues to firm it up. Take it out and cut it into small cubes. Then add, lime or lemon, salt, pepper, some minced onion or shallots, fresh chopped corriander. And the secret ingredient: sesame oil.

    SO delicious.

    I like my salmon with some kick so I let it sit in a little A1 Chicago Steakhouse marinade overnight. It's not too bad calorie wise as long as you don't go overboard with the marinade. Serve that with a nice light ceasar salad and your taste buds will be cheering!

    Well, I grill as much as I can, all year round (harder than is sounds in Minnesota winters). For salmon, I like to grill it on a cedar plank. It really adds a lot of flavor to the fish. You don't need much beyond that except for maybe some lemon juice while it's cooking. Very simple and delicious. I serve it with a pinneaple salsa. Yum!

    i cook mine on the grill with a little white wine (i like to use mascato but any will work) and mckormics salmon seasoning. put the salmon, skin side down, in a foil "tray" and put enough wine to cover the bottom (& maybe a splash more) you don't want it to dry out & sprinkle with the seasoning. no need to flip it will cook through & the skin should come off easily when the fish is done.
