A quick cooking method that provides long-lasting flavor
For all the salmon lovers out there, king salmon, also called Chinook salmon, is the largest of the Pacific salmon. These salmon can have a reddish-orange to pinkish-red to nearly white color. Unlike some fruits and vegetables, however, the color of the fish doesn’t indicate different nutrients or varying levels of nutrients. All king salmon is rich in protein and healthy omega-3 fatty acids, which can help safeguard your cardiovascular health.

This recipe illustrates how easy it is to increase flavor in foods by increasing the surface area that is exposed to heat. When you grill small, lean and thin pieces of foods, they will cook quickly, which reduces the risk of burning and charring. This also lowers the risk of carcinogens being produced during the grilling process.

1 whole lemon, zested
