The United States Food and Drug Administration recommends cooking salmon to an internal temperature of 145 degrees Fahrenheit. Push the tip of the meat thermometer gently into the middle of the salmon fillet at its thickest part. Ideally, start checking the internal temperature a few minutes before the salmon fillet should be done cooking -- this prevents you from overcooking the fish. Once your salmon is cooked, clean the meat thermometer with hot water and soap to prevent cross-contamination.
Baked salmon can be buttery and delicious if cooked right. Baking is also one of the easiest and least time consuming way to prepare salmon. 1  Place the dressed salmon in a baking dish and cook it at 350 degrees Fahrenheit (177 degrees Celsius). 2  If you are baking salmon fillets, cook it at 450 degrees F (232 degrees C). Flip the fish halfway through grilling to cook it evenly. 2  If you are using a gas stove, preheat the grill to a medium heat. 3  Place the salmon on the grill and close the grill. 4  Again, grill the fish for 4 to 6 minutes per each Â½ inch of thickness.
