Simple enough for a weeknight yet special enough for entertaining, this dish can also be served cold. We are fans of flaking the salmon, mixing it with the sauce, and laying it on toast or serving with whole-grain crackers. When cooking salmon fillets, don't bother removing the skin before cooking. The flesh will easily lift from the skin post-broil.
