Ingredients

  • 1 lb wild-caught salmon
  • 2 tbsp lemon juice
  • 2 tbsp coconut aminos or low sodium soy sauce
  • 2 tbsp honey
  • 1 tbsp sesame oil

Instructions

  1. 1
    Whisk together lemon juice, coconut amino acids or soy sauce, honey and sesame oil.  Divide marinade in half.
  2. 2
    Place wild-caught salmon fillet in a shallow dish and pour half of marinade over the top.  Let sit for at least 1 hour refrigerated.
  3. 3
    Oil an outdoor grill and heat to medium heat, about 350F.  Grill salmon until flesh is opaque, about 5 minutes for every inch of thickness on each side.  You can also use a grill pan to cook salmon on the stovetop as an alternative to an outdoor grill.

    Pour reserved marinade over the top before serving and a sprinkle of optional multi-colored sesame seeds. Try with a side of steamed, mixed veggies and lemon wedges.
Note: Adjust spices to taste. Enjoy your meal!
