This simple salmon recipe is loaded with delicious flavor. Salmon fillets are seasoned with a combination of lemon, capers, and butter, then sous vide until perfectly cooked and flake-tender. The tomato rice side dish is uniquely cooked in Suvie’s vegetable zone, timed right along with the salmon. This finished rice dish resembles a tomatoey risotto. A light sprinkle of fresh chives over the finished dish adds a nice verdant pop of flavor.
