The best sauces for salmon
Frequently asked questions
Glistening green chimichurri covers the salmon in a garlicky, herbaceous blanket, and lemon caper sauce makes a tangy, bright pop. Miso sauce infuses loads of umami, and creamy dill sauce is extra classic. Each of these sauces brings something new to the table—and you can mix them up while the fish cooks.
Try easy and basic baked salmon, even quicker broiled salmon, or simple pan seared salmon. Opt for blackened salmon. Try grilled salmon or grilled marinated salmon. Make a salad or sandwich like salmon Caesar salad, salmon salad sandwich or salmon Nicoise salad.
