Ginguy Posted February 12, 2019 Share Posted February 12, 2019 Roll filets so they are of even thickness, and broil it under a low setting. Salmon burns/overcooks quickly, so once you start be sure to keep an eye on it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GunStarHero Posted February 12, 2019 Share Posted February 12, 2019 I've never broiled salmon but here's a straightforward video I found. Hope it helps. https://www.allrecipes.com/video/4052/melt-in-your-mouth-broiled-salmon/?internalSource=picture_play&referringId=110447&referringContentType=Recipe 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nameraka Posted February 13, 2019 Share Posted February 13, 2019 honestly i just kind of eyeball it. usually like 3-4 minutes per side. sometimes i cook the skin side a bit longer to get it extra crispy. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Every recipe I see starts with "turn broiler on" Well, my broiler either is on low or high, there is no just on, or medium for that matter Also recipes say to have the broiler on with a cast iron skillet six inches from the heat source and not having to turn the salmon cuz the hot skillet will cook the underside Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lupin_bebop Posted February 13, 2019 Share Posted February 13, 2019 (edited) My recommendation for salmon: Do NOT broil it. It overlooks/burns way too easy, dries out the fish, kills flavor, and is at uncontrollable high heat. Grill, sauté, or pan-sear it. Better flavor and easier cooking that way. Here is one of Gordon Ramsay’s methods. Here is a method by the Food Network. If you are just learning, I would recommend Food Network, or Tasty’s methods, as they are more accessible and use a lemon butter baste/sauté, which people tend to like. It only takes about 7 minutes, tops. Ramsay is basically a poached version, which requires more skill and control.

(as is the case with every oven i've ever owned) on is 500 degrees. i have no idea what high or low would be temp-wise six inches from the heat source is pretty standard though.

rpgamer Posted February 14, 2019 Share Posted February 14, 2019 Tbf, a broiler is basically just an upside down grill anyway. Crank that bitch up. The whole point of a broiler is to be hot as fuck. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
