Buffalo sauce's relationship with chicken wings is so strong that a spicy dalliance with salmon certainly isn't going to end things forever. Then again, this fiery fish works so well that we're thinking it might just open up a whole new world for the condiment.

    Preheat oven to 425°F with rack in upper third. Lightly oil a shallow baking pan.
