Equipment
1
measuring spoons
1
measuring cups
1
small glass bowl
1
8oz glass jar
Ingredients
1
Tbsp
Cumin
2
Tbsp
Paprika
¼
cup
Chili Powder
1
tsp
salt
1
tsp
pepper
1
Tbsp
garlic powder
When Cooking:
2-4
Tbsp
coconut oil
juice from one whole lemon
Instructions
Combine all ingredients and store in airtight jar.
To Make:
Rub onto both sides of thawed or fresh salmon.
Heat large skillet over medium heat and add 2-4 Tbsp coconut oil.
After oil is melted and skillet is hot, gently lay salmon flat.
Grill 3-5 minutes each side (depending on thickness). You will see that it is no longer bright pink, but a more opaque whitish pink. Do not over cook.
Serve immediately, bringing extra lemon juice to the table (we like the added zing from the lemon).
