Honey Sesame Seared Salmon
Ingredients:
- .25 c Coconut Aminos Or Tamari
- 4 tbsp Toasted Sesame Oil
- 1 tbsp Lemon Juice
- 2 tbsp Honey
- 1 tsp Ground Ginger
- 2 cloves Garlic minced or 1/4 tsp garlic powder
- 1 lb Salmon Fillets
- 2 tbsp Coconut Oil
- 2 bunches Green Onions chopped
- 1 tbsp Sesame Seeds toasted for serving
Instructions:
- When you're ready to cook the salmon, heat a skillet, frying pan, or cast iron pan (I use cast iron) over medium heat. Add a tablespoon or two of coconut oil.
- Place the salmon in the pan, skin side down. The salmon should sizzle when it hits the pan and this will sear the skin.
- Cook skin side down for 2–3 minutes and then flip the salmon.
- Pour the remaining marinade in the pan, lower the heat to medium-low, and cook the salmon for 3–5 minutes, or until done.
- Salmon will be done when it flakes with a fork.
- Serve with fresh chopped chives or green onions, toasted sesame seeds, and a drizzle of toasted sesame oil.
- NOTE: Cooking time will vary, depending on the thickness of your salmon fillet.
