Coconut & Macadamia Crusted Salmon

Rachel Morrow RACHEL MORROW

This delightful and oh-so-delicious dish is brimming with nutrients to heal and seal your gut. Salmon is high in omega-3 fatty acids to fight inflammation. Like all seafood, salmon also supplies zinc, which tends to be less well absorbed in people with digestive issues.

Serves:  2

Ingredients

  • ½ cup macadamia nuts
  • 1 cup shredded coconut
  • 1 egg
  • 2 salmon fillets, bones removed
  • 1 lemon
  • Green salad leaves, to serve
  • Olive oil
  • Salt and pepper, to taste

Method

  1. Preheat oven to 360°F (180°C).
  2. Combine macadamia nuts, coconut, and a little salt and pepper in a food processor to form a rustic crumbing mixture.
  3. Beat egg in a small shallow bowl.
  4. Dip salmon fillets in egg mixture before coating thoroughly with the crumbing mixture.
  5. Transfer crumbed fillets onto a lined or greased baking tray. Bake in oven for 15 minutes or until salmon is cooked to your preferred level of ‘doneness’.
  6. Serve salmon with a side of green salad leaves, drizzle of olive oil, and wedge of lemon.
