Heat a separate non-stick skillet over medium-high heat. Cook the salmon fillets in the hot skillet until golden brown on each side, and no longer translucent in the center, about 4 minutes per side. Pour the browned onions and olive oil over the salmon fillets to serve.

FRESH SALMON OMELET

Steps:

• Remove the skin and bones from the salmon; cut into 1/2-in. chunks. In a 10-in. skillet, saute the salmon, onion and green pepper in 1 tablespoon butter. Remove and set aside., In a small bowl, beat eggs. Melt remaining butter in same skillet over medium heat; add eggs. As eggs set, lift edges, letting uncooked portion flow underneath. , When the eggs are set, spoon salmon mixture over one side, then sprinkle with cheese and pepper; fold omelet over filling. Cover and let stand for 1-1/2 minutes or until the cheese is melted., If desired, make a tomato rose. With a small sharp knife, peel the skin in a thin continuous strip, starting from the base of the tomato. Roll up tightly, skin side out, from the stem end. Tuck end of strip under rose and place on omelet. From green pepper, cut two leaves. Arrange on each side of tomato rose.

SALMON WITH HORSERADISH "CREAM"

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 deg.F. Lightly oil a 9-in. pie plate or other baking dish.
• Combine the yogurt, horseradish and chives in a small bowl. Season with salt and pepper. Season the salmon lightly with salt and pepper. Place salmon in pan and pour sauce over it.
• Bake salmon until just cooked through, about 18 to 20 minutes. Transfer to plate. Garnish with chives.
• Note1: The original calls for low-fat yogurt, but I don't like the additives, and always use whole milk natural yogurt.
• Note2: The original recipe suggests 1 tbl. of the yogurt mix spread on the fish, with the remainder passed as a sauce. I really prefer cooking all of the sauce and serving the pan sauces with the fish.
• Note3: A fillet works as well as a steak, just watch the thickness.
• Note4: Try fresh dill instead of chives - lovely. Also, really drain the horseradish well.
