The safest way to thaw frozen salmon is to place it in a bowl and gently thaw it in the refrigerator overnight. If you don’t have time, place the salmon in a resealable plastic bag and submerge it in a bowl of cold water. Check on it every 30 minutes, replacing it with new cold water if the fish isn’t yet thawed. Pat the thawed fish dry with paper towels before cooking.

- 3/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon pepper
Directions
