Share:
Ingredients
- 3 tablespoons coconut oil
- 3 tablespoons honey
- 2 tablespoons lemon juice
- 4 wild caught salmon filets about 5 ounces each
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
Instructions
- Place an oven rack 9-10 inches from the broiler. Preheat the broiler to high.
- Add the coconut oil to a large cast iron skillet (or an oven safe frying pan). Place over medium heat to melt the coconut oil (about 3 minutes). Stir in the honey. Then stir in the lemon juice.
- Add the salmon (skin side down, if applicable) to the skillet. Baste the salmon with the sauce. Cook for 4 minutes.
- Baste with the sauce again. Sprinkle the top of the salmon with salt.
- Transfer the skillet to the oven and broil for 4-5 minutes, until the tops of the salmon start to darken in spots.
- Remove the salmon from the skillet and let it rest for 3-4 minutes.
- Serve warm drizzled with some extra pan sauce.
Notes
- The nutrition information includes 1/4 of the sauce. It's good to have a lot of sauce for basting the fish. But, all of the sauce doesn't typically get consumed, reducing the calories of this dish.
