Questions about this recipe

How do I know the salmon is done?

Press it gently with a fork: it should flake apart and look evenly pale throughout, with no translucent middle.

Can I use frozen salmon and broccoli?

Yes — cook the broccoli straight from frozen and thaw the salmon fully first. Figures are calculated for plain grilled salmon, which frozen fillets match closely once cooked.
