Ingredients

  • 1 lb salmon filets

  1. You can use any kind of store-bought pomegranate juice. I used my favorite – POM pomegranate juice :)

  2. Made the salmon last night and Loved it!! I bought the pomegranate juice that was unsweetened. I also grilled the salmon for about 25min. Delicious:)
