Salmon is rich in omega-3 fatty acids, which are known for supporting heart health and reducing inflammation. Avocados provide healthy fats and are packed with vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants that promote skin and eye health. Together, this combination creates a flavorful meal that's as delicious as it is nourishing.

Ingredients
Salmon:
4 salmon filets, 4-5 ounces each
2 Tbsp olive oil
3 garlic cloves, minced
½ tsp ground paprika
¼ tsp chili powder

2 Tbsp lemon juice
1/2 small red onion, finely chopped
