You can always make a meal from your store cupboard with canned fish. Click on the poster above to get loads of canned seafood recipes or try the super tasty canned salmon recipe here.
I love canned salmon, it's so reliable unlike fresh salmon which can be a bit tasteless unless you've got really good wild salmon.
I think fresh sometimes tastes a bit metallic unless you've got wild salmon. Most salmon you buy in the supermarket or fishmonger will be farmed - it's flabby as a result. Tinned salmon is always reliable and if you're making a recipe like this, you can go for the cheaper pink salmon as opposed to red salmon.
You can dress up fresh salmon with sauces - just pre-cook it and follow the recipe.

4 Tbs. chopped onion

¼ cup minced parsley
¼ tsp. salt
Dash nutmeg
1 can (10-3/4 oz.) cream of mushroom soup
1 Tbs. lemon juice
½ tsp. paprika
4 stuffed olives, sliced
Preparation:
Saute onion in heated butter until golden. Set aside.
Drain salmon, pouring liquid into measuring cup.
