Sockeye salmon is flavorful and rich. It has a relatively high fat content, loaded with omega-3 fatty acids. It is not like the common pink salmon which is also delicious but sometimes needs a few more ingredients to enhance it's flavor. I like to highlight the natural taste of Sockeye salmon. This recipe is incredibly simple and makes a healthy and delicious meal.
