Great fresh fish is hard to come by in land-locked Colorado. Salmon is so packed full of goodness; however, we have been disappointed with the quality of what we have bought locally. Our hair stylist, Karly, turned us on to a company out of the northwest. Vital Choice delivers fresh frozen salmon to your doorstep in about 3 days from ordering, protected with dry ice. The container can be returned for no charge to any FedEx location. The salmon and salmon burgers are wonderful. You can thaw the salmon fillets in 20 minutes in cold water and the burgers are placed on the grill frozen and are done in 8 minutes. Highly recommend the company. They also have other fish choices besides salmon. We have tried the albacore tuna, halibut and the scallops. All wonderful. Not inexpensive, but quality is unsurpassed.
This is one of my favorite recipes for salmon. As you can see love the lemon on top. It looks like overkill of lemon, but trust me, it is delicious! Obtained recipe from internet.
Ingredients:
- 2 salmon fillets
- 3 tablespoons roasted almond slivers, chopped
- 1 tablespoon butter (melted) ( I use ghee)
- 1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil
- 1 tablespoon freshly grated Parmesan cheese
- 2 teaspoons fresh parsley, chopped
- 1/2 teaspoon lemon peel, minced
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 lemon, sliced and seeds removed
- salt and pepper to taste
Directions:
Rinse fish and pat dry. Place in an oven safe glass dish and add olive oil and coat salmon evenly. Add salt and pepper to taste.
Combine almonds, butter, Parmesan, parsley, lemon peel and garlic. Distribute evenly on top of the salmon and then the lemon slices.
Bake in a preheated 400-degree oven for 16-18 minutes depending on thickness.
Squeeze the lemon on the salmon and enjoy!
