Sweet and citrusy, these marinated salmon are a great meal for you and your loved one! With just a few simple steps & some rice or vegetables on the side, this meal is something you can whip up without taking up your evening. Don’t forget to garnish with your new Hamama Culinary Cilantro Microgreens to give your meal an extra fresh taste you will love!

• 2 Tbsp Hamama Olive Oil
• 2 Tbsp honey
• Juice of 1 lime
• 1 pound Alaskan Salmon
• 1/4 Hamama Cilantro Seed Quilt 
• Salt and pepper
• Serve with a side of rice (like our Fragrant Coconut Rice!) or fresh vegetables!

1. Mix olive oil, honey, lime juice, salt and pepper, and 1/8 section of freshly harvested cilantro microgreens into a bag or container to marinate the salmon.
2. Cut salmon into two or three sections, let marinate for 20-30 minutes.
3. Place on a rack in an air fryer for 10 minutes at 400 degrees.
   1. For the grill:
      • Prepare the grill for direct cooking over high heat, 450°F-550°F. Brush the cooking grates clean and close the lid to heat.
      • Grill the salmon skin side down over direct high heat with the lid closed, for about 6-8 minutes or until the fish lightens in color, becomes more firm to the touch and you can lift the fillets off the cooking grates without them sticking.
      • Turn the salmon over, close the lid, and cook to 130°F or about 2-4 minutes for medium rare or longer to desired doneness. Transfer to a platter to rest for 1-2 minutes. Slide the salmon skin from the fillets and serve.
