Salmon is a spectacularly excellent ketogenic fish because it’s full of omega-3 fatty acids. Atlantic salmon has the most fat, with about 18 grams of fat per 6-ounce portion.

Ingredients

  • 4 tbsp Golden Ghee, divided

  • 1 tbsp minced garlic

  • 1 tbsp fresh thyme leaves

  • Pinch sea salt

  • 4 (6-ounce) salmon fillets

  • 1 shallot, quartered

  • 1/4 lemon

Directions

  • Preheat the oven to 450°F.
  • In a small bowl, mix 2 tablespoons of ghee with the garlic, thyme, and salt. Set aside.
  • In a medium cast iron skillet, melt the remaining 2 tablespoons of ghee over medium heat. When the ghee is hot, add the salmon fillets, skin-side down. Wedge the shallot quarters between each salmon fillet. Sear the fillets for 1 minute, flip, and sear for another minute.
  • Break the shallot quarters into individual layers, and top the salmon with the seasoning mixture.
  • Transfer the skillet to the oven. Bake for 8 minutes.
  • Serve the salmon and roasted shallots hot, with a squeeze of lemon.
