Mustard Free Whole30 Smoky Paprika Smoked Salmon Hash
Smoky, hearty, and built entirely from whole ingredients, this skillet hash is the kind of meal that works just as well for a lazy weekend brunch as it does for a quick weeknight dinner. Yukon Gold potatoes get crisped up in avocado oil until golden and tender, then tossed with sweet red bell pepper, onion, and a bold spice blend anchored by smoked paprika and a touch of cayenne. The result is deeply savory and satisfying before the salmon even enters the picture. Hot-smoked salmon gets gently warmed right on top of the hash, adding rich, flaky protein that soaks up all those smoky, spiced flavors from below. For anyone navigating mustard-free cooking, this recipe is a breath of fresh air — no condiments, no spice blends with hidden mustard seed, just clean, straightforward seasonings you can verify yourself. A squeeze of fresh lemon and a scatter of chives at the end brighten everything up and keep it feeling light despite how filling it is. One cast iron skillet, no fuss, and a seriously impressive plate.
