I love making salmon because you can use many different cooking techniques. You can pan-fry, roast, broil, grill, poach, bake it in foil or wrap it in parchment (Salmon en Papillote). My preferred method is to roast it in the oven. I changed this Salmon with Dill Pickle Butter recipe from pan-frying to roasting it in the oven. I am always looking for recipes that involve dill pickles since my husband loves anything with pickles. This recipe can't get any easier.
