Sesame Salmon Lettuce Wraps
These Salmon Lettuce Wraps are a delicious and healthy dish that combines tender pieces of salmon coated in a savory sesame glaze.
Ingredients
- 3 lbs Salmon I prefer wild caught
- ½ cup Coconut Aminos
- 1 tablespoon Sesame Oil
- ½ tablespoon Garlic
- 1 teaspoon Ground Ginger
- 1 head Cabbage or 2 heads Bibb lettuce
- 1 cup Jicama sliced thinly
- 1 cup Radish sliced thinly
- 1 cup Shredded Carrots
- ½ cup Creamy Sesame Dressing
- Salt and Pepper to taste
Instructions
- Start by cutting the salmon into 1 inch cubes. I do this with the skin on.
- Toss the cubes of salmon into a large zip top back and add coconut aminos, sesame oil, garlic, and ground ginger. Zip the bag close and make sure all the salmon is coated. Place the bag in the fridge for about 30 minutes.
- After 30 minutes (or longer) heat a pan to medium heat and put the salmon plus the marinade into the pan. Cook the salmon for about 8 minutes, flipping it half way through. If you have the skin on, remove the skin at this point.
- Carefully pull off leaves from the cabbage or lettuce head, rinse, and dry thoroughly. I usually use about 3-4 leaves of cabbage per person.
- In the cabbage or lettuce cups add jicama, radish, carrots and finally salmon.
- Drizzle Creamy Sesame sauce on top of the lettuce wrap, serve and enjoy!
