HOW TO COOK SALMON IN THE OVEN PERFECTLY EACH TIME
My dad is a huge seafood lover. Growing up on the West Coast, he was always picking up fresh seafood at the market such as lobsters, oysters, crabs, and all kinds of fish. Most of them were still alive and kicking by the time he brought them home, to my poorly disguised horror. He often cooked salmon dishes for dinner, and it wasn’t until I moved to the East Coast that I learned how Pacific salmon is wild and Atlantic salmon is all farm raised. There is only one species of salmon in the Atlantic ocean and it is an endangered species, so fishing for it is illegal. Accordingly, any Atlantic salmon you find for sale at the market is farm raised. Pacific salmon is almost all wild, so I find myself often opting for seafood dishes whenever I’m visiting family on the West Coast.
Both fresh and frozen salmon fillets will work well for this recipe. I prefer buying frozen salmon, as they’re more readily available, less expensive, and are often frozen soon after being caught. Frozen fish are often frozen at sea or immediately upon landing at port, so their quality is just as high as fresh ones. When selecting frozen salmon, I always opt for “wild caught” salmon, preferably deskinned and deboned.

Ingredients
- 1 pound salmon
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/8 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
- 1/2 navel orange sliced
- 1 teaspoon fresh dill
For the sauce:
- 1/2 navel orange juiced (about 3 tablespoons)
- 1/4 cup low-sodium soy sauce
- 1/4 cup brown sugar
- 1 tablespoon sriracha
- 5 cloves garlic minced
- 1 teaspoon minced fresh ginger
Instructions
- Combine all sauce ingredients in a small saucepot, saving the other half of the navel orange for later. Stir as you bring to a simmer over medium heat. Simmer for a few minutes, reducing to medium-low to maintain simmer. Remove from heat and set aside.
- Prepare a greased foil-lined baking sheet. Lay salmon on top of the foil. Sprinkle salt and pepper on top, spreading it evenly on top of the salmon. Slice the remaining half of the orange and tuck the slices under the sides of the salmon.
- Folding up the sides of the foil, pour half of the sauce over the salmon. Use a spoon to fully coat the top of the salmon with the sauce.
