Costco Salmon

Costco has big bags of single portions of frozen boneless, skinless salmon. The instructions on the back say to defrost in running cold water for 20 minutes, but I defrost in still cold water for 30 minutes.

Ingredients

  • 2–3 portions salmon, defrosted
  • olive oil
  • salt
  • dill
  • thyme
  • tarragon

Directions

  1. Preheat the oven to 350°.
  2. Coat the salmon in a bit of olive oil.
  3. Sprinkle with salt and herbs.
  4. Cook up to 15 minutes.

Variants

See my recipe for Panko-Crusted Salmon, Spicy Salmon, or Pesto Salmon.

Kara Lydon recommends baking salmon for 20–25 minutes at 300°.
