4 servings
For the salmon
- 4 salmon fillets (about 5–6 oz each), skin-on
- 1 tbsp avocado oil
- ½ tsp fine sea salt
- ¼ tsp black pepper
For the dressing
- 3 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
- 2 tbsp fresh lime juice (from about 2 limes)
- 1 tbsp tamari
- 1 tbsp raw honey
Chef's tipUse the same amount. Maple syrup is a little thinner and less sticky than honey. - 1 tsp fresh ginger, finely grated
- 1 tsp toasted sesame oil
- 1 clove garlic, finely grated
Chef's tipSwap it in for an equal amount of the oil or butter the recipe cooks with - do not add it on top of the existing fat.
For the salad
- 5 oz mixed greens
- 1 ½ cups shelled edamame, thawed if frozen
- 1 ½ cups purple cabbage, thinly shredded
Ingredient noteA serving of up to about 3/4 cup of cabbage is low in FODMAPs. This recipe contains only about 1/2 cup per serving, making it likely Low FODMAP. If you prefer to always avoid cabbage, please tap it and change its rating to Red.
- 1 english cucumber, thinly sliced into half-moons
- 2 medium carrots, peeled and julienned or shredded
- 3 green onions (green tops only), thinly sliced
Ingredient noteThe green parts of scallions are low in FODMAPs. Avoid the white bulb which is higher in FODMAPs.
- 2 tbsp sesame seeds, dry-roasted
- ¼ cup fresh cilantro leaves (optional)
