  • Start by scaling and gutting the fish, then cut the pink salmon into steaks or small pieces about 1 inch thick across the body. For this dish you want only the parts with the backbone and rib bones — the tail end won't work for steaks. It's best to use a large pink salmon here: for 8 servings you'll want a good-sized fish weighing 3 to 4 pounds, so each steak comes out to about 4 ounces. Mix the flour with the pepper and salt. Pour vegetable oil into a skillet and set it over medium heat. Dredge the salmon steaks well in the flour mixture, then fry them in the hot skillet for 5 minutes per side. Fish cooks fast, so try not to overdo it or it'll dry out. Lift the finished fish onto a platter with a slotted spatula. Serve the fried pink salmon with fries or a light salad. Enjoy!
