I wanted a dish to serve at a party so I used a large salmon fillet weighing 6.7 lbs. The challenge was in finding a pan large enough to accommodate the fillet. I used a broiler sheet, covered it with foil and placed it over three burners on the cooktop. (My cooktop is configured with 5 burners – one in the center and two on either side.) The cooking time increased from 5 minutes to 20 minutes.
