A different way to bake salmon fillets: it helps keep them tender and looks nice on the plate, too.

Ingredients

  • 4, 5 oz. salmon steaks (skinless)
  • 6 cabbage leaves (sliced in half with the central vein removed)
  • 1 onion (chopped)
  • 2 bell peppers (diced)
  • Coconut oil
  • Sea salt and freshly ground black pepper

Directions

  1. 1

    Preheat your oven to 350 F.

  2. 2

    Blanch the cabbage leaves for 2 minutes in a large pot of boiling water. Cool in cold water and pat dry.

  3. 3

    Season the salmon with sea salt and black pepper to taste. Wrap each salmon steak with 3 cabbage leaf halves.

  4. 4

    Melt some coconut oil in an ovenproof skillet and cook the bell pepper and onion for about 4 minutes.

  5. 5

    Place the wrapped salmon on top of the pepper and onion mixture, and place in the oven to bake for 10 to 12 minutes.
