Butter and garlic marinade. Cook slow and low.

Do you want to eat them as steaks, or incorperate them into a larger meal? I have a crazy good recipe for Garlic Salmon Fettucini.

Salmon doesn't need much of anything. Just salt. Smoked is always a good option. Mashed potatoes as side. Sour cream mixed with relish and lemon juice.

Spread a thick layer of mayonaise on it, then salt & pepper. Add about a 1/4 cup of chopped red onion. Wrap in aluminum foil with 2 ice cubes. As soon as it flakes, take it off the fire. Nothing worse than dry salmon.

I agree. Great way to cook salmon

Salmon is the best fish out there, I haven't tried anything that comes even close IMO.

I use a marinade of soy sauce, olive oil, a little worcheshire (sp?) sauce, garlic and parsley that works great for grilling. marinade for 30 minutes MAX. Grill about 10 minutes per side on med-high.

Halibut is great the way I mentioned also.

Always wrap and cook Salmon in foil.

Another easy one, salt, lemon pepper, and fresh lemon slices on top. Grapefruit works well also, or any citrus you happen to have on hand. Light and refreshing, without added fats.

Always wrap and cook Salmon in foil.
I disagree, especially if it's a whole salmon.

For any salmon lovers - copper river salmon is available right now if you can get it If you have never had some you owe it to yourself to try some, it is absolutely fantastic. Yeah it's pricey but considering it's only available for a few weeks out of the year it's worth it for a special treat.

Did some just two nights ago...salt and pepper, few lemon slices on top, skin side down, medium indirect heat. Yum!

If you've got a good thick salmon steak and you want to try something different cut a pocket in it, stuff it with goat cheese and asparagus spears, wrap in parchment paper then bake. Very good but very rich.

First make sure it's Pacific salmon, Not Atlantic or farm raised. Cook on the grill with whatever marinade you like. Do not wrap in foil. If you;re worried about it drying it out, watch it closely and buy Copper River!

I always add a 6 pack of Sierra Nevada Pale Ale to my salmon dinners. Just season as suggested above and add about 1 ounce of beer per filet. Make sure to drink the remainder along with the meal! ;)

Just don't burn it!

Grilled with lemon, butter, some shallots, some capers and chopped fresh dill. Salt and pepper to taste...
