Baked Salmon with Creamy, Roasted Garlic Sauce

Servings: 2
Preparation Time: 30 minutes

Ingredients:

Salmon:

• 2 wild-caught salmon fillets, frozen
• 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
• 1/2 cup water
• 1 tablespoon Tropical Traditions Gold Label Virgin Coconut Oil
• 1 teaspoon sea salt

Creamy Roasted Garlic Sauce:

• 3 tablespoons mayonnaise*
• 2 cloves garlic, pressed
• 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
• 1/4 teaspoon cayenne
• 1/4 teaspoon turmeric
• 1 teaspoon ground mustard

Directions:

Preheat oven to 375 degrees F.

Place salmon fillets in a glass baking dish and sprinkle lemon juice, water, coconut oil, and salt over them. Cover with an oven-proof lid and bake until fork tender, about 15–20 minutes.

While fish is baking, mix your mayonnaise, garlic, black pepper, cayenne, turmeric, and ground mustard in small bowl.

Remove fish from the oven and drain most of the liquid out before spooning the garlic sauce over the fillets. Place fish back in the oven and broil for 3 minutes.
