Healthy Salmon Homemade Sandwich
For the past couple of days my daughter and I have been complaining about eating meat but mainly chicken. Every year when the weather gets warm I get tired of cooking and eating meat and chicken and I just eat a lot of fruits.So today she said to me how about making a grilled salmon sandwich with a homemade dressing. I figured why not, it sounds healthy and it's a change of menu. I was up for the challenge, especially with making the homemade sauce.
I used the following ingredients:
2 pieces of salmon
2 lemons/limes
Coconut cooking oil
Clo's Seafood seasoning mix
Clo's Homemade Seasoning includes:
Lemon pepper seasoning,fish seasoning,old bay seasoning,fish seasoning,garlic salt, basil,dried celery,chili powder.
Prep
Place the frozen salmon pieces in
a large bowl of warm water
with 1 squeezed lemon to thaw.
Remove from water and rinse with cool water.
Preheat toaster oven on broil at 400 degrees and
set the timer for 45 minutes or your regular oven.
Finely slice the second lemon and set aside
Place pieces into a large dish
For your toaster oven, line the oven tray
with a piece of foil
Coat both sides of the salmon with
a very small amount of coconut oil
(oil of your choice)
Sprinkle and cover both sides with Clo's seasoning
Sprinkle some basil
Cooking
Place the pieces of salmon onto
the covered tray a few inches apart.
Cover each salmon with 2-3 slices of lemon
depending on the size of the pieces.
After 22 minutes or when it starts to get some
color ,flip the salmon and switch the lemons
to the top of the salmon.
Continue cooking for the remainder of the 45 mn
In the meanwhile, start working on the
Homemade Dressing.
Ingredients:
2 tbsp of sweet relish
1 tbsp of yellow mustard
1 1/2Mayonaise
1tsp of basil paste
A few sprinkles of Clo's seasoning
Old Bay seasoning
Preparing the dressing:
In a bowl add 1 1/2 cup of mayonnaise
2 tbsp of Relish
Sprinkle Clo's seasoning to your taste
2 sprinkles of basil
1 tbsp of mustard
Chili pepper
Old Bay seasoning
Sprinkle a small amount of old bay seasoning
Mix all ingredients using a small spatula
and refrigerate
Sandwich garnishments:
Ingredients:
2 Romaine lettuce leaves
1/4 of a cucumber
Wash your cucumber and finely slice
8 slices and set aside in a bowl
Wash the romaine lettuce leaves and
set it on a dry paper towel
Your oven timer should be going off
right about now.
Remove the salmon pieces and place them
on a cutting board
Remove the lemon pieces
Slice the pieces of salmon in the shape of strips
Sandwich Prep

from the refrigerator

both the left and the right with the sauce

he right side of the bun
