    I throw it on some tinfoil, rub on about a tsp of fat free mayo, and then season it with a seasoning called Lemon Dilly. Then I drizzle a little bit of lemon juice on it. Bake for around 20 mins at 350 and voila! It's SOOOOOOOOO flaky and moist and delicious when it comes out. Great for breakie, lunch and dinner alike!

    My favorite way of cooking salmon is to put it on a cedar board. Cook it on the grill outdoors. It can also be done in an oven, but right now I don't remember the temperature. The board MUST be soaked in water beforehand, so it doesn't catch on fire. But my favorite little "extra" to this is toward the end of cooking, DO let the board catch fire (on grill) and burn a little while you keep a close eye on it. This gives the salmon a real nice, light crust to the outside of the fish, while keeping the inside tender. This method has been passed down from my Native American heritage.

    I throw mine in some tin foil, add the barest amount of unsalted butter, then lemon juice, garlic powder and fresh black pepper to taste. Bake and serve over rice/soba noodles/salad or with a side of smashed cauliflower. I love this. Simple, easy and delicious.

    This is how I make mine. Yum.

    Just bookmarking my place, so I can find this again when I have time to copy down some recipe ideas!

    I like salmon with dijon mustard spread on it, then chopped fresh hebs pressed onto that (tarragon, basil chives, whatever!). Baked for maybe 20 minutes.

    We eat salmon easily 3 times per week. My 9 year old LOVES to cook it and she uses this recipe that we created:

    Put each piece of salmon in tin foil. Slice a lemon and put one slice under the piece of salmon. Then on top of the salmon we season with salt and pepper and then put a dab of lemon dill butter when we have it... drizzle with olive oil when we don't. We then use either fresh dill or fresh lemongrass and place it on the salmon... then another slice of lemon on the very top. We wrap it up in the foil and bake it for about 20 minutes at 425. SOOOOO tasty! And quite healthy!

    fresh grated ginger, bit of honey, brown sugar and light soy sauce. Only marinate for a few minutes then baste while under broiler.

    another favorite is wasabi powder. do not reconstitute with water, but a little butter and brush on baked salmon.

    I made this steamed salmon once (by mistake)... You mix soy 1 part soy sauce ( maybe a cup ) and an equal amount of water and then a little bit of sugar... Oh and minced garlic. Set this teriyaki type sauce to the side. On med/high heat, spray the pan w olive oil and when the pan is hot, place 2 salmon filets in it. You're gonna quickly sear the outside of the fish on both sides. Once it's seared, pour the teri sauce over the fish and cover the pan and then turn off the stove. The fish will steam in the Teri sauce so don't open the lid. Leave it alone for about 10 minutes and then it should be done. When you plate the fish, you can also sprinkle sesame seed nori on top.

    Like I said, I made this by mistake and it came out pretty tasty. My measurements are now exact, but now that you have the "sear, steam" idea, you could probably make it with all kinds of sauces. :)

    The easiest way I regularly make salmon is as salmon cakes!

    I put a couple of fillets in the food processor, skin and all, and chop it all up. Then I put that in a bowl and mix it with some chopped green onions, minced ginger and garlic, sesame seeds, and bread crumbs - panko is best.

    I form this into appropriate-sized patties and fry in sesame oil. I serve it with a dipping sauce made of equal parts soy sauce and rice vinegar. :) Hot sauce optional!

    There's so many different ways you can make salmon cakes.... but this is my favourite!

    I like to poach it and then broil it a little.

    I put the juice of 1/2 a lemon in a pan with a little water, then put in a little bit of Mrs. Dash. Bring to boil, put the fillet in and cook on each side. Then remove to a broiler pan for about 3 minutes each side. I squeeze a little lemon on it prior to eating, and pure yum. :)
