When your Atlantic Salmon arrives, keep it frozen until ready for use. Since your fish has been frozen at the peak of quality and freshness, it can be stored in your freezer for up to four months. Prior to thawing, remove the fish from the vacuum package. Thaw your frozen fish at least one day in the refrigerator prior to cooking.
Salmon is ideal for broiling and grilling. It is also exceptional baked. To bake or broil salmon portions, preheat the oven to 400 degrees, drizzle a baking pan with olive oil, place the salmon in the pan, and top with butter. Add your favorite seasonings such as dill sprigs, lemon pepper, seasoned salt, or teriyaki sauce. Bake for 10 minutes per inch of thickness.
To grill, season first, then grill salmon fillets for approximately 5-7 minutes per side, depending on thickness. You may choose to brush a marinade over the salmon while cooking to prevent dryness. Salmon should turn a light pink color, and flake easily when done. If you have a meat thermometer, the internal temperature in the center of the fillet should reach 145ºF.
