Instructions
- Step 1: Pat 6 oz salmon fillet dry and season with 1/4 tsp sea salt. Heat 1 tsp olive oil in a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat. Place salmon skin-side down and cook for 4 minutes until crispy, then flip and cook 3 more minutes until opaque throughout.
- Step 2: While salmon cooks, heat 1/4 cup coconut water, 1 tsp grated ginger, and 1/2 lemon juice in a small saucepan over medium heat for 2 minutes until slightly reduced.
- Step 3: Toss 2 spiralized zucchini noodles in the reduced sauce until coated, then top with cooked salmon and drizzle with any remaining sauce.
