Lemon Garlic Salmon

Servings: 5
Ingredients:
4-3 oz salmon fillets
1/2 tsp black pepper
2 tsp olive oil
4 tbsp lemon juice
8 cloves garlic, minced
2 tbsp fresh dill, minced
Sprinkle salmon with pepper.
Heat a large skillet over medium- heat. Add olive oil and let it heat for 30 seconds.
Place the salmon in the skillet, skin-side up, and cook for 3 to 4 minutes. Flip the salmon and cook the other side for 3 more minutes. Move the salmon to one side of the pan.
Pour lemon juice into the empty space in the skillet and add the garlic cloves. Sauté for 60 seconds.
Spoon the garlic-lemon mixture over the salmon and cook until the fish flakes easily with a fork.
Sprinkle fresh dill on top before serving.
Enjoy!

Depending on your stage of kidney disease, specific nutrients in your diet should be limited. For instance, Chronic Kidney Disease (CKD) patients should limit protein, while End-Stage Kidney Disease (ESKD) patients should increase protein to offset what is lost during dialysis. If you are unsure about your nutrition requirements, speak with your Somatus dietitian or a medical provider.
