i always microwave salmon steaks, can't go wrong. put two in a dish with a lid. add a good splash of white wine, a slug of lemon juice, a sprinkle of mixed herbs and a little salt and pepper. microwave on high for 2 minutes. let it stand for a couple of minutes (or longer if you're busy doing something else) then microwave again for another couple of minutes. let it stand again, just for a minute, and serve it with hollandaise sauce (a good quality one out of a jar, saves time). serve it with new potatoes and green veg. dead easy and delicious.
