Don't be intimidated by this fancy-looking breaded salmon pinwheel—it's quite easy to do. This technique works best when you use a "center-cut" salmon fillet. If you don't have a center-cut fillet or want to simplify the preparation, leave the fillet whole, spread the mayonnaise over it, top with the breadcrumb mixture and bake. To cut down on prep time, ask your fishmonger to skin the salmon for you. Serve with garlic-rosemary roasted potatoes and wilted spinach.

These marinated salmon bites make a quick crowd-pleasing appetizer. Pink peppercorns offer a bit of spice and a slightly floral flavor, but freshly ground black peppercorns work well too.

Leftovers can be used to top a green salad or stuffed into pita bread with lettuce and tzatziki for an easy sandwich.
These sweet-and-spicy salmon bites are seasoned with a hot honey–lemon glaze that clings nicely to the broiled salmon. Serve this easy appetizer with wooden picks at your next party.

Think of this sheet-pan teriyaki salmon as a stir-fry without the stirring! Instead, rice and veggies are baked on a sheet pan alongside green beans and salmon coated in a sweet teriyaki glaze. Microwaveable precooked rice or leftover brown rice work well here—just be sure to break up any clumps of rice that are stuck together so it cooks evenly.
