Serves: 4 servings
Prep Time: 30 minutes
Cooking Time: 15 minutes
Total Time: 45 minutes

Ingredients

  • 1.5 -2 lbs salmon, skin removed
  • 1/4 cup coconut aminos or low-sodium soy sauce
  • 1/2 tsp salt (leave out if using soy sauce)
  • 1/2 tsp garlic powder
  • 2 tbsp olive oil

Sweet Chili Sauce

  • 2 tbsp chili garlic sauce or sambal oelek, or substitute harissa
  • 1/3 cup honey
  • 1/4 cup water
  • 1/4 cup rice vinegar
  • 1 tbsp tapioca flour
  • 2 cloves garlic, crushed
  • 1/4 tsp red pepper flakes
  • Pinch salt

Directions

  1. Cut your salmon into 1u0022 cubes and add it to a bowl with the coconut aminos, salt and garlic powder. Let that marinate for 20 minutes.
  2. While the salmon marinates, prepare your sauce by combining all of the ingredients together in a small bowl and whisking it together until smooth
  3. Heat a large skillet on medium heat then add in the olive oil. Cook the salmon cubes for about 10-12 minutes total, rotating them every 3 minutes to brown all sides.
  4. Once the salmon is done, pour the sauce in and let it simmer on a medium/low flame until it begins to thicken, for about 5-7 minutes.
  5. Garnish with chopped scallions or chives and serve over your favorite rice!
  6. **If you wanted to prepare this recipe using a 1.5-2 lb fillet of salmon instead of cutting into cubes, marinate it in an oven safe dish for 20 minutes in the coconut aminos, salt and garlic powder. Then pour the sweet chili sauce over it and bake it on 375 F for about 18-22 minutes, depending on the size of your fish. You can broil it for the last 2-3 minutes to brown the top.
