This citrus-roasted salmon makes a beautiful centerpiece for a holiday meal. Wild king salmon is the best choice for this recipe thanks to its naturally buttery flavor, tender flake, and high omega-3 fatty acid content. Serve it alongside a winter salad with a citrus dressing and a simple side of roasted winter squash or sweet potatoes for a beautiful, balanced meal.
