Smoked Wild Salmon on the Stovetop Smoker
Yield: 2-4 servings

What fish lover doesn't love smoked salmon? Make it at home with a smoker that fits right on top of the stove. It can be purchased online for under $40. Choose wild Alaskan salmon for health and sustainability.

1 tablespoon each dried dill and parsley
3/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
1 (1 pound) wild Alaskan salmon fillet, 3/4-inch thick
1/2 lemon, thinly sliced

1. Follow brand instructions for preparing the smoker and smoking chips.

2. Mix herbs, salt, pepper and garlic powder in a small dish. Rub spices onto the fillet. Place lemon slices on top of the fish, overlapping them slightly for a decorative effect.

3. Place fillet on the rack and close the lid. Heat burner to medium. Place the smoker on the burner and cook 25 minutes, until the fish flakes open with the touch of a fork. The tender lemon slices can be eaten along with the fish.
