Larry’s Salmon Fajitas
Lawrence Raimon of Santee, California, learned how to cook at an early age by watching cooking shows on television. Raimon and his wife collect spices from around the world (they currently have close to 150), which he likes to experiment with in the kitchen. These savory salmon fajitas reflect his cooking style - fresh, healthful, and quick.
