PREPARATION TIME | 30 MINS |
SERVES | 4 PEOPLE |
DIETS | PALEO, LOW CARB, LACTOSE-FREE |
INGREDIENTS
- 4 Bakkafrost salmon portions – 6oz (180g) each fillets
- Salt and pepper to taste
- ½ cup fresh cranberries (optional)
- Dill to garnish (optional)
SAUCE
- 1/3 cup (80 ml) honey
- 1/3 cup (80 ml) low sodium soy sauce
- 1/4 cup (60 ml) cranberry juice
- 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
- 2 garlic cloves, minced
INSTRUCTIONS
STEP 1
In a small bowl whisk together the honey, soy sauce, cranberry juice, paprika, and garlic.
STEP 2
Marinate the salmon by placing the portions in a bowl. Pour half of this sauce over the salmon fillets, coating them thoroughly. Refrigerate for 15 minutes or up to 2 hours.
STEP 3
Preheat oven to 400º F (200º C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Set aside.
STEP 4
Remove salmon portions from the marinade and place them on the prepared baking sheet. Season lightly with salt and pepper. Discard the marinade.
STEP 5
Bake for 10-15 minutes, or until completely cooked to your liking.
STEP 6
Meanwhile, prepare the sauce: Place the remaining sauce and fresh cranberries (if using) into a small saucepan over medium heat. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to low-medium and allow to simmer for 5 – 8 minutes, or until the sauce has reduced into a glaze and the cranberries are soft.
STEP 7
When the salmon is ready, remove it from the oven. Transfer to a serving plate and drizzle the reduced sauce over the salmon. Garnish with dill and serve.
