My favorite way to cook salmon is to grill it on a charcoal BBQ,this is a favorite too! Ten minutes is medium rare,they way we like it,if you like salmon well done,roast an additional 3-4 minutes but don't dry it out! Sometimes I'll add a pat of butter on the fish as soon as it come out of the oven.
