Ingredients

Teriyaki Salomon

  • 1 lb salmon - cut into filets
  • 1 tbsp lime juice
  • 1 tbsp honey
  • 1/3 cup coconut aminos or soy sauce
  • 2 tsp sesame oil
  • 2 tsp freshly chopped ginger
  • 1 cloves fresh garlic - minced
  • 1 tbsp rice wine vinegar
  • Optional: sesame seeds for topping

Broccoli Slaw

  • 12 oz bag of broccoli slaw or broccoli stalks cut into shreds
  • 1/4 cup lime juice
  • 1/4 cup mayo
  • 1 tbsp honey

Instructions

  • Marinate the salmon and prepare the slaw at least 6 hours prior to cooking - I like to do this first thing in the morning
  • Cut the salmon into filets if you need to
  • Prepare the salmon marinade by combining the lime juice, honey, coconut aminos or soy, sesame oil, ginger, garlic and rice vinegar in a small bowl and pour over salmon
  • Toss salmon in the marinade to coat, cover, and place in the refrigerator for at least 6 hours
  • Prepare the broccoli slaw by adding lime juice, mayo, and honey to a bowl and mixing
  • Then toss the slaw into the liquid being sure to coat all of the slaw in the liquid
  • Cover the bowl and place in the fridge to chill and soak for 6 hours while the salmon marinates
  • Remove the salmon and slaw from the fridge after marinating
  • Coat a frying pan in a little avocado oil and heat over medium-low heat
  • Once warm add the salmon to the pan skin side down and leave the excess marinade on the side
  • Cook over medium-low heat skin side down for 4 minutes
  • Flip and cook for another 4 minutes
  • remove the salmon from the pan and add the marinade to the pan
  • Simmer with marinade for 3 minutes over medium heat
  • Add the salmon back into the pan and cook skin side up for 1 minute
  • Flip the salmon and cook skin side down for an additional minute while spooning the excess marinade over the top
  • Sprinkle some sesame seeds over the salmon and serve with the slaw and rice or cauliflower rice
