This is a great way to cook any fish and virtually eliminate any fish smell. What’s interesting the fish does not pick up the onion flavor. This is presented as a way to eat it cold. It can be eaten hot, just sometimes cold salmon is pretty good stuff. Read more See less

How to make it

Wash steaks with water.
Remove skin from steaks or fillets. I like steaks as it is easier to remove the skin. Removing the skin reduces fish smell.
Once the skin is removed, you will see per the pic #4 there is a dark area that should also be removed. Cut out the area shown.
Pic #7 shows a close-up of the marbling. These layers of fat make the fish flavorful and tender. Salmon from Norway is heavy marbled and is the best I have ever ate.
Put olive oil on each side and season with Vegetable Supreme.
Dice the onion.
Put 1/2 of the onion under the steaks and half on top.
Put plastic wrap over the dish and microwave on 50% power for 5 minutes. Allow to stay in the over 5-10 minutes. Carefully remove from the microwave, the dish is hot. My microwave is 1300 watts, adjust time for your oven.
I like to eat hot or cold salmon with a dab of mayo with Vegetable Supreme. Enjoy.

Sounds delicious! The microwave is the only way I prepare my salmon even if just to make salmon patties. I'm not fond of the stronger flavor I always seem to encounter in grilled or crusty salmon. I'll have to try this sometime. Thanks.
