OVEN-ROASTED SALMON (FROM AMERICA'S TEST KITCHEN)
Steps:
- Hold a sharp knife at a slight downward angle to the flesh and cut off the whitish, fatty portion of the belly. Cut the salmon fillet into four pieces of equal size to help ensure that they cook at the same rate. Make four or five shallow slashes along the skin side of each piece of fish, being careful not to cut into the flesh. 1. Adjust oven rack to lowest position, place rimmed baking sheet on rack, and heat oven to 500 degrees. Following step by step illustrations below, use sharp knife to remove any whitish fat from belly of fillet and cut into 4 equal pieces. Make 4 or 5 shallow slashes about an inch apart along skin side of each piece, being careful not to cut into flesh. 2. Pat salmon dry with paper towels. Rub fillets evenly with oil and season liberally with salt and pepper. Reduce oven temperature to 275 degrees and remove baking sheet. Carefully place salmon skin-side down on baking sheet. Roast until centers of thickest part of fillets are still translucent when cut into with paring knife or instant-read thermometer inserted in thickest part of fillets registers 125 degrees, 9 to 13 minutes.
