Maple Dill salmon

It’s another salmon recipe. I love the smell of dill and the taste of dill. The simple dill salmon combines some of my favourite ingredients to create a mouthwatering experience. My Maple Dill Salmon is sweet and tangy. The grassy,aromatic taste of dill compliments the dish.

Fish is an important part of any diet. Along with Omega 3 fatty acids it contains vitamin D and B2. Fish also has many minerals including potassium making it a recommendation from the Heart Association. It is a great source of protein and needs to come to our table more often. The recipes are endless. One of my favourites in Italy is this one from Jamie Oliver https://thehappyfoodie.co.uk/recipes/jamie-olivers-fish-in-crazy-water-acqua-pazza e

Cover a large pan with parchment paper. Brush the parchment paper with olive oil. Place salmon on the Partman Schmidt paper. Put in a 400° oven for 12 to 15 minutes. Meanwhile sauté some spinach and olive oil and garlic. I also roasted some cauliflower as a side for the salmon.
