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.
Baking Frozen Salmon. Preheat the oven to 325 F. It's standard to cook salmon at a higher temperature, but heating it more gently minimizes or prevents the outer flesh from overcooking. Place a greased sheet of foil or parchment paper on a baking tray and put the salmon steak or filet on top. Because it's frozen, the estimated cooking time is extended by around 50 percent. So bake the fish for approximately 22 to 32 minutes, depending on its thickness.
