Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 325 degrees Fahrenheit.*
- While the oven preheats, in a shallow dish mix together 4 cups room temperature water and 3 tablespoons kosher salt. Place the salmon in the water and wait for 15 minutes.
- Place a large sheet of aluminum foil on a baking sheet and brush it with olive oil. Pat each piece of salmon dry and place it on the foil. Sprinkle the salmon with 1/8 teaspoon kosher salt for each fillet and fresh ground pepper. Place the lemon slices and fresh herbs around the salmon (not on top). Close and seal the foil around the salmon.
- Bake the salmon for 10 minutes in the foil. Then open the foil packet so steam can release and bake again for 3 to 6 minutes, depending on thickness, until just tender and pink at the center (the internal temperature should be between 125 to 130F in the center). A 1 inch thick fillet should cook in about 15 minutes total.
- Meanwhile, melt the butter over low heat. Once melted, add the capers and garlic and cook until fragrant, about 3 minutes.
- When the salmon is done, squeeze with some lemon juice from remaining lemon slices. Spoon the butter sauce over each piece of salmon. Garnish with finely chopped parsley or chives.

SALMON TWO WAYS WITH CAPER SAUCE
Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
- For the salmon: Season the salmon filets with salt and pepper. In a bowl, mix together the panko, parsley, dill, garlic and 1 tablespoon of the oil until the panko is evenly coated. Coat the salmon with the panko mixture and let sit for a few minutes so the crust sticks.
- Heat the remaining 2 tablespoons of oil in an ovenproof skillet over medium-high heat. Add the salmon and cook until the breadcrumbs are golden, 2 to 3 minutes per side. Transfer the skillet to the oven and cook for 5 minutes. Keep the salmon warm.
- For the salmon hash: Heat the oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the potatoes and cook, stirring occasionally, until they start to brown, 4 to 5 minutes. Add the onion and bell pepper and cook until the potatoes are cooked through and the peppers are soft, 10 minutes more. Turn off the heat and stir in the salmon and capers. Season with salt and pepper. Keep the hash warm.
- To make the salad: Toss the bread cubes with 1 tablespoon of the oil on a baking sheet. Spread the bread in a single layer and toast in the oven, stirring once or twice, until crunchy but not too hard, 8 to 10 minutes.
- In a large bowl, whisk together the vinegar, mustard, shallot, remaining 2 tablespoons oil, salt and pepper. Add the cucumber, tomatoes, onion and dill and stir to coat everything in the dressing. Stir in the toasted bread.
- For the sauce: Heat the oil in a small skillet over low heat. Add the shallot and cook until softened, about 2 minutes. Turn off the heat and whisk in the butter 1 piece at a time. Stir in the capers and dill. Squeeze in the lemon juice and season with salt and pepper.
- To plate: Divide the salmon hash among 4 plates and top each with a salmon filet. Spoon the sauce over the salmon. Divide the salad among the plates, placing it on the side of the salmon.

SALMON WITH CREAMY DILL SAUCE
I served this with spaghetti. I tossed the hot, drained noodles with enough of the sauce to coat, plated the spaghetti, topped with the salmon and dressed the salmon with another dollop of the sauce, and garnished with a few more capers.
