This Lebanese Salmon Dish has shot up right into the top 10 all-time favourite salmon recipes. It has a sweet and sour taste to it. I never thought that salmon, pomegranate and lemon could go so well together.
I made it for myself, as my husband was away for work, and I was looking for a quick recipe that is healthy and would last me for a couple of days. I have to admit that I do not cook as much if I have nobody to share my meals with me. On the plus side, I had a lot of restaurant meals that week, catching up with old friends and tasting food I never would have thought of making myself.
I ate the salmon with some brown rice, in which I mixed in the rest of the pomegranate seeds to give it an extra crunch. Thinking about it now I think this dish would work well with some Tabbouleh and Pita Bread.

Wow great recipe! I love salmon and i cook it all the time but I always tend to cook it with thai flavours or just lemon and butter. This recipe is definitely going to be added to my salmon repertoire
Marita says
Thanks! Its always great to try something new. I love lemon and butter salmon as well, but its fun to try different combination of flavours as well x

Wow, some of my favourite ingredients packed into one dish! I'll have to see where I can find pomegranate molasses in my area, as I would definitely like to try this. 🙂
