Citrus Ginger Salmon with Kale Chips Makes 6 servings. 1 cup orange juice 1 tsp. grated orange zest 2 Tbsp. fresh lime juice 2 Tbsp. minced fresh ginger 1 Tbsp. coconut sugar ¼ tsp. hot pepper sauce or to taste 6 4-ounce portions boneless and skinless salmon filet Garnish: Sesame seeds, optional Combine the orange juice, zest, lime juice, ginger, coconut sugar, and hot pepper sauce in a large zipper bag. Add the salmon, close the bag, and turn several times in the marinade. Chill for 30 minutes or more (up to several hours). To prepare the salmon, preheat the oven to broil. Line a rimmed baking sheet with foil and brush the foil with olive oil or spray with nonstick cooking spray. Remove the salmon from the refrigerator and place the salmon fillets on the prepared baking sheet (discard the marinade). Cook about 6-inches from the top for about 8 to 10 minutes until just cooked through (don’t overcook). Serve the salmon hot, warm, or at room temperature, sprinkled with sesame seeds, with the kale chips on the side. Kale Chips 1 large bunch curly kale (about 8 ounces) 2 Tbsp. coconut or olive oil 1 tsp. sea salt Make the kale chips, preheat the oven to 350º. Line a rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper. With a knife or kitchen shears, carefully remove the thick stems from the kale and tear into bite size pieces. Arrange the kale on a baking sheet. Wash and thoroughly dry kale with a salad spinner or a clean towel. Drizzle the kale with oil and sprinkle with the seasoning salt. Bake until the edges are brown but aren’t burnt, about 10 to 15 minutes. Cool completely before serving. eydismedia.com 125
