Tips:

  • Choose the right salmon fillet: Look for a fillet that is about 1 inch thick and has a vibrant orange-pink color. Avoid fillets that are thin or have a grayish color.
  • Season the salmon simply: Salt and pepper are all you need to season the salmon. You can also add a squeeze of lemon juice or a sprinkle of fresh herbs, such as dill or thyme.
  • Steam the salmon gently: Steaming is a delicate cooking method that helps to retain the salmon's natural flavor and texture. Place the salmon on a steamer basket over a pot of simmering water. Cover the pot and steam the salmon for 8-10 minutes, or until it is cooked through. A good way to monitor is by checking the internal temperature using a meat thermometer. It is recommended to reach an internal temperature of 145 degrees Fahrenheit
  • Make the avocado salsa while the salmon is steaming: This will allow the flavors of the salsa to meld together. Simply combine diced avocado, diced tomato, red onion, cilantro, lime juice, salt, and pepper in a bowl. You can also add a pinch of chili powder or cayenne pepper for a bit of heat. Serve the salsa over the steamed salmon. Enjoy!

Conclusion:

Steamed salmon with avocado salsa is a light, healthy, and flavorful dish that is perfect for a weeknight dinner. The salmon is cooked gently, so it retains its natural flavor and texture. The avocado salsa is a refreshing and flavorful topping that complements the salmon perfectly. This dish is also a good source of protein, omega-3 fatty acids, and vitamins. So, next time you're looking for a healthy and delicious seafood dish, give this recipe a try.
