Salmon Recipes Featuring Morey’s Fresh Fish and Seafood

Wellness experts consistently recommend incorporating fish into your daily diet as one step to eat healthier. Fish are rich in nutrients like omega-3 fatty acids (the good fats) and usually rich in vitamins and minerals like calcium, iron, and potassium. Plus, fish are high in protein and lower in fat than other sources of protein, like beef.

In this post, we are featuring salmon from Morey’s Fine Fish & Seafood.

Salmon has a very distinctive, savory flavor. Meaty and tender, oily, and rich, salmon is a versatile fish to cook with options like steaming, sauteeing, smoking, baking, grilling, and poaching being the most common.

Pro tip: As a fatty fish, salmon cooks well on the barbecue.

Morey’s has some great recommendations here for how to cook your fish, like meeting the recommended cooked seafood internal temperature of 145 degrees and using foil and spray if grilling.

Once you determine which cooking method you prefer for your salmon, try this corn chowder recipe they recommend:
