Next, figure out how many calories you burn through daily activity and add that number to your BMR. This gives you an estimate of how many calories you need to maintain your current weight. After you've figured out your maintenance calories, next figure out what percentage of your diet will come from protein.
This is one of the fastest and easiest ways to put leftover salmon (or any fish, for that matter) to work â and it's also my favorite. Grab a few corn tortillas, chop up some toppings â avocado, red onion, pickled radish, mango, and cilantro all pair well here â and make some tacos for a quick dinner.
Let the salmon absorb the heat from the food that is almost cooked rather than letting it come directly into contact with the frying pan. If you have to pan fry salmon by itself, put a little bit of olive oil or white wine in the bottom of the skillet to keep it from sticking or drying out.
