Servings: 8 tbsp sized-sized
Calories: 94kcal

Ingredients

  • 6 oz salmon (canned of leftover)
  • 1 egg
  • 1 tbsp coconut aminos
  • 1 tsp arrowroot flour or coconut flour
  • 1/2 tsp dried ginger
  • 1/2 tsp poppy seeds or sesame seeds
  • 1/2 tsp minced garlic
  • 1/2 tsp dried onion
  • 1/4 cup unsweetened shredded coconut
  • 2 tbsp coconut oil for frying
  • salt to taste

Instructions

  • Add the salmon, egg, coconut aminos, arrowroot flour, and spices to a food processor.  Pulse until just combined.
  • Pour the shredded coconut into a small bowl.  Scoop out the salmon mixture, one tablespoon at a time, and roll into a ball.  Roll the salmon in the coconut, pressing to coat.
  • Heat the coconut oil in a skillet over medium heat.  Fry the salmon bites for about 2 minutes per side, until lightly browned. 
  • Transfer to a paper towel-lined plate until all of the bites are pan-fried, and sprinkle with salt.  Serve hot, dipped in Pineapple Teriyaki Sauce!

Notes

Try substituting 6 oz of any fully cooked seafood.  Shrimp, crab, or lobster would be amazing!
