After reading articles like these that explain exactly why you need to include Omega-3s in your diet, I wanted to share a delicious Omega-3 meal with you! So here’s a recipe for Grilled Salmon with Lime Butter.

Ingredients:

6 (6-oz.) pieces center-cut salmon fillet (about 1 inch thick) with skin1 1/2 teaspoons finely grated fresh lime zest6 tablespoons lime butter sauce (recipe below)

Preparation:

Prepare grill for cooking over medium-hot charcoal (moderate heat for gas).Season salmon all over with salt and pepper, then grill, flesh sides down, on lightly oiled grill rack (covered only if using gas grill) for 4 minutes. Turn fillets over and grill (covered only if using gas grill) until just cooked through, 4 to 6 minutes more. Sprinkle fillets with zest and top each with 1 tablespoon lime butter sauce.

*If you don’t have a grill, you can broil the salmon and use the lime butter sauce.

Lime Butter Sauce:

1 large garlic clove, chopped1/4 cup fresh lime juice1 teaspoon salt1/2 teaspoon black pepper1 stick (1/2 cup) unsalted butter, melted
