Tuscan Butter Salmon by Delish
I love Salmon! Salmon is my favorite fish. You can grill, fry, bake or even make soup out of salmon.
If you have been following Casa Baluarte you may already noticed how many SALMON RECIPES I have here so when I saw a video on how to make HOW TO MAKE TUSCAN BUTTER SALMON from delish.com Facebook account I went to my local Asian grocery store to hunt for good pieces of salmon right after the video end. The Delish video made it look so easy and so delicious that I am not going to wait another day.
It was a success and it turned out really good. Give it a try and let me know.
