Deconstructed Stuffed Salmon by Jenny of Paleo Foodie Kitchen
Ingredients
1 lb wild Alaskan or sockeye salmon (cut into 2 pieces)
6 oz raw shrimp (peeled, deveined and chopped)
1 large egg
2 tbsp raw onions (chopped)
2 tbsp Italian flat leaf parsley (chopped)
2 tbsp almond meal (or almond flour)
2 tbsp lard (or butter)
1 clove garlic (minced)
1 tbsp old bay
salt and pepper to taste
Steps
Preheat oven to 375F.
Mix the chopped raw shrimp, egg, onions, parsley, almond meal, 1tbsp lard, garlic, old bay, salt and pepper. Set aside.
Lightly season the salmon pieces with salt and pepper. Heat a cast iron pan on high and add the rest of the lard. Pan sear the salmon 1-2 minutes per side.
Move the salmon to an ovenproof dish and top each piece with 2 tbsp (or more!) of the shrimp topping. Lightly brush the top with a little bit of lard and bake in the oven for 15 minutes.
Afterwards, set your oven to broil and cook for about 3 more minutes until the top becomes crispy.
