a million hun but i know a yummy choice for me is lemon (or oranges), garlic, pepper, rosemary (or lavender) broiled. a cajun seasoning is also good. as is a steak seasoning. as is a teriyaki marinade (soy sauce, brown sugar & sweet fruit like pineapple). another good one is a tequila lime version i make i put on a lil tequila, lime, onion, garlic, pinch of sea salt & cayenne pepper. make a mango salsa to go with it (mangos, onion, garlic, jalapeno, cilantro, lime) some brown rice.

The healthiest way to eat salmon is to bake it at 350 for about 40 min. I slice an orange on top (not as tangy as a lemon but still takes the fishy taste out) with a little beer (any kind) in the bottom of the glass dish. I season it with a LITTLE paprika, salt, pepper and Tony's Chachere, season all can be subsituted if u don't have tony's.

Buy a cedar plank, soak it in water for a while. Season your fish with S&P, little olive oil, thyme, parsley.....place fish on plank, place plank on the grill on med. temp. cover and cook for about 20 min. You'll get this cedar infused piece of salmon, the best!!

It's not the healthiest way to cook it, but I marinate it in fresh lemon juice for about four hours and then pan fry it in butter. Mmmm...

You can add parsley, basil, or thyme. Whatever is to your taste. :-)

Well i wrapped it in tin foil with a lump of garlic butter and let it bake on Gas mark 6 / 180 degrees for bout 30 mins

Or bake it same way without garlic butter and make a nice white sauce or cheese sauce.

I use mostly salmon fillets or steaks rather than whole salmon. To cook I rub them with fresh ground pepper, lemon juice and extra virgin olive oil then broil for about 5 minutes per side or until they start to brown up.

For a whole salmon try poaching (in the oven) in a court boullion (try a google search for the recipe). The wine and othe ringredients in the boullion add a lot fo flavour to the salmon. I've used that many times for dinner parties and always got rave reviews.
