To help you cook your salmon properly every time, we’ve prepared a guide to cooking salmon our two favorite ways—on the stovetop, and in the oven. ## How to Shop for Salmon ```json { "_key": "48d33d1b2f8f", "_type": "legacyImage", "data": "{\n \"_key\": \"48d33d1b2f8f\",\n \"_type\": \"image\",\n \"asset\": {\n \"_id\": \"image-0061115f3a259aa89f1e62160c491b5067c90058-1800x920-jpg\",\n \"metadata\": {\n \"dimensions\": {\n \"_type\": \"sanity.imageDimensions\",\n \"aspectRatio\": 1.9565217391304348,\n \"height\": 920,\n \"width\": 1800\n },\n \"lqip\": \"data:image/jpeg;base64,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\"\n },\n \"url\": \"https://cdn.sanity.io/images/bow86i8j/production/0061115f3a259aa89f1e62160c491b5067c90058-1800x920.jpg\"\n }\n}" } ``` One of the perks of shopping for salmon is that unlike some more specialty fish, it’s readily available. Salmon can be found at both fishmongers and your local grocery store. For best results, purchase salmon on the same day you’re planning on cooking it. While salmon can be stored for up to two days in the refrigerator, its optimal flavor is achieved by cooking on the day of purchase. Make sure to take a look at its flesh as well—it should be shiny, and not discolored at the edges. Also , it should never smell fishy. ## How to Cook Salmon in the Oven ```json { "_key": "d3698b4f89d8", "_type": "legacyImage", "data": "{\n \"_key\": \"d3698b4f89d8\",\n \"_type\": \"image\",\n \"asset\": {\n \"_id\": \"image-021e94d50bc53db9f9c17473baaf69588e35e7a8-1800x920-jpg\",\n \"metadata\": {\n \"dimensions\": {\n \"_type\": \"sanity.imageDimensions\",\n \"aspectRatio\": 1.9565217391304348,\n \"height\": 920,\n \"width\": 1800\n },\n \"lqip\": \"data:image/jpeg;base64,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\"\n },\n \"url\": \"https://cdn.sanity.io/images/bow86i8j/production/021e94d50bc53db9f9c17473baaf69588e35e7a8-1800x920.jpg\"\n }\n}" } ``` Baking salmon is a great way to multitask during meal prep, a busy workweek, or while cooking for a dinner party. While the oven does all the work to create your perfectly prepared dish, you can focus on other things. ### **Step 1: Preheat and Season** Preheat the oven to 350F. Season each piece of salmon with salt, pepper, and optional seasonings like paprika or garlic powder. ```json { "_key": "7f82a1d52ded", "_type": "medium", "ctas": null, "description": null, "image": { "asset": { "altText": "A person in a denim apron is patting a piece of salmon dry with a paper towel while preparing to cook in a kitchen.", "metadata": { "dimensions": { "_type": "sanity.imageDimensions", "aspectRatio": 1.4993857493857494, "height": 4884, "width": 7323 }, "lqip": "data:image/jpeg;base64,/9j/2wBDAAYEBQYFBAYGBQYHBwYIChAKCgkJChQODwwQFxQYGBcUFhYaHSUfGhsjHBYWICwgIyYnKSopGR8tMC0oMCUoKSj/2wBDAQcHBwoIChMKChMoGhYaKCgoKCgoKCgoKCgoKCgoKCgoKCgoKCgoKCgoKCgoKCgoKCgoKCgoKCgoKCgoKCgoKCj/wAARCAANABQDASIAAhEBAxEB/8QAGAAAAgMAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAcDBgj/xAAmEAAABgECBQUAAAAAAAAAAAABAgMEBREABhIHEyIxYSEzUXGR/8QAFQEBAQAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAwH/xAAcEQEAAgEFAAAAAAAAAAAAAAABAAIREhNBUVL/2gAMAwEAAhEDEQA/AF3ExEpqLRDpcyCguGavMsxRo4fH3lWi4CUnpEybdvtEgUJDjtr9zTikKWD06zh2LhQjcKOYwBRjj5xRcdkBYzEU6aKCgos3Ddyum/Xxkw1qkVsWR5JG04czLREE2iRgTHqEN5e498MWzl/IIKbCSLyqv3Rww9L3F3DyT//Z" }, "url": "https://cdn.sanity.io/images/fr9flhkd/main/c4f301ff023e024f29d9b47058d669f99ca43aa5-7323x4884.jpg" } }, "tags": null, "type": "image", "video": null } ``` ### **Step 2: Bake the Fish** Arrange each fillet skin-side down on a lightly oiled Sheet Pan and bake the