SALMON WITH LEMON AND DILL
This is a wonderful (and easy) recipe I got from my Aunt. The flavors of lemon and dill really complement the fish. I like to use wild Alaskan salmon for this recipe, but any salmon will work. I usually don't measure, so these are all estimates. Play with the ingredients to suit your own tastes!

Steps:
- Pre-heat oven to 350 degrees fahrenheit.
- Remove any visible bones and cut off the head and tail (if it hasn't already been done for you) If using a poacher place the tray in the poacher, add 1/4 cup water and place your salmon in the tray skin side down.
- If you do not have a fish poacher (how many of us do?) you can use any oven safe pan large enough to hold your fish.
- Just crumple and crinkle a medium sized sheet of tin foil and place your fish on the foil skin side down.
- Add enough water to just come to the edge of the foil without spilling onto the fish (approx 1/3 cup).
- On top of the fish sprinkle all ingredients.
- Cover with lid or tin foil.
- Cook for 12-20 min's.
- For RARE fish, cook just until white liquid emerges from fish (this is the cooked fish oil).
- It will be pinky white on the outside and peachy pink inside.
- For more well done fish, cook until fish is a pinky white color all the way through.
- Place on a platter to serve.
- Leave onions, capers and dill on the fish.
- Slice lemons on the side for those who like fresh lemon juice.
- This salmon is great served with rice and steamed veggies or a salad.
BROILED SALMON WITH MUSTARD AND LEMON
In this simple salmon recipe, a quick stint under the broiler transforms smooth Dijon mustard into a savory, caramelized crust, and a squeeze of fresh lemon juice adds just the right brightness and tang to the rich, sweet fish. Covering the baking pan with a protective layer of aluminum foil helps with the cleanup, meaning you can cook dinner and wash up in under 30 minutes.

Steps:
- Position one oven rack 6 inches from the broiler heat source then heat the broiler. Season the salmon fillets all over with ½ teaspoon salt and a couple of grinds of pepper and place them on an aluminum foil-lined sheet pan, skin side down.
- In a small bowl, whisk the oil and mustard until well mixed. Brush the tops and sides of the salmon with this mustard mixture.
- Broil until the salmon is opaque with a deep brown crust, about 6 to 8 minutes for medium-rare. (The center of the fillets will be dark pink, if you pierce one with a paring knife and take a look.) If your fillets are thinner, reduce cooking time by 1 to 2 minutes. If you prefer more well-done fish, add 1 or 2 minutes to the cooking time.
- Squeeze a lemon wedge all over the cooked salmon fillets, then serve salmon with more lemon wedges on the side.

Steps:
- Set an oven rack about 6 inches from the heat source and preheat the oven's broiler.
- Rub salmon down in olive oil. Cut your lemon in half and set 1 half off to the side. Cut the other half into 1/4-inch thick slices. Lay them on a broiler pan and lay the salmon on top of them. You just need enough to cover the bottom of the salmon so it's not touching the pan. Sprinkle with dill, garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Lightly squeeze the remainder of the lemon over the whole salmon; not too much, you don't want your seasoning to run off.
- Cook in the center of the preheated oven on a low broil until easily flaked with a fork but still juicy, 15 to 20 minutes.
