Step-by-Step Instructions

Preheat the oven to 480°F (250°C). Thinly slice the onion and shiitake mushrooms, and separate the shimeji into small clusters.

Sprinkle the salmon fillets with 1/2 teaspoon salt and let them rest for 10 to 15 minutes. Pat dry with paper towels before cooking.

Heat 2 teaspoons oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add the onion, shiitake, and shimeji mushrooms, and saute until the onion softens and turns translucent.
