SAGE-RUBBED SALMON

• Preheat oven to 375°. Mix first 4 ingredients; rub onto flesh side of salmon. Cut into 6 portions., In a large cast-iron skillet, heat oil over medium heat. Add salmon, skin side down; cook 5 minutes. Transfer skillet to oven; bake just until fish flakes easily with a fork, about 10 minutes.

GRILLED SALMON WITH SAGE

Steps:

• Wipe the salmon fillet dry with paper towels. Combine the juice of one lemon, mustard, two tablespoons olive oil and pepper in a small bowl. Chop six sage leaves and add them. Mix thoroughly and spread the mixture on both sides of the salmon. Allow to marinate about 30 minutes.
• Meanwhile, preheat grill or broiler. Heat the remaining olive oil in a small frying pan and saute the sage leaves until they are crisp. Drain them on paper towels.
• Season the salmon with salt and grill or broil the fillet about six minutes on each side or until it reaches the desired degree of doneness. Sprinkle with sauteed sage leaves, garnish with remaining lemon cut into quarters and serve.

ALDER GRILLED FRESH ALASKAN KING SALMON WITH A LIGHT JUNIPER AND SAGE MARINADE

Steps:

• Preheat a grill.
• Whisk together celery seed, garlic, lemon pepper, onion, chopped sage leaves, thyme, oil, balsamic vinegar, wine, plum vinegar, and a dash of water (quantities of liquid and dry spice ingredients are best adjusted to individual taste). Place alder chips over coals of grill to add flavorful smoke (mesquite may be substituted). Dredge fillets lightly in marinade then rub in juniper berries and a few whole sage leaves. Place on hot grill (medium high if controllable). Cook for about 10 minutes per side. (Salmon is best cooked until it is still moist, but flesh starts to flake easily with a fork and translucency is gone. Salmon is a bit forgiving, so if it's not quite done, put it back on the grill...but don't cook it until it dries out!) Garnish with lemon slices.
