Ingredient Notes

Salmon – When purchasing salmon, make sure to look for quality pieces, preferably wild caught. First, look for pieces that have a moist aspect, instead of dried out. Secondly, it’s a must to avoid any fillets that have browned spots on the centre or even around the edges of the fish. Most times, frozen fish is better than fresh since these were frozen right after they’re been caught, thus preserving their freshness. My salmon had skin on it, but skinless salmon works as well. Butter – Use unsalted butter so we maintain a balance with the sodium intake. Olive Oil – You can substitute with vegetable, sunflower, safflower or avocado oil. Garlic – Lots of garlic for that great garlic butter taste.
