I feature keto salmon recipes a lot – because I eat a whole lot of salmon. It’s so easy to make and full of healthy fats – and is delicious for literally any meal! This garlic butter recipe is one I use in all sorts of dishes – it’s my secret ingredient for my keto garlic butter salmon recipe which everyone asks for how to make it all the time – but also is divine on chicken breast, vegetables and on baked cauliflower.
I serve this over roasted asparagus – the combination of asparagus and salmon is a marriage made in heaven and is filling and delicious. The secret is the keto garlic butter sauce that is perfect with the fatty salmon to bring out the flavors. I use fresh parsley to a hint of fresh herbiness, color and extra flavor. I prefer Italian flat parsley but you can also use curly parsley — what’s great about parsley is that it helps with digestion and is rich in antioxidants, is a natural diuretic and is rich in nutrients that support eye health and heart health – and it’s delicious! So I chop up a generous amount of parsley in my low carb garlic butter recipe, the more the better!
