GRILLED LEMON-GARLIC SALMON
A lot of people fish here on the shore of Lake Michigan, so I've developed quite a few recipes for it, including this grilled salmon recipe. I love it, and so do my friends and family.

Steps:
- Heat oven to 375 degrees F.
- Make the lemon-garlic sauce. In a small bowl or measuring cup, mix together the lemon juice, lemon zest, extra virgin olive oil, garlic, oregano, paprika and black pepper. Give the sauce a good whisk.
- Prepare a sheet pan lined with a large piece of foil (should be large enough to fold over salmon). Brush top of the foil with extra virgin olive oil.
- Now, pat salmon dry and season well on both sides with kosher salt. Place it on the foiled sheetpan. Top with lemon garlic sauce (make sure to spread the sauce evenly.)
- Fold foil over the salmon (seam-side up). Bake for 15 to 20 minutes until salmon is almost completely cooked through at the thickest part (cooking time will vary based on the thickness of your fish. If your salmon is thinner, check several minutes early to ensure your salmon does not overcook. If your piece is very thick, 1 1/2 or more inches, it may take a bit longer.)
- Carefully remove from oven and open foil to uncover the top of the salmon. Place under the broiler briefly, about 3 minutes or so. Watch closely as it broils to make sure it doesn't overcook and the garlic does not burn.)

LEMON GARLIC SALMON
Fresh salmon needs very little preparation. These salmon fillets are cooked in good, sweet butter and minced garlic, and then sprinkled with a little lemon juice. If you'd like a little more kick and a fancy presentation, caramelize onions and serve them atop the cooked salmon.

Tips:
- Choose the right salmon steaks: Look for steaks that are about 1 inch thick and have a mild, fresh smell. Avoid steaks that are thin or have a strong, fishy odor.
- Season the salmon steaks well: Season the steaks with salt, pepper, and any other desired spices before cooking. This will help to enhance the flavor of the fish.
- Cook the salmon steaks over medium heat: Cooking the steaks over medium heat will help to prevent them from overcooking and becoming dry. Cook the steaks for about 4-5 minutes per side, or until they are cooked through.
- Baste the salmon steaks with the lemon-garlic sauce: Basting the steaks with the lemon-garlic sauce while they are cooking will help to keep them moist and flavorful. You can also add a little bit of white wine or chicken broth to the sauce for extra flavor.
- Serve the salmon steaks immediately: Serve the salmon steaks immediately with your favorite sides. Some good options include roasted vegetables, mashed potatoes, or rice.
