"This is a delicious, creative way to serve salmon. You can serve the salmon on a bed of cooked noodles (I enjoy fettuccine) or on its own with a side of vegetables."

INGREDIENTS (Nutrition)

  • 1/2 cup water
  • 2 tablespoons lemon juice
  • 1/8 teaspoon chicken bouillon granules
  • 2 (4 ounce) fillets salmon
  • 1 tablespoon butter
  • 2 tablespoons capers
  • ground black pepper to taste
  • 1 tablespoon chopped fresh parsley

DIRECTIONS

  1. 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 thickest part; or until fish flakes when tested with a fork. Remove salmon from pan; keep salmon warm.
