Perhaps the most well-known fish in the keto world, salmon is rich with healthy omega-3 fatty acids and contains zero carbohydrates. The skin on salmon supplies collagen, B vitamins, and vitamin D. Thanks to the Foodi™ Grill, the salmon skin in this recipe crisps up so well, it’s like eating a potato chip on top of a rich, juicy fish fillet.
