Ingredients
  

  • 200g cauliflower florets
  • 1/2 tbsp avocado oil
  • 115g salmon fillet
  • 2 tsp Italian seasoning
  • 2 tsp lemon zest
  • 2 tsp smoked paprika
  • pinch salt
  • pinch pepper
  • 1/4 tsp avo oil
  • 2 pieces baby bok choy, sliced in half
  • sea salt & pepper to taste

Garnish

  • cracked pepper and red pepper

Instructions
 

  • Bring a pot of water to a boil, add the cauliflower and boil until soft.
  • Lightly spray salmon with avocado oil, then season with Italian seasoning, lemon zest, smoked paprika and sea salt & pepper.  Rub it all over the salmon.  Set aside.
  • Seta skillet on medium high heat.  Once hot, add ½ tbsp avo oil.
  • Place the salmon in the skillet, skin side up, and sear for about 2 minutes, then flip over and continue cooking for about 2 more minutes.
  • Once the salmon is nearly cooked through (you can tell by looking at the side of the salmon), add the bok choy to the skillet, sliced side down.
  • As it cooks, squeeze in fresh lemon juice to help caramelize and wilt it. 
  • Cook for about 3 minutes, then remove from the heat.
  • Add the steamed cauliflower to a bowl, sea salt, pepper, onion powder and garlic powder. 
  • Mash with a potato masher, fork or an immersion blender.
  • Season to taste with sea salt & pepper.
  • Garnish and enjoy the meal
