  4. About half an hour before serving time, preheat the broiler.
  5. Transfer the salmon fillets to a broiler pan or baking dish large enough to hold them in a single layer. Place them under the broiler and cook until nicely browned and barely cooked through in the center, 3 to 4 minutes per side (if the broiler is on high) or 6-7 minutes per side (if the broiler is on low) .. depending on thickness, turning them carefully with a spatula half way through.
  6. Serve as a whole fillet with your favorite vegetable side .. or shred & incorporate as a protein source into anything from omelets to salads.
