Our "Wild caught fresh salmon" comes from WalMart frozen by the Chinese. I get them quite often, cut them into 4 pieces and store each in a sandwich or quart bag frozen. Most of the time I thaw them in the microwave, open the bag a little, put lemon juice into it and let it sit about 15 minutes. Take the Salmon out of the bag and place on a rack, skin down. Coat it heavy with black pepper (quess the could call it lemon pepper) and bake it 30 minutes wide open (450) in my toaster oven. The lower watts of the toaster oven require a little more time. Toaster ovens are great for long cooking items in the summer. I just put mine out on the patio and don't heat up the house.

Just so folks know... wild caught Alaskan salmon from certain Alaskan waters are often sent to Chinese processors, especially it it's caught in western Alaska or out along the Aleutian chain or in the Bering Sea. China serves much of the Asian/European market and frequently it's more economical for fisheries to go the China route for processing Alaskan fish. Seeing the word "China" on a package does not at all indicate that fish isn't American-caught.

I pick that particular Salmon because it's only 55 mg of sodium per 4 oz but that does make me feel better about it Kevin.
