My family are not big fans of fish unless we are talking sushi. But this dish gets double thumbs up and asking for seconds. It’s super simple and doesn’t take long to put together if your short on time. Salmon has always been my favorite fish, I just love the tender flaky texture of a perfect cooked salmon. Bonus points for is being super healthy and rich in Omega-3 Fatty Acids. Fun fact unlike most other fats, omega-3 fats are considered “essential,” meaning you must get them from your diet since your body can’t create them.
