Maple-Glazed Roasted Salmon
Submitted by: CHEF_MEG
Introduction
Like tuna, salmon is a fatty fish—but it’s a good-for-you fish that’s filled with omega-3 fatty acids(the heart-healthy fats). A 4-ounce serving of sockeye salmon will provide more than 100 percent of
the required daily amounts of vitamin D. Whenever possible, choose wild salmon over farm-raised to
minimize exposure to contaminants. Wild salmon is also more flavorful than farmed.
Salmon is an easy fish to cook, and it’s delicious poached, baked, roasted, or grilled. Want to
add a little more zest to this dish? Try adding 1 teaspoon of Dijon mustard to the marinade. Like tuna, salmon is a fatty fish—but it’s a good-for-you fish that’s filled with omega-3 fatty acids
