Salmon Fit for a Sophisticated Grizzly Bear
As you may have seen on Twitter, I decided to buy wild caught, sockeye salmon instead of one of the other types because I enjoyed the idea of eating like a grizzly bear. I told my husband to try throwing it at me for the full experience. He declined. Salmon is expensive and we shouldn't play with our food. Instead, I settled down and made a very simple and tasty recipe. Ingredients: 2 salmon filets* Salt (I use kosher sea salt) 6 tablespoons of butter 1 tablespoon of honey 1 lemon Fresh dill *I made two filets. We ate one and shredded the other to put in a salad. Directions Preheat the oven to 400 degrees. Place each filet on a piece of aluminum foil. Place the fish and foil on a rimmed baking pan. Sprinkle the salmon with kosher sea salt. Melt the butter. Add the honey to the melted butter. Make sure to stir it well to dissolve. Squeeze in the juice of 1/2 a lemon. Stir everything together. I usually taste it at this point and adjust the honey and/or lemon to suit my taste....
