Ingredients:

• 2 tablespoons parsley

• 1 tablespoon lemon zest

• 1 teaspoon sea salt

• 1 teaspoon black pepper

• 2 tablespoons coconut oil

1. In a food processor, combine the almond flour, parsley, lemon zest, salt, and pepper. Blend until all is well-combined.

2. Heat coconut oil in a large skillet over medium heat.

3. Dredge the salmon on both sides through the almond mixture.

4. Fry salmon in the oil 5 minutes on each side, or until cooked throughout.

5. Serve over bed of fresh greens and top with fresh lemon juice.
