Here is a delicious and healthy salmon recipe I got from one of my friends when I was in college. I’ve been using it ever since! Salmon is one of the richest sources of omega-3 fatty acids EPA and DHA.
Ingredients
- 6 ounces salmon filet
- 2 teaspoons brown sugar
- 2 teaspoons low sodium soy sauce
- 2 teaspoons olive oil
Directions
- Heat olive oil in non-stick pan on medium heat. Add salmon and cook until about halfway done and flip.
- Mix brown sugar until it dissolves in soy sauce and add sauce to pan. Cook the salmon in the sauce until the fish is cooked through.
- Serve alone or over brown rice.

Salmon skin is my favorite part of the salmon, but a lot of people tend to be grossed out by it. Did you know that most of the omega-3 benefits actually come from the skin? If you don’t like the texture, try drizzling the skin side with olive oil, rubbing salt on it and placing it skin-down on a pan. Wait until it gets nice and crispy before flipping it. You’ll add a lot of flavor to the fish!
