This salmon seasoning recipe is the perfect blend of herbs and spices. It’s great on any cut of salmon and can be cooked on the stovetop, oven, or grill.
How to Season Salmon
This seasoning mix is easy to prepare and can be sprinkled on all kinds of seafood from salmon (of course!) to shrimp.
- Pat the salmon dry and rub with a little oil for better browning and to heal the seasonings stick.
- Season salmon right before cooking so the salt doesn’t begin to break down the flesh too soon.
- Cook the salmon on the grill, in the oven, or in an air fryer.
- Be sure to let it rest before serving.
Finish it with a squeeze of lemon if you’d like!
How to Cook Salmon
The shape and thickness of your salmon filet will determine how long it needs to cook. A thicker filet will need longer, while a thinner and flatter filet will need less time. Check your salmon early to ensure it doesn’t overcook.
Salmon should be slightly translucent in the center and flake easily with a fork. Like many types of meat, once it is removed from its heat source, it will continue to cook internally as the outside cools and seals in the juices.
