Serves: 4
The omega-3 fatty acids provided in salmon are used directly by our bodies to reduce inflammation; since inflammation is one of the biggest predictors of heart disease, this fish is an excellent heart-healthy choice.

This recipe is very yummy, the flavor was good and the lime zest and green onions topped it off nicely. It may be a bit spicy for children however. Thanks PCC!
