Tips

  • Broil the salmon for 8 minutes on the high setting or 10-11 minutes for salmon cooked through.
  • Place under the broiler for 8 minutes on the high setting (I do this on the lower rack in the oven so the parchment paper doesn’t burn).
  • When the salmon comes out of the oven, top with the avocado salad and enjoy immediately.
