Sockeye salmon with lemon butter sauce is a dish made from grilled and marinated sockeye salmon with a lemon butter sauce. The lemon butter sauce is typically made with butter, lemon juice, garlic, diced onion, chopped parsley, salt, and pepper. Once the sockeye salmon is grilled, the lemon butter sauce is spread over the fish and allowed to soak into the meat, creating a delicious, rich, and tangy flavor that blends with the distinctive taste of sockeye salmon. This dish is usually served with raw vegetables, rice, or french fries.
