I don’t eat a lot of meat nowadays. Part of the reason for this is my concern over animal welfare. Another reason is that I know that too much meat can be bad for you. I also find that meat makes me feel heavy and overly full. I do still eat meat, but not as much as I did a few years ago.
Because of this, I eat more fish and have really develop a taste for seafood. My favourite fish is salmon, especially wild salmon.
Fish is a very healthy food, and salmon is one of the best. Salmon is high in protein, loaded with healthy fats, and has been shown to be good for your heart, your brain, and even your skin.
I’m always looking for new and interesting dishes to make with this awesome fish. This recipe is easy to make, contains only a few ingredients, and is genuinely delicious. I made it for some friends last weekend and it was a great success – even with those who weren’t big fish fans. Serve with a big salad or your favourite low-carb veggies.
