To all my seafood lovers, welcome! This post rounds up all my favorite fresh salmon recipes in one convenient spot. If some flaky and juicy salmon with insanely good flavors sounds like your vibe, then keep on scrolling!
From small bites to full-side salmon feasts and grilled fillets, salmon is always perfect for weeknight dinners or special occasions. Whether you’re a salmon newbie or a seasoned grilling pro looking for fresh inspiration, there’s a simple recipe here for you to try. Who needs a fancy restaurant when you can make the best salmon right in your own backyard?
Salmon is seriously one of the most versatile proteins you can cook. It’s loaded with healthy fatty acids and, undoubtedly, always delivers a juicy, tender bite.
It’s also one of those types of fish that can taste amazing with simple ingredients. An easy go-to recipe for a quick dinner could be grilling with some olive oil (or unsalted butter), dijon mustard, salt, black pepper, fresh garlic and then a squeeze of lemon juice. Or, you can amp up the flavors in any number of ways, as you will soon see in my salmon recipes.
My reliable recipes make it easy to whip up restaurant-quality meals at home without breaking the bank. Plus, salmon is a nutrient-packed, healthy meal option that’s good for your heart and brain.
Alright, let’s talk salmon! Not all salmon is created equal, and knowing the different types makes you feel a little smarter. Each type has its own unique flavor, texture and best uses. Plus, where your salmon comes from can make a big difference in quality.
Here’s a quick overview of the different types of salmon and where they’re sourced, so you can make the best choice for your next meal. You can usually find high-quality salmon at your local grocery store, or, you can order online through Wild Alaskan Company or Wild Alaska Salmon & Seafood.
Let’s dive in and discover all the ways we can make salmon taste so freakin’ delicious!
Whether it’s fire-roasted, smoked or grilled; salmon sides are always satisfying to make. They feed a large crowd with minimal effort but then also with maximum results in terms of flavor and presentation. Whether you’re cooking for a backyard BBQ or a cozy dinner at home, these recipes are always a hit.
Baked, grilled and pan-fried salmon fillets never disappoint. There’s nothing like the crispy, golden exterior and tender, juicy interior that these cooking methods bring out. They’re easy to make, packed with flavor and perfect for any occasion.
Salmon bites are seriously one of my all-time favorite snacks. They’re bite-sized, packed with flavor and, ultimately, always perfect for any occasion. Whether you’re looking for a quick, healthy snack or a crowd-pleasing appetizer, salmon bites never disappoint. Trust me, once you try them, you’ll be hooked!
When it comes to serving salmon, the options are endless. Pair it with brown rice for a hearty, fiber-packed side that complements the richness of the fish. For something lighter, go with fresh spinach or bok choy for a nutritious and refreshing balance.
Craving comfort food? Mashed potatoes are a go-to, with their creamy texture perfectly matching the salmon. Elevate your dish by drizzling it with fresh garlic butter, making each bite even more flavorful. Roasted veggies like asparagus, carrots, and bell peppers add a colorful and tasty side that rounds out the meal perfectly.

Storing and reheating salmon properly is key to enjoying it even after the initial meal. Place your leftover salmon in an airtight container to keep it fresh and refrigerate it for up to three days.
When it’s time to reheat, the goal is to retain the moisture and avoid drying out the fish. Reheat your salmon in the oven at a low temperature, around 275 degrees F, until it warms through. This gentle reheating method helps maintain the tender texture of the salmon.
If you have any extra sauce from the original recipe, adding it when reheating can help keep the salmon juicy and flavorful. Properly stored and reheated, your leftover salmon can be just as delightful as when it was first cooked.
Use an instant-read thermometer to check the internal temperature. It should read 145 degrees F in the thickest part of the fillet.
Yes, you can freeze cooked salmon. Wrap it tightly in aluminum foil or parchment paper and place it in an airtight container. Or, use a good vacuum sealer. Freeze for up to 3 months.
Start by patting the skin dry with a paper towel. Cook the salmon skin side down in a hot pan with a little olive oil over medium-high heat until the skin is crispy and golden brown.
A typical serving of salmon is about 4 to 6 ounces, so if you’re feeding a big crowd, make sure to pick up a couple of pounds of salmon.

Want to dress up your fish? This lusciously creamy dill sauce for salmon transforms it into a restaurant quality meal! As two cookbook authors, this is one of our favorite ways to serve salmon.
Looking to dress up your fish? This lusciously creamy dill sauce adds a burst of tangy, herbaceous flavor to everything it touches. It’s fantastic on anything, of course: like carrot sticks, fries, or as a sandwich spread.
But we’ve found it’s most at home with a piece of savory, perfectly seasoned fish! This sauce compliments the rich, buttery notes of salmon perfectly. (Plus, fresh dill is everything, right?) It takes baked salmon from blah to magnificent in just 5 minutes!
Dill sauce is a natural pairing with salmon: this delicate herb is often paired with fish in Scandinavian cuisine. Its citrusy, subtle licorice flavor is infused throughout this creamy sauce, which has a simple mix of lemon and herbs. This dill sauce has a bit of richness for drizzling on fish: you’ll only need a small amount for big impact. (Contrast that to our Greek yogurt-based Dill Sauce, which is better used as a vegetable dip or on a falafel sandwich.) Here are the ingredients you’ll need:
The flavor of this dill sauce for salmon is best with both fresh dill and dried dill! Fresh dill has a unique flavor that’s hard to replicate with only the dried version. However, buying fresh herbs can be expensive and it’s not always possible to access fresh dill. If you can’t find it, use 2 teaspoons dried dill instead (then skip the added dried dill in the recipe).
Why does this dill sauce use fresh dill and dried dill? They’re both essential to the flavor. Fresh dill infuses a light, citrusy, herby flavor whereas dried dill gives a darker complexity. Don’t leave out the dried dill either! The flavor is lacking without it.
