Season salmon with salt and pepper. Place salmon, skin side down, on a non-stick baking sheet or in a non-stick pan with an oven-proof handle. Bake until salmon is cooked through, about 12 to 15 minutes.
What temperature should salmon be cooked at?According to Cook's Illustrated, 125 degrees F is the preferred temperature for farmed salmon if you like your salmon to be mostly firm with a fair amount of silkiness. Wild salmon should be cooked to just 120 degrees F, as it is leaner and more prone to drying out.
Do you bake salmon at 350 or 400?The temperature of 350 F is perfect for cooking salmon. At this temperature, the salmon will cook slowly without becoming burnt or dried out. It is a great temperature for chicken and pork as well.
Do you bake salmon at 350 or 375?A good temperature to cook salmon is 375°F. At a salmon cook temp of 375°F, 15-20 minutes is fairly accurate to cook through. You want to make sure your salmon internal temp reaches about 145°F.
