Ingredientes

• Salmon fillet
• lime or lemon juice
• cumin (1/4 teaspoon)
• saffron (1/2 teaspoon)

• 1 potato (sliced into circles)
• 1 onion (sliced into circles)
• butter or olive oil (just a little bit)

Preparación

1. 1

   Oven-Baked: Preheat oven to 370°F (190°C). Place onion slices under and over the salmon, arrange potato slices around it, and bake for 30–45 minutes until golden and flaky.

2. 2

   Grilled: Place the salmon on a preheated grill and cook for about 4–6 minutes per side.

3. 3

   Pan-Seared: Heat a nonstick pan, add a little olive oil or butter, and cook the salmon for 3–4 minutes per side until crispy outside and tender inside.

4. 4

   Unique Flavor: The saffron adds a luxurious aroma and subtle sweetness.

5. 5

   Healthy & Nutritious: Salmon is rich in omega-3s, making this dish a wholesome option.

    Add a fresh cucumber-yogurt dip for balance.

11. 11

    For a lighter option, serve with a crisp garden salad.

    Don’t use too much lime juice—it can overpower the saffron.

13. 13

    Let the salmon marinate for at least 20 minutes for maximum flavor.

14. 14

    Always preheat your oven or grill for even cooking.

15. 15
