What is your favorite way to prepare salmon?

Answer 1

This is a super easy way to fix an incredibly wonderful salmon dinner: mix up a sauce of mayonnaise and lemon juice. I squeeze in some garlic and a little salt and pepper. Most people just use the juice from the garlic but I either squeeze it through a garlic press or chop it on a chopping block and use the whole garlic clove as well as the juice because I love garlic and it is a natural anti-biotic and disease fighter. I mix all that together. Spread it over the salmon. Wrap it in foil or cover it very tightly and bake it at about 350 degrees just until it is tender. Most people over-cook fish, which makes it tough and yukky. Oh, I also slice onions very thin and put them on top of the salmon before sealing it up for baking. I make LOTS of the sauce because I bake some potatoes, carrots and green beans in the oven before baking the salmon and I love the sauce over the veggies, as well. Mmmmmm. You can prepare most fish like that. Guess what I'm preparing for dinner tonight? ! Yup! FISH. Sometimes I even prepare it that way in my crock pot.
And, of course, serve it with a glass of red wine, which studies show is better for you than the white wine - it's heavenly. Here are some really great web sites to check out:

Answer 2

Poached in French Onion Soup Mix
My dad was a chef before he retired.
He would mix a package of French onion soup mix with just enough water to dampened then spread all over the fish...usually a 2 to 5 lb fillet. He would then pour melted butter and lemon juice over the top and poach in the oven until done...normally about 30 minutes. He has also cooked in on the grill in a tin foil packet. Both methods work great.
It's a winner every time.

Baked Salmon

2 cloves garlic, minced
6 tablespoons light olive oil
1 teaspoon dried basil
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon ground black pepper
1 tablespoon lemon juice
1 tablespoon fresh parsley, chopped
2 (6 ounce) salmon fillets


In a medium glass bowl, prepare marinade by mixing garlic, light olive oil, basil, salt, pepper, lemon juice and parsley.

Place salmon fillets in a medium glass baking dish, and cover with the marinade.

Marinate in the refrigerator about 1 hour, turning occasionally.

Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).

Place fillets in aluminum foil, cover with marinade, and seal.

Place sealed salmon in the glass dish, and bake 35 to 45 minutes, until easily flaked with a fork.

Answer 4

I *LOVE* lemon and dill on salmon.

I like to take a nice piece, put it skin side down on a baking sheet, add a little seasoning salt.

Mix a stick of butter with a tablespoon of lemon juice, and a teaspoon of dill (fresh is best, but you can use dill weed).

Place little 'globs' of the butter mix evenly over the salmon, cover with foil and bake at 350* until done (depends on the size of salmon you start with).

READY IN 2 Hrs 20 Min

Original recipe yield: 6 servings

INGREDIENTS
1 1/2 pounds fresh salmon fillet with skin removed
1/4 cup red wine vinegar
1/4 cup olive oil
1/4 cup soy sauce
1/4 cup water
1 tablespoon lemon juice
