Super-Easy Lemon Salmon with Fluffy Quinoa and Steamed Broccoli


Salmon is probably one of the easiest fish to work with. I buy mine from IKEA, frozen and filleted. This way I do not need to clean the fish

or debone it. When I was a kid, my grandfather and I used to go to IKEA and we would always order Salmon with its authentic lemon sauce. At the time, salmon was very hard to find in Turkey. We always had hamsi or seabass at home and salmon at IKEA for me was a restaurant quality dish. 

My father is not very fond of salmon therefore whenever we go to a fish market, we always end up buying hamsi. Therefore, when my parents are away, I always pop some salmon out from the freezer and prepare myself a tiny feast. 

I cannot emphasise how easy it is to cook salmon. I know that aluminium foil is not the healthiest equipment however it is very easy to clean afterwards. We always have those lazy days that we don't even want to think about the dishes that we have to clean afterwards. Plus, if you don't use aluminium foil every single day, it is okay to be lazy sometimes. 

So, here is the Super Easy Salmon in Foil Recipe with Fluffy Quinoa recipe:
