My family are not big on salmon and that’s ok, it just means more for me. It cooks so quickly I often make it for lunch when I have the house to myself. The recipe is high in fat and gives you a feeling of satiety for a long time afterwards. It also makes extra Tzatziki which is nice for a snack with some cut up veggies.
Salmon can be a bit expensive, especially organic wild salmon, so it is nice to purchase a whole fillet rather than just a steak, it’s more cost effective. Even if it is just yourself eating it. You can flake it up for a salad the next day, or make salmon cakes.
Place lemon slices on salmon, season with salt and pepper.
While salmon is cooking, mix the remaining ingredients together.
Taste and add more salt or lemon if desired.
