Yemurai Crawford

It’s Salmon Time…

A seared salmon sandwich is such a comfort without all the additional calories. The toasted wheat bread, juicy beef steak tomatoes. onions, lettuce and spicy mayo just turn this fish all the way up. This is one of my go to sandwiches when I am craving something a little different from the usual guilty pleasure. I also replaced the fries usually made with potatoes with zucchini.

This recipe is super easy and delicious. I am sharing this recipe with you in conjunction with YouTube sis Yem. Yem asked to collaborate on having healthy hair and a healthy body. So today I am going to share with you this clean recipe that is so delicious.

Let’s get into this recipe!


Seared Salmon Sandwich

What You Will Need:

  • Salmon
  • Wheat Buns
  • Thinly Sliced Red Onion
  • Arugula
  • Medium Sliced Beef Steak Tomatoes
  • Siracha Wasabi Mayo
  • 1/8 Tsp of Salt
  • 1/8 Tsp of Pepper
  • 2 Tbsp of Avocado Oil
  • 1 Large Non Stick Skillet  

Prep:

  1.  Salt and Pepper the fish on both sides then sit aside. J. Delawcious seasoning would be great here as well.

Cook:

  1. On medium high heat add oil to the large skillet. Heat until small smoke puff appears.
  2. Once the pan shows the puff of light smoke, add fish gently to the skillet. Once added do not move the fish.
  3. The fish will give from the pan after 4 minutes. Flip over and allow another 4 minutes to cook. 4 minutes each side cooks the fish medium. However if you like it more done, cook it for 5 minutes each side.
  4.  Remove fish from the pan and allow to rest for half the time you cooked it for.
  5. Toast your wheat bun.
  6. On the toasted wheat bun add tomatoes, onions, arugula and siracha mayo. Close the bun and enjoy.

Serve:

This can be served with Zucchini fries or a fresh salad.

Happy Cooking!
