Yield: 2 servings
Ingredients:
¼ cup lemon juice
a large pinch of ground black pepper ( avoid if AIP)
¼ tsp + ⅛ tsp of ground turmeric, divided
½ tsp honey
½ pound of salmon ( about 8 ounces or roughly 220 grams) (this was 2 salmon fillets for me)
extra slices of lemon
an extra drizzle of honey
Directions:
- In a small bowl, mix the lemon juice, a large pinch of ground black pepper, ¼ tsp of ground turmeric, and ½ tsp of honey together.
- Place your salmon into a large ziplock bag, pour the lemon mixture into the bag, and put everything into the fridge to marinate for about 1 hour.
- Preheat your oven to 400 degrees.
- Remove the salmon from the bag and place on a cookie sheet.
- Cover the salmon fillets in two spoonfuls of the mixture from the bag, and then place the salmon skin side up.
- Cook for 6 minutes, and then flip the salmon so that it is flesh side up.
- Sprinkle ⅛ tsp of ground turmeric on top of the salmon and sprinkle some more pepper on top.
- Cover each filet with a slice of lemon and a drizzle of honey.
- Cook for 6 more minutes, or until the salmon flakes easily.
