Instructions

1. Step 1: In a small saucepan, simmer 1/4 cup dried hibiscus flowers, 2 tablespoons lime juice, and 1 tablespoon honey for 5 minutes. Strain the mixture, reserving 2 tablespoons of the glaze for later.
2. Step 2: In a pot, combine 1/2 cup jasmine rice, 1/2 cup coconut milk, 1/2 cup water, and 1 tablespoon coconut oil. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for 15 minutes until liquid is fully absorbed and rice is tender.
3. Step 3: Pat salmon fillets dry and brush both sides with 1 tablespoon of the hibiscus glaze. Heat 1 teaspoon coconut oil in a skillet over medium-high heat and sear salmon for 4-5 minutes per side, until golden and flaky. Drizzle with reserved glaze and sprinkle with 1 teaspoon lime zest before serving.
