Salmon Recipes
Lots of salmon recipes give us options for cooking this delicious seafood. And, you don't need to do much to the salmon to make it even more scrumptious. You want to make sure your salmon recipe lets the salmon be centerpiece flavor. And, no recipe does this better than the smoked paprika salmon chunks.
You probably aren't thinking of cutting your salmon into chunks, but once you try this recipe, you'll become a believer. Just make sure that the centermost part of your salmon is thick so the chunks don't just shred. You can slice off the thinner ends of the salmon and cook those, too. Just consider them a bonus treat for you to munch on when preparing this recipe!
Keto Side Dishes
Salmon is a beautiful seafood to prepare. It makes the perfect keto side dish! And, there's so many ways to twist salmon into something new each time you eat it. From the way you cook it, poach, grill, pan sear, bake, to the way you 'shape' it, salmon can take on a new profile with a tad bit of creativity!
Keto Snacks
For this dish, I wanted 'chunks' hearty bite-size pieces that would each have its own individual personality from the cooking. Simply by cutting the salmon filet into chunks, you're able to transform a filet of salmon into a keto snack. And, keto snacks are healthier for you! You can have seconds, thirds and fourths.
The combination of the smoked hot paprika with the lemon pepper and then the honey mustard dill sauce and the fact that it's such a simple easy preparation will have you coming back again and again making this recipe~next time, maybe triangles!
