Instructions

  1. Pat salmon dry with a paper towel, then season with salt and pepper.  
  2. Heat the avocado oil in a pan on medium high heat. Add salmon and cook for 3-4 minutes each side.
  3. While the salmon is cooking, make an arrowroot slurry by stirring together the arrowroot powder and water. Set aside. 
  4. Once the salmon is cooked, transfer to a plate.
  5. Turn the heat down to medium-low and sauté the minced garlic in the pan for 30 seconds. Add the orange juice, honey, tamari, thyme and arrowroot slurry. Whisk the ingredients together for 1-2 minutes or until slightly thickened.
  6. Add the salmon back to pan and spoon glaze over salmon before serving. 

Notes

  • I recommend using a seasoned cast iron pan to ensure the salmon doesn't stick to the pan. 
  • The glaze will continue to thicken on its own during cooling process.
