Healthy Steamed Salmon with Mushrooms

I usually pan-fry my salmon fillet but I got tired of it. So I tried steaming the salmon one day and it was so good. I usually prepare the ingredients in the foil a day beforehand. On the day itself, I just need to add lemon juice and steam it. Super easy for lazy busy people. Not only that, it’s super healthy and delicious too. All the goodness like the steam juice captured inside the sealed foil… ohh heavenly.

Yum-yum!

Let’s steammmmm!!!

Prepare a large enough aluminium foil for the salmon and put in on a flat surface or plate.

Place salmon on the foil. Add mushrooms, cilantro, garlic, shallot and red chilies surrounding the fish. Sprinkle salt and pepper and drizzle with lemon juice.

Seal up the foil nicely and steam for 15-20 minutes. Serve warm. So easy right?
