Grill or broil it one of the following ways-





-Place filet in tin foil or pot. Squeeze two lemons over it, sprinkle with cracked pepper and rub it with olive oil, put in a couple large slices of onion and let marinade for two hours. Put on HOT grill with a couple lemon slices and the onion on top for ten minutes or until done. Do NOT attempt to turn it. This is simple and fast and tastes great.





-if you have a charcoal grill you can also try barbecue sauce. I know it sounds odd but its good. Marinade it the same way as above with lemon and before you put it on the grill put a light layer of sauce on it and then throw some wood chips on the coals to give it a light smoke flavor. This is actually really good cold especially as part of a salad. I make my own barbecue sauce for fish with maple syrup, paprika, lemon pepper, and garlic powder.Do you know a good recipes for salmon?

1. Put 1/3 cup of the mint in a medium glass or stainless-steel bowl. In a small stainless-steel saucepan, bring the water to a simmer over moderate heat. Add the sugar and stir until completely dissolved. Stir in the vinegar, garlic, and 1/4 teaspoon of the salt. Pour the mixture over the mint in the bowl. Let sit 15 minutes.

Here is a simple yet delicious recipe:





I use salmon filets. No bones. Put a little olive oil on a baking pan and rub it around. Place salmon filets on the pan, sprinkle with S%26amp;P if you wish. Spread some dijon mustard over the filets, any kind of mustard will do, but I like the bite of a dijon. Then add some minced garlic and finely chopped onion on top of the mustard. Bake at 375 for 15-20 minutes. Check it at 15 minutes and if it's flaky inside and not too moist, it should be done. Enjoy!
