Ingredients

Salmon

Salad

  • 1 English cucumber I like to use a mandolin but a vegetable peeler works just as well
  • 1 medium carrot shaved thin (I like to use a mandolin but a vegetable peeler works just as well)
  • 4 radishes shaved thin (I like to use a mandolin but a vegetable peeler works just as well)
  • 3 tablespoons lemon juice 1 lemon
  • zest of 1 lemon
  • 3 tablespoons pistachios chopped, omit for nut-free
  • 2 tablespoons parsley minced

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 200ºF. Line a rimmed baking sheet with foil or parchment paper and grease with a little bit of avocado oil to prevent sticking. Lay salmon on top and set aside.
  • Combine the apricots, water, glucomann, coconut aminos, sriracha, garlic, and apple cider vinegar in a blender and process until smooth.
  • Rub the apricot mixture onto the salmon and bake at 200ºF for 20-35 minutes, or until the fish is just beginning to flake, or registers 120ºF inside. It will have a more raw appearance but be cooked at this point.
  • While the salmon cooks, prepare the salad. Combine all ingredients in a large bowl and toss to coat evenly.
  • Distribute salad between two serving plates. Top with salmon and serve with a garnish of parsley and pistachio.
