12 Weeknight Salmon Fillet Recipes

Salmon is a popular choice at the fish counter for good reason: It's flavorful and rich without being overly fishy, and its fat content keeps the flesh moist during cooking. Once descaled, salmon breaks down into easily portioned fillets, with skin that crisps up nicely in a skillet or over a hot grill. In this collection, we focus on our favorite easy salmon fillet recipes for whipping up a quick dinner.

Of course, there are many other lovely ways to serve salmon. For winter days, our one-pot salmon chowder might be just the thing.
