For me salmon is a quick work night meal for when I am tired. I dredge it in flour, season in salt and pepper, and cook it in the frying pan for a few minutes with butter and oil. Baked potato and microwaved frozen veggies or green salad on the side. What are some simple things I can do to improve on this while not sacrificing the utility of the meal? I will be cooking within the next two hours.

Marinade in soy sauce, citrus juice, sesame oil, and aromatics for 30 minutes. Add some sambal or chiles if you like heat. Broil filets ~6 inches away from the heat for 6-8 minutes until cooked through and cripsy on top.

Also, stop settling for frozen veggies. You can do better with less in almost the same amount of time.

Just look up the seriouseats one. If it's a cut like that, halve it, salt it, a little olive oil, and sear on both sides starting with the skin side down. As easy as you can get. Then fork it in with rice, peas, and pickapeppa gingery mango sauce (can't recommend this enough).

Salmon is overrated unless it's smoked or raw. Cooked salmon makes me wrench

Try Miso Braised Salmon, you just marinade it in miso, soy sauce, sake, and mirin, fry it then stick in the oven. It’s easy and so tasty

Start with a fish that you've personally hooked out in the Pacific Ocean

Your pic of salmon is disgusting. For me I only eat salmon raw, in order to truly be able to perceive the fish's quality.

I've never felt the need for salmon. salt and pepper, or pepper and jap sauce is more than enough to be delicious

I think you mean 'retch', unless it actually makes you do DIY.

cooked salmon is like well done steak, fucking gross and a waste of good food. japs arent the only ones who eat it raw as sushi. cube a good chunk and hit it with a good splash of soy sauce. you really get a feel of how fatty, juicy, decadent, and delicious this fish is when all of those muscle fibers havent shriveled up and expelled everything that makes them delicious during cooking.

theres no way to cook salmon that makes it better than raw. stop being a pussy and try a whole raw non-frozen fillet and get back to me when your world is changed you ignorant faggot.

Don't do this with fresh catch. It has to be frozen first or you're going to ingest some nasty parasites.
