About the Salmon

I highly recommend wild caught salmon for this recipe. Wild caught salmon has many benefits over farm-raised salmon, including being higher in nutrients like omega 3 fatty acids and vitamin D. It also tastes more flavorful due to its natural diet, and is typically fresher than farm-raised fish.

Additionally, wild caught salmon supports healthier ocean environments whereas farmed raised fish can cause water pollution and spread diseases to other sea life. For all these reasons it’s best to opt for wild caught when choosing your seafood!

This recipe for Sweet Soy Glazed Salmon is sure to become a new favorite in your household. It’s quick, easy and full of flavor – what more could you ask for?

Notes:
This recipe would also work with other types of seafood such as shrimp, cod or scallops. Just keep in mind, you may need to adjust cooking time depending on the type and size of seafood used.

For best results, use seafood that is fresh and not previously frozen. Additionally, be sure to season the seafood generously before pan-frying it in butter. Enjoy!
