This is a delicious, sweet & tangy Salmon recipe. Enjoy outdoors on a sunny Summer day! Double (triple, etc.) the recipe to serve 2 (3, etc.).

Serves 1 

Ingredients

• 5 tablespoons Ocean’s Halo Teriyaki Sauce
• 1 tablespoon Sesame Oil
• 1/2 pound Salmon filet
• 2 heaping tablespoons Organic Unsweetened Shredded Coconut (try this brand: “Let’s Do… Organic”)
• Salt & Pepper

Prep

1. Preheat oven to 400F
2. Season salmon to taste with salt and pepper (don’t need too much salt!)
3. Have Teriyaki Sauce and Coconut Flakes measured out into small bowls for later use

Instructions

1. Add 1 Tbsp oil to HOT oven-safe saute pan over medium-high heat. Let heat for a few seconds.
2. Add Salmon skin-side UP to the hot pan (you should hear it sizzle as you lay it down!). Sear 4 minutes OR until salmon is thoroughly browned on this side.
3. Flip Salmon to skin side, drizzle 5 tablespoons of Ocean’s Halo Teriyaki Sauce on top of Salmon, then apply coconut flakes on top of Salmon too. Sear for another 4 minutes (or until Salmon skin is crispy).
4.  Remove pan from stove and insert into preheated oven. Cook for 10 minutes OR until Salmon is cooked to your preference (hint: when you see the white fat draining out of the Salmon, it is done).
5. Optional: To brown the coconut flakes, BROIL Salmon in oven for an additional 30 seconds to 1 minute (keep an eye on it so that it does not burn!) OR until coconut flakes are browned.
6. Carefully remove pan from oven. Serve and enjoy!
