LIME-MARINATED GRILLED SALMON
The fresh lime juice and mustard add a nice tang to this moist and flaky grilled salmon. I came up with this marinade after tasting something similar at a friend's house and it is now one of our favorite ways to do fish. You may also use other firm fish steaks instead of salmon; halibut, tuna and swordfish all work well.

ROASTED DILL SALMON
This oven-roasted salmon is adapted from the cookbook "Bottom of the Pot: Persian Recipes and Stories" (Flatiron, 2018) by Naz Deravian. The dish comes from Ms. Deravian's stepmother, who likes to combine her native Japanese ingredients with Iranian ones like pomegranate molasses. Get a quick pot of rice started as the salmon marinates and you can have dinner prepped in less than 20 minutes. Serve with sheveed polo (Iranian dill rice) and make sure to drizzle plenty of the pan juices over the salmon and rice.

Steps:
- Heat the oven to 425 degrees with the rack in the center position. Choose a baking sheet or baking dish that fits the salmon snugly (so the juices don't disperse and burn) and line it with parchment paper. Place the salmon skin-side down on the baking sheet and season well with salt and pepper.
- Combine the rest of the ingredients in a small bowl and spoon over the salmon. If you have time, flip the salmon and let marinate directly on the baking sheet, flesh-side down, for 15 minutes.
- Roast the salmon skin-side down until cooked through to your liking, 9 to 12 minutes. Serve with extra lime or orange wedges, and drizzle the pan juices over the salmon and rice.

CEDAR PLANK-GRILLED SALMON WITH GARLIC, LEMON AND DILL
Steps:
- Soak an untreated cedar plank (or planks) large enough to hold a side of salmon (5 to 7 inches wide and 16 to 20 inches long) in water, weighting it with something heavy, like a brick, so it stays submerged 30 minutes to 24 hours.
- When ready to grill, either build a charcoal fire in half the grill or turn grill burners on high for 10 minutes. Meanwhile, mix oil, garlic, dill, salt, pepper and lemon zest; rub over salmon and into scored areas to coat.
- Place soaked cedar on hot grill grate, close lid, and watch until wood starts to smoke, about 5 minutes. Transfer salmon to hot plank, move salmon off direct charcoal heat or turn burners to low, and cook covered until salmon is just opaque throughout (130 on a meat thermometer inserted in the thickest section) 20 to 25 minutes or longer, depending on thickness and grill temperature. Let sit 5 minutes; serve with lemon wedges.

Steps:
- Prepare grill for cooking over medium-hot charcoal (moderate heat for gas).
- Season salmon all over with salt and pepper, then grill, flesh sides down, on lightly oiled grill rack (covered only if using gas grill) 4 minutes. Turn fillets over and grill (covered only if using gas grill) until just cooked through, 4 to 6 minutes more. Sprinkle fillets with zest and top each with 1 tablespoon lime butter sauce.
Tips:
- Choose the right salmon. Look for wild-caught salmon that is firm and has a bright color. Avoid farmed salmon, as it is often less flavorful and may contain more contaminants.
- Pat the salmon dry before cooking. This will help the skin crisp up and prevent the fish from steaming.
- Season the salmon liberally. Use a combination of salt, pepper, and your favorite herbs and spices. You can also add a squeeze of lemon or lime juice.
- Cook the salmon over medium heat. This will help prevent the fish from overcooking and becoming dry.
- Cook the salmon until it is opaque throughout. You can check the doneness of the salmon by inserting a fork into the thickest part of the fish. If the fork comes out clean, the salmon is done.
- Serve the salmon immediately. Salmon is best served hot off the grill. You can garnish it with fresh herbs, lemon or lime wedges, or a drizzle of olive oil.
Conclusion:
Pan-grilled salmon is a quick and easy weeknight meal that is packed with flavor. By following these tips, you can cook salmon that is perfectly cooked and delicious. So next time you're looking for a healthy and tasty meal, give pan-grilled salmon a try!
