Joyrobinson’s Creamy Herb Salmon With Almonds

Welcome to:

Hello Steemians!

Hubby and I had been dining outside lately eating heavy foods and more sweets. Last Sunday, I was craving for salmon after watching a delicious salmon recipes on Facebook so when hubby arrived from his four days trip back in England, I decided to cook something healthy, Salmon in Creamy Herb Sauce.

Salmon is incredibly a tasty fish. When it comes to nutrition, it’s an excellent source of omega-3 fatty acids, high in protein, vitamins and minerals including potassium and vitamin B12.

Salmon can be pretty expensive which is the why I make sure that I’m buying the fresh one and cook it in perfection with something else to make it more special. In this recipe, I cook it with a herb sauce mixture made of suate onion, garlic, butter, cherry tomatoes, parsley, heavy cream substitute with plain greek yogurt, grated pamesan cheeze and topped with crushed almonds on top.

It’s simple and easy to prepare. It taste a little bit like the Tuscan buttered Salmon except That I’m using parsley herb instead of basil (because my potted basil is now completely dead.) and topped it with crushed almonds.

Note: fresh salmon is packed with a six to eight days’ shelf life. (Source: (Jamie Oliver)[https://www.jamieoliver.com] .)
