Put the salmon fillet in a frying pan with a cover (or something big and shallow), put in two or three inches of chicken soup mix with water. Add more if it looks like its drying out. My mom always made it like this and it was REALLY yummy.

Honey and Soy Glazed Salmon

2 tablespoons honey
2 tablespoons soy sauce
1 1/2 tablespoons fresh lemon or lime juice
2 teaspoons Dijon mustard
1 tablespoon water
2 teaspoons vegetable oil
2 6-ounce salmon fillets

1. In a small bowl whisk together honey, soy sauce, lemon or lime juice, mustard, and water.
2. In a small non-stick skillet heat oil over moderately high heat and cook salmon 2 to 3 minutes on each side, or until golden and just cooked through. Transfer salmon to 2 plates.
3. Add honey glaze to skillet and simmer, stirring, 1 minute. Pour glaze over salmon.

Serves 2.

Honey Grilled or Baked Salmon

4 8 ounce salmon fillets, skinless

Honey Pepper Sauce:
3/4 cup honey
1/3 cup soy sauce
1/4 cup dark brown sugar, packed
1/4 cup pineapple juice
juice of 1 lemon, about 2 tablespoons
2 tablespoons white distilled vinegar
2 teaspoons olive oil
1 teaspoon ground black pepper
1/2 teaspoon cayenne pepper
1/2 teaspoon paprika
1/4 teaspoon garlic powder

Make the sauce by combining all ingredients in a medium saucepan over medium low heat. Stir occasionally until sauce begins to boil, then simmer uncovered for 15 minutes or until syrupy. Watch the sauce closely to be sure it doesn't bubble over. Preheat barbecue grill to medium heat. Rub each salmon filet with vegetable oil, then add a light sprinkling of salt and pepper. Grill the salmon for 4 to 7 minutes per side or until done. Or bake uncovered for about 15 minutes. Serve salmon with a small cup of the honey pepper sauce on the side. Serves 4.

I squeeze lots of lemon juice over the salmon and sprinkle Old Bay Seasoning on top.

Bake at 350 till it flakes.

I had a friend that told me to brush mayo on my salmon. It didn't seem to add any extra flavor, just added additional fat and calories.

(I bought a huge slab of salmon a couple weeks ago and made it my way, with just lemon juice and spices one night, and my friend's recipe, with mayo a few days later. I really didn't see any difference with the mayo).

youre prob right. its just the way I was given the recipe:)) try just putting the lemon pepper spice. maybe wet the salmon first so the spices will stick better?

I rinse my salmon, and the moisture from that seems to work just fine.

The mayo doesn't necessarily allow the spices to stick better, it's to seal in moisture so the fish doesn't dry out during cooking.

I rub a little olive oil on top and then sprinkle cracked pepper on top.
