3 Wild Alaska Gold Coho salmon portions (6 ounces each)

pomegranate seeds, for garnish (optional)

Olive Salsa

½ cup pitted green Castelvetrano olives
2 garlic cloves
2 scallions
1 cup fresh parsley leaves

For the olive salsa, add pitted olives, garlic, scallions, parsley, lemon juice, and olive oil to food processor and pulse until finely chopped. Use a small spatula to scrape down as needed. Transfer salsa to a bowl and set aside.
