I suggest slow roasting it. It's very difficult to overcook it that way. I do it on about 250 for 15-20 minutes on a cedar plank, but you can use a baking sheet.

Here's an article on it. He does it at 200.

Trust me on this. It will melt in your mouth.

Under the broiler, 7-10 minutes.

I would also make a simple little glaze out of olive oil, dijon mustard and rosemary to drizzle over about halfway through.

Just put in a dish 350 oven for about ten minutes. Check it and don't Overcooked. Salmon should be medium cooked. Nothing hard or fancy. Just watchit. Lower the temperature if it scares you and just go a bit longer.

Can't really tell from the thickness but I would top with some lemon slices and bake at 450 for about 10 minutes

Damn, I don't wanna sound gauche, but I've always baked it at 350 for around twenty minutes. It's always stupid flaky and totally juicy.

I cook salmon probably once every two weeks, and love it. I've made it for several people, it's never come out overcooked.

There's a different texture with the slow cook method. Lots of ways work fine with salmon. Slow roast is one of my faves and if you're not a fish cooking person, it's a good place to start. Holds the color as well.

Hopefully it's of Monday night's salmon and not Tuesday's excrement.

Glad it worked for you. There are two sauces I use for it in the recipe thread. Just posted them recently.

Last night I had some fresh salmon. Drizzled a mix of minced garlic, butter, and evoo. Put on grill at ~325 for 5 minutes each side. Also cooked some red potatoes with a onion soup mix and olive oil. Lima beans and dinner roll finished off this delicious fish. I have a pic but don't know how to upload from photobucket mobile.

One of the nice things about salmon is that is has so much fat in it you have to be an idiot to overcook it. It stays moist way past the point that tuna would turn to building material.

I know I'm late to the dance, but.....


salmon fillets, skin intact, weighing about 5 lb. total
3 lg. onions, peeled & thinly sliced
1 large lemon, thinly sliced
1/2 c. olive oil
3 lg. garlic cloves, minced
large pinch red pepper flakes

Preheat the oven to 350°F. Rinse the salmon fillets and pat dry. loosely wrap in aluminum foil like pockets with the onions and lemons on top. Mix the olive oil and garlic; brush liberally over the fish. Fold over the edges of the foil to seal in the fish and bake in the preheated oven for 25-35 minutes, or until the fish flakes when touched with a fork. Remove and serve with the Lemon Parsley Sauce.



LEMON-PARSLEY SAUCE:

1/2 c. butter
1 tbsp. fresh lemon juice
2 garlic cloves, mashed
1/4 c. chopped fresh parsley

Melt the butter in a small saucepan and stir in the lemon juice, garlic and parsley. Blend well and stir over low heat for several minutes. Serve with the baked salmon.
Makes about 1/2 cup.

As no one has mentioned the manner already, then poach it. Slow simmer of water with white wine and a bouquet garni. If you know how to make a buerre blanc add diced radish and dill finely chopped. If not top with a maltaise sauce(Hollondaise) with orange for the citrus element.
