About
I consider salmon one of the most versatile fish. The recipes are countless. Not only is a rich in protein and omega-3 fatty acids, but I also found it super delicious and so easy to prepare and cook.
The below recipe is as simple as it comes. While the salmon is marinating you can work on the corn and bell peppers. Dice the bell peppers small for easy cooking. The corn I would recommend fresh corn ears during the summer months. Even though the frozen one is perfect, nothing tastes as wonderful as the fresh one.
