Help, needing iinspiration for my slab of wild salmon sitting in my fridge... wondering if anyone has any yummy suggestions as I usually just put lemon slices on it and bake it, which is delicious but.... just seeing what other people do

My favorite way to cook salmon is top with mayo and pepperjack cheese. Then wrap in foil and bake until almost done. Pull back the foil and let the cheese brown.

That and just marinating in terryaki are our usuals.

rub with oil, sea salt and pepper. Bake at 425 for 15 minutes.
Poach with dill and tarragon in the water
Fry in olive oil and serve on a bed of greens. Use bits in pan, and add honey and balsamic vinegar to it and pour over salmon and greens.

Our favourite is to spread it lightly with dijon mustard, then sprinkle it with cajun spices. Bake it uncovered at 375 for 17 minutes.

I do a butter, dijon, and lemon juice sauce and serve it with crispy roasted potatoes and sauteed spinach. Sauce poured over everything!

My favorite and easy method is to brush on some soy sauce and toasted sesame oil (it should look dark, not the light colored stuff) and add some fresh grated pepper and bake in the oven. It turns out fantastic!

Simmer gently in chicken broth with some lemon, rosemary, peppercorn and once done add some cornstarch to about 1c of reserved cooking liquid add cream and a little more rosemary for a sauce to serve over.

This is my favorite way because the chicken broth helps mute the "fish" taste.....that's a big deal for me because I really don't like fish even fresh wild caught salmon.

If I have yummy, fresh, wild Pacific salmon, I just roast it in butter (basically, what you do with the lemon slices), and serve with lemon wedges. It's the best way, in my opinion.

If I have salmon that has been frozen, etc. I really love sorrel sauce, it goes so well with the fish. Here's a recipe:

Sorrel is a bit hard to find, but I've started growing it because it's a perennial herb. DS loves to eat it straight out of the garden!
