This is a delicious, creative way to serve salmon. You can serve the salmon on a bed of cooked noodles (I enjoy fettuccine) or on its own with a side of vegetables. Ingredients:
1/2 cup water |
2 tablespoons lemon juice |
1/8 teaspoon chicken bouillon granules |
2 (4 ounce) fillets salmon |
1 tablespoon butter |
2 tablespoons capers |
ground black pepper to taste |
1 tablespoon chopped fresh parsley |
Directions:
1. Bring water and lemon juice to a boil in medium-sized skillet. Stir in chicken bouillon granules. Reduce heat to a simmer and place salmon fillets in pan. Cover and simmer over low heat, 10 minutes per inch of thickness, measured at thickest part; or until fish flakes when tested with a fork. Remove salmon from pan; keep salmon warm.
2. Boil remaining liquid in the skillet until it is reduced to approximately 1/4 cup. Whisk in butter and stir in capers. Spoon sauce over fish. Season with pepper and sprinkle with parsley.
