Wild Alaskan King Salmon

What Is King Salmon?

Wild-caught Alaska king salmon, sometimes known as Chinook salmon, contains the highest omega-3 levels of all the wild Alaska salmon species and is a species of fish that is highly regarded for its flavor and texture. Ours is troll-caught using individual lures and lines and portioned into perfect four to five-ounce servings for your convenience.

What Are The Health Benefits Of Eating King Salmon?

King salmon is not only tasty, but it's also good for your health. It's high in protein, which helps build and repair your body, and it's packed with vitamins and minerals that your body needs. King salmon is also rich in omega-3 fatty acids, which can help reduce the risk of heart disease, and may even help with weight management. So, adding king salmon to your diet can help you stay healthy and reduce the risk of chronic diseases.

What Does King Salmon Taste Like?

One of the main reasons why king salmon is so highly prized is its taste. The flesh is firm, oily, and flaky, and it is typically orange or pink in color. The high fat content of the fish gives it a buttery flavor and a melt-in-your-mouth texture. King salmon is more flavorful than other types of salmon, and it is considered to be one of the tastiest fish available.

How Do I Cook King Salmon?

King salmon can be cooked in a variety of ways, including grilling, baking, broiling, and smoking. Here are some tips for cooking king salmon:

Grilling: To grill king salmon, preheat your grill to medium-high heat. Brush the salmon with olive oil and season with salt and pepper. Place the salmon skin-side down on the grill and cook for 5-6 minutes per side, or until the internal temperature reaches 145°F.


Baking: To bake king salmon, preheat your oven to 400°F. Place the salmon on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Brush the salmon with olive oil and season with salt and pepper. Bake for 12-15 minutes, or until the internal temperature reaches 145°F.


Broiling: To broil king salmon, preheat your broiler to high. Brush the salmon with olive oil and season with salt and pepper. Place the salmon on a broiler pan and broil for 5-6 minutes per side, or until the internal temperature reaches 145°F.


Smoking: To smoke king salmon, prepare your smoker according to the manufacturer's instructions. Brush the salmon with olive oil and season with your favorite herbs and spices. Place the salmon in the smoker and smoke for 1-2 hours, or until the internal temperature reaches 145°F.

    Storage

    Seafood ordered from Sizzlefish should be kept frozen until ready for preparation. Items can be stored frozen for up to 12 months, but are best if consumed within 6 months of purchase.

    Thawing Instructions:

    The best way to thaw our seafood is to remove the product from the original packaging, place it in a plastic bag, and allow it to thaw in the refrigerator for about 6 hours. If you require faster thawing, we recommend placing the product into a non-vacuum sealed bag and placing it in cool water for around thirty minutes to an hour.

    Cooking Instructions:

    Once thawed and removed from packaging, liberally season desired spices to your fillet. (Tip: lay fish on parchment or wax paper for an easy clean up).

    King salmon can be cooked in various ways, including pan-searing, baking, grilling, and smoking. Here are some tips for cooking king salmon:

    Pan-Searing:

    Pat dry and salt the skin. This will enable the skin to become crispy and not stick to the bottom of the pan. Turn the heat on the nonstick pan to medium-high. Once hot, add your oil(about 1-2 tbsp is plenty). Place the fish into the hot pan and sauté for approximately 6-8 minutes, skin side down. Flip to the flesh side with a fish spatula for 2-3 minutes.

    Baking:

    Place salmon on an oven-safe pan and bake at 350°F for 10-12 minutes or until internal temperature reaches 125°F for medium and 145°F for well done. Be careful not to overcook Sockeye, or it can become extremely dry.

    Grilling:

    Place salmon on tin foil or cedar plank (you can purchase them on Sizzlefish) and cook for approximately 8-12 minutes, depending on the fillet's thickness and the temperature of your grill. You aim for the internal temperature at 125°F for medium and 145°F for well done.

    Smoking:

    Prepare your smoker according to the manufacturer's instructions to smoke king salmon. Brush the salmon with olive oil and season with your favorite herbs and spices. Place the salmon in the smoker and smoke for 1-2 hours, or until the internal temperature reaches 145°F.

    Are You Eating Enough Seafood?

    According to the USDA, nearly nine out of every ten Americans are not eating the recommended amount of seafood. Nearly ninety percent of Americans are failing to cash in on the proven health benefits of seafood like reduced risk of heart attack and improved mental health.

    To put this into perspective, it is recommended that we consume eight ounces of seafood, or two servings of seafood each week. How much seafood are you eating?
