    I like to drizzle mine with a little honey before I bake/grill it. Just about 5-6 grams of honey makes it just a little sweet without the calories.

    wild salmon has 2/3 the calories of farmed salmon.

    My favorite way is:

    In a pan sauté diced mushroom, bell peppers and tomatoes (Are or switch vegetable as you wish, but keep the tomatoes) until the veggies get a bit soft and start realeasing juices. Season with sal and pepper, dried herbs of you choice (oregano and basil is a favorite of mine).

    Put salmon on foil and pour the veggie mixture on top. close th efoil to make a papillote around the salmon. 15-25 minutes at 425 in the oven. it's amazing!

    I'm boring. I like mine well seasoned and then seared hard on the skin side. The meat side only gets kissed by the heat.

    Serve over rice pilaf with lemon or a lemon/caper/butter sauce. Some kind of veg sauteed in butter or bacon fat on the side.

    Season the filet. Coat the bottom of a glass baking dish with a tbsp of olive oil and some white wine. Place the filet in skin side down and dump some fresh chopped dill on her. Bake it. Bangin good.

    Salt, pepper and paprika all over, then toss it skin side down in a hot pan with a little butter. Wait until the skin side is crispy, then flip and cook a little on the other side. Finish off with a little squirt of lemon on the plate! So good!

    Wrap it in tinfoil on top of lemon slices and topped with salt and pepper then BBQ on 300 to 450 for 25 mins! No need for added oil because it cooks in the natural fats

    All the above are great, as there is nothing better than salmon. for a different dish, I have been into the following:
    • Grate 1 tbsp fresh ginger
    • Mince 3 cloves garlic
    • Add 1/4 cup rice wine vinegar
    • Add 1/4 cup soy sauce
    • 1 heaping TBSP of korean chili powder
    • 2 TBSP honey or to taste.

    Marinate salmon for 15 minutes, pan sear halfway. Add marinade and reduce until it thickens, spoon over salmon while cooking. Remove salmon, serve with remaining sauce. Yum!!

    Cedar planked salmon! (or other type of wood as well). The downside of course is that you need the wooden plank, and a good quality one can be a little expensive (about 20 dollars), although they can definitely be used 4-5 times, depending on how well you treat them and if you enjoy the stroger smoky flavor.

    Brush on some honey mustard and bake
    Brush on some soy and brown sugar marinade and bake with red onions
    Brush on some Teriyaki sauce and bake (serve with a bit of rice and a ton of veggies in a bowl)
    Season with Italian seasoning and a bit of butter and bake

    Always serve with a bunch of veggies with broccoli, asparagus, or brussel sprouts!

    Chilli and coriander marinade overnight then bake in a foil parcel until almost cooked through. By the time I finish serving it up the residual heat has finished the cooking process leaving it perfectly soft. Alternatively just bake plain in foil but serve with a creme fraiche/watercress sauce over it (and a couple of new potatoes, green beans, carrots and broccoli). Drooling now

    My favorite way is in a crock pot. I marinade a salmon steak in zesty Italian dressing. then you put it in a crock pot with a chopped onion and a chopped yellow red and orange pepper. Add salt, pepper, the juice of a lemon, and half a can of beer. cook on high for 3-4 hours.

    It is great served with rice or quinoa.

    I take the skin off, and cook it separately to make crispy salmon skin.

    Then cover the salmon with a spoon of mayonnaise, sprinkle with seasoning (sometimes paprika, sometimes thai spices... whatever), then bake it - as long as it's done medium rare and not overcooked. I hate overcooked salmon.