salmon for 12–15 minutes (depending on the size of the fillets) until the fish is cooked to your liking. If you want to make clean-up even easier, use our Non Stick Sheet Pans or line the Sheet Pan with parchment paper. ```json { "_key": "451c87c6965d", "_type": "variant", "data": { "_id": "variant-32141001490511", "badges": [], "collegiateAsset": null, "computed": { "discount": 0, "isAvailable": true, "isPrimary": true, "offset": 0, "price": 29, "status": "forSale" }, "handle": { "current": "half-sheet" }, "imageBadges": null, "media": [ { "_key": "85885e5b70e2", "description": null, "hotspots": null, "image": { "asset": { "altText": "half sheet pan lifestyle", "metadata": { "dimensions": { "_type": "sanity.imageDimensions", "aspectRatio": 1, "height": 1440, "width": 1440 }, "lqip": "data:image/jpeg;base64,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" }, "url": "https://cdn.sanity.io/images/fr9flhkd/main/e30b0085da51f1c70d1c9beac0fb71e78f77ed73-1440x1440.jpg" } }, "tags": [ "gallery", "secondary" ], "type": "image", "video": null } ], "meta": { "hasCollegiate": false, "hasTrial": false, "hasWaitList": false, "isCollegiate": false, "isDiscountEligible": true, "isFinalSale": false, "isOnSale": false, "isSet": false, "promoDates": null, "promoPrice": null }, "product": { "ranking": 85, "rating": { "rating": 4.89, "rating_count": 2998 }, "shopify": { "handle": "sheet-pan", "id": 4601535103055, "image": { "alt": null, "height": 1500, "src": "https://cdn.shopify.com/s/files/1/2131/5111/files/Web_Accessory_SheetPan_Half_1x1_Hero_093ead5d-b447-4139-afaa-7b12c375266e.jpg?v=1762197999", "width": 1500 }, "title": "Sheet Pan" } }, "shopify": { "handle": null, "id": 32141001490511, "image": { "alt": null, "height": 1500, "src": "https://cdn.shopify.com/s/files/1/2131/5111/files/Web_Accessory_SheetPan_Half_1x1_Hero_093ead5d-b447-4139-afaa-7b12c375266e.jpg?v=1762197999", "width": 1500 }, "title": "1/2 Sheet / Standard" }, "taxonomies": [ { "handle": { "current": "accessories" }, "title": "Accessories", "type": "product_category" }, { "handle": { "current": "best-sellers" }, "title": "Best Sellers", "type": "merchandising" }, { "handle": { "current": "bakeware" }, "title": "Bakeware", "type": "product_category" }, { "handle": { "current": "sheet-pans" }, "title": "Sheet Pan", "type": "product_type" }, { "handle": { "current": "cookware" }, "title": "Cookware", "type": "product_category" }, { "handle": { "current": "utensils" }, "title": "Utensils", "type": "product_type" } ], "title": null } } ``` ## How to Cook Salmon on the Stovetop ```json { "_key": "fe7c29a203e8", "_type": "legacyImage", "data": "{\n \"_key\": \"fe7c29a203e8\",\n \"_type\": \"image\",\n \"asset\": {\n \"_id\": \"image-851a0d6b494718c6f72bfc11e6b3d3f7abddd6ff-1800x920-jpg\",\n \"metadata\": {\n \"dimensions\": {\n \"_type\": \"sanity.imageDimensions\",\n \"aspectRatio\": 1.9565217391304348,\n \"height\": 920,\n \"width\": 1800\n },\n \"lqip\": \"data:image/jpeg;base64,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\"\n },\n \"url\": \"https://cdn.sanity.io/images/bow86i8j/production/851a0d6b494718c6f72bfc11e6b3d3f7abddd6ff-1800x920.jpg\"\n }\n}" } ``` For some, the stovetop is the easiest way to cook salmon. While it might require more attention than baking, time is saved because preheating the oven isn’t necessary. ### **Step 1: Preheat the Frying Pan** Heat a Stainless Clad or Non Stick Frying Pan on medium-high, then add a layer of oil, adding more oil if you’re using Stainless Clad. ```json { "_key": "f816488fd813", "_type": "variant", "data": { "_id": "variant-44266864138", "badges": [],
