A Note from Feedfeed
Honey and chipotle are brushed over these salmon filets and then pan-fried in ghee-which has a higher smoke point than traditional butter, so you'll be able to get the salmon crispy without setting off the smoke alarm. Paired with some oven-roasted potato medallions and asparagus, you're going to love this full balanced dinner.
