Salmon fillets

Salmon fillets are longitudinal cuts taken from salmon, a fish known for its pink flesh and delicate flavor. These fillets often retain the skin and may or may not contain the central bone, making them ideal for various culinary preparations, from grilling to baking or quick sautéing.

Salmon is primarily native to the cold waters of the northern hemisphere, especially in regions such as the North Atlantic and North Pacific. Its popularity in cooking is due to its juicy texture and pleasant flavor, as well as the nutritional benefits it provides.

Among its nutritional properties, its high content of omega-3 fatty acids, high-quality proteins, B-complex vitamins, and minerals such as selenium stand out. These characteristics make it a healthy food that helps improve cardiovascular and brain health.

In different Spanish-speaking countries, salmon fillets may have different names, although the most common and understood is "filetes de salmón". They may also be called "lomitos de salmón" in some regions, referring to similar cuts of meat or fish.
