Tip: These are also spectacular when grilled because they cook evenly and better than the traditionally cut fillets - just ensure you turn them half way through the grilling process ;-)

* HOW TO MAKE INSIDE-OUT SALMON STEAKS (See photo)


1 whole, boneless salmon fillet, with skin on and still intact along back (see 1st photo).


With salmon closed, slice off a strip 1-inch wide x 5 to 7 inches long (“cross-wise” across entire fillet).


With your knife, score the center of the flesh, being careful not to cut through the skin.


Fold in half “backwards” so the skin creates a hinge and sticks to itself, creating an "Inside-Out Salmon Steak" (see 2nd photo).


Roast, saute, or grill as you normally do with salmon steak – feel free to try the above recipe – They're delish.
