Observations

What to serve with the salmon steak?
Salmon pairs perfectly with starches such as basmati rice, quinoa, or bulgur. For vegetables, you can choose leeks, spinach, or asparagus.

How to bake the steak in parchment?
If you don't like the grilled aspect and are worried about your salmon steak drying out, you can opt for cooking in parchment: Season your salmon steak with herbs and/or vegetables of your choice, place everything in a hermetically folded parchment paper, and bake at 350°F (180°C) for 8 to 12 minutes.

What if my salmon steak is frozen?
It's simple, just add 3 to 5 minutes of additional cooking time depending on the thickness of the steak.
