Scale
- 1 lb fresh smoked salmon or wild salmon fillet
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 2 tablespoons lemon juice
- 1 tablespoon honey or maple syrup
- Fresh dill and parsley for garnish

Instructions

- In a small bowl, whisk together the olive oil, lemon juice, and honey to create a vibrant marinade.
- Gently brush the marinade over the smoked salmon, ensuring each piece is coated evenly.
- Let it sit for about 15-20 minutes to absorb the flavors.
- Optional: lightly grill or sear the salmon for a few minutes on each side for added smoky flavor.
- Garnish with fresh dill and parsley, and serve with thin slices of red onion and capers if desired.
Notes
- Keep leftover smoked salmon tightly wrapped in plastic wrap or in an airtight container in the refrigerator. Consume within 2-3 days for optimal freshness.
- For longer storage, consider freezing it, but note that this may affect the texture slightly.
