The Almond Encrusted Salmon with Beurre Blanc sauce is one of my all time favorite dishes at Legal Seafood. I order it pretty much every time I am there! While the sauce is outta this world if I want to eat this dish regularly yet still stay on track with my nutrition plan the beurre blanc sauce has to go!
Good news is that this dish still tastes AMAZING even without the sauce so that is a win in my book!
If you don’t love almonds you could really use any nut you prefer. This would be great with walnuts or pecans as well. I love to serve this with some garlicy sauteed spinach and even some quinoa or brown rice. It’s an awesome meal to serve when you have guests because the dish looks so beautiful when plated so you can really WOW your guests!
