Ingredients
- 1/2 cup of water
- 2 Tbsp lemon juice
- 1/8 tsp chicken (or vegetable) bouillon granules
- 2-4 oz fillets wild salmon
- 1 Tbsp butter
- 2 Tbsp capers
- ground pepper to taste
- 1 Tbsp chopped fresh parsley
Directions
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 the thickest part, or until fish flakes when tested with a fork. Remove salmon from pan. Keep salmon warm.
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.
Notes
This is the perfect dish for entertaining. Not only is it super fast and easy, it is delicious and looks like you spent hours preparing it. If you don’t like lemon juice, feel free to substitute with a dry white wine. Enjoy!
