Recipe
4 tbsp. coconut aminos
4 cloves garlic, chopped
1 tbsp. honey
1 tsp. toasted sesame oil
8 green onions
1 red bell pepper, thinly sliced
1 green bell pepper, thinly sliced
1x 3” piece fresh ginger, peeled & sliced into thin matchsticks
¼ tsp. salt
¼ tsp. black pepper
4x 6 oz. salmon filets
1 tbsp. sesame seeds
How to Prepare
Preheat the oven to 350°F.
Cut 4 x 12” squares of parchment paper. Fold each square in half, then cut a heart shape out of each square, using as much parchment as possible.
In a microwave-safe bowl, whisk together the coconut aminos, garlic, honey and toasted sesame oil. Microwave this mixture on high for 30 seconds.
Chop 6 of the green onions into 2” pieces. Place the green onion pieces, red and green bell peppers and ginger on one side of each parchment heart. Sprinkle them with salt and black pepper.
Place a salmon filet on each heart, on top of the vegetable mixture. Spoon 2 tablespoons of the coconut amino mixture over each salmon filet and then sprinkle over the sesame seeds.
Fold the parchment hearts closed and crimp the edges to seal the packets.
Place the packets on a baking sheet and bake the packets in the hot oven for 12-15 minutes, until they are slightly puffed and the salmon flakes easily with a fork. Open 1 package to check the salmon is cooked.
While the packets are baking, thinly slice the remaining green onions.
To serve, open the packets at the table and top each with the sliced green onions.
