- 1 2-pound salmon fillet, skin on

- 1 garlic clove minced
- 1 tablespoon minced sweet onion
- 1 cup walnuts chopped
- ½ cup dried cranberries chopped
- Kosher or fine sea salt
- Freshly ground black pepper

- In a large saucepan on medium, add 1 tablespoon of butter and the garlic and onion. Cook until translucent, stirring constantly. Remove from the pan and set aside.
