| This makes enough for about 2 pounds (1 kilogram) of
fillets. BARBEQUE:
Combine all the ingredients until smooth. Brush over both sides of the
salmon steaks or fillets. Lay fish on barbecue grill, turning when sauce
browns. Brush a second coating on the top side. Fish is done when sauce on
top of fish glazes over - about 10 minutes per inch (2.5 cm) of thickness.
Serve additional sauce alongside fish at the table.
OVEN:
The above recipe and method can also be used in the oven, without
turning the fish over. Lay the salmon in a pan with the skin side down,
and pour the sauce onto the salmon. Decorating with thin slices of lemon
makes a nice decorative touch.
Salmon oven baking recipe
Put one thawed Salmon, split lengthwise, skin side down on a cookie
sheet and spread this mixture over top: 1 1/2 cups mayonnaise, 1/4 cup
butter, 4 Tbsp. honey, 2 Tbsp. vinegar, 2 tsp. fresh lemon juice, 3
Tbsp. green onion, 1 tsp. dried dill weed. Bake at 350-400 degree oven
for 15 minutes per inch of thickness. The most important thing is to
cook it until the flesh just flakes easy, and the colour will turn
slightly lighter.
As a commercial salmon fisherman for over 30 years, I brought home many
salmon. This particular salmon recipe proved to be, time and time again,
the favourite recipe with guests and family. Using the oven method, it
makes cooking easy.
