Ingredients
Salmon
- 1 pound salmon 2 skinless filets
- 1 tablespoon coconut aminos
- 2 tablespoons everything but the bagel seasoning store-bought or homemade - see below
Salad
- 1 cup baby spinach or arugula
- 1/2 cup cilantro tough stems removed
- 1/4 cup parsley leaves tough stems removed
- 1/4 cup mint leaves torn
- 1/8 cup dill roughly torn
- 2 tablespoons lemon juice
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 2 tablespoons sunflower seeds
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 250ºF. Line a rimmed baking sheet with foil and then rub with a bit of avocado oil to prevent sticking. Lay the salmon on the prepared sheet and rub with coconut aminos and sprinkle with bagel seasoning. Bake at 250ºF 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, combine all salad ingredients in a large bowl except for the lemon juice and olive oil. Just before serving, add the oil and lemon juice. Season to taste with a bit of salt and pepper and toss to coat everything evenly. Serve along with the salmon.
