INGREDIENTS
5 oz Salmon Fillet
1/4 cup Unsweetened Shredded Coconut
1 cup Cauliflower Rice
1 tsp Olive Oil
1 medium Lime
2 tbsp Fresh Cilantro
1 clove Garlic
Salt and Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
In a shallow dish, combine the shredded coconut with the zest of half a lime, a pinch of salt, and pepper.
Pat the salmon fillet dry. Brush lightly with a small amount of lime juice and then press the fillet into the coconut mixture to coat thoroughly.
Place the coated salmon on a baking sheet lined with foil or parchment paper. Bake in the preheated oven for about 12-15 minutes, or until the salmon flakes easily with a fork.
While the salmon bakes, heat the olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and sauté until fragrant, about 30 seconds.
Add the cauliflower rice to the skillet and cook for 3-4 minutes, stirring occasionally. Squeeze in the juice of the remaining half lime and season with salt and pepper.
Stir in the chopped cilantro just before removing the skillet from heat.
Plate the salmon alongside a serving of cilantro-lime cauliflower rice and garnish with additional fresh cilantro and a wedge of lime if desired.
