Preparation
- 1
Preheat the Broiler
Set your oven to broil and allow it to preheat for about 10 minutes. This ensures that the salmon will cook evenly and get a nice char.

Broil the Salmon
Place the baking sheet with the seasoned salmon under the broiler. Broil for about 6-8 minutes, or until the salmon is cooked through and flakes easily with a fork. The top should be golden and slightly charred.

Check for Doneness
Use a fork to test the salmon in the thickest part. If it flakes easily and is opaque, it's done. If it's still translucent, broil for an additional 1-2 minutes.
