Ingredients
  

  • 8 oz salmon fillet
  • ¼ cup mayo (sub ½ of a mashed avocado for AIP)
  • 1 tablespoon lemon juice (1½-2 tablespoon for AIP)
  • 2 teaspoon chives
  • 1 teaspoon capers with juice
  • 1 teaspoon mustard (omit for AIP)
  • 1 teaspoon dill
  • ¼ teaspoon oregano
  • ¼ teaspoon white pepper (omit for AIP)
  • ¼ teaspoon salt

Instructions
 

  • Preheat oven to 400F. Pat raw salmon fillet dry and remove bones. Drizzle with olive oil, then spread evenly using a cooking brush.
  • Bake in the oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the thickest part of the fillet reads 125-135F. You’ll know the salmon is ready when it easily flakes and turns translucent (red) to opaque (pink) in color.
  • While salmon is baking add the remaining ingredients to a bowl. When salmon is ready, let cool then shred and add to the bowl. Combine well and chill in the fridge for 30 minutes before serving.
  • Serve with celery, jicama sticks, carrots, AIP-compliant plantain chips, etc.

Notes

  • Do not overbake the salmon. The fillet is perfect between 125-135F.
  • Buy and support wild-caught salmon, if possible. The meat is lower in contaminants and safer overall. Hint: Farmed salmon is called Atlantic Salmon in grocery stores.
