Instructions

  • Preheat the oven on the high broil setting and place the oven rack in the third-to-top position.
  • Place the 1 (1-pound) salmon fillet skin side down on a baking sheet. Use the full 2 teaspoons avocado oil to lightly oil the bottom of the baking sheet and to drizzle over the flesh of the salmon; rub or brush the oil so the entire flesh surface is coated.
  • Sprinkle 1 pinch sea salt evenly over the flesh of the salmon.
  • In a small bowl, combine 1/2 teaspoon paprika, 1/4 teaspoon onion powder, 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder, and 1/4 teaspoon ground coriander.
  • Evenly sprinkle the combined spice mixture over the oiled salmon flesh.
  • Broil the salmon on the third-to-top shelf for about 10 minutes. (Cook about 6 minutes for rare, and up to 15 minutes for a very thick cut.)
  • Check doneness by inserting a digital thermometer into the thickest part of the salmon; it is considered fully cooked at 145°F.
  • Remove the salmon from the oven and let it rest 5 minutes before serving.

Equipment

  • Digital Thermometer
  • Large baking sheet
