Maple Pecan Crusted Salmon Recipe | Summer Sunshine Series






Maple Pecan Crusted Salmon Recipe | Summer Sunshine Series




Welcome back to the Summer Sunshine Series! Today I am sharing another healthy and tasty summer-inspired recipe. This salmon recipe is so quick and easy to make - you can even make it on the BBQ for a extra special treat!




Ingredients:
A handful of pecans
2 tbsp. maple syrup (or enough to well coat pecans)
Salmon filets

Crush your pecans to a crumbly (but not sandy) texture. Add the maple syrup and stir well. Spread the mixture on top of your salmon and bake in the oven (or BBQ) for approximately 20 minutes at 180 degrees C (or according to salmon packet instructions).




For the asparagus:
Snap of the stalky ends and spread on a baking tray. Add garlic powder, salt and pepper and drizzle with chilli oil. Bake for around 12 minutes.




For the herby potatoes: Add butter (or coconut oil) to fresh or mixed herbs and coat the new potatoes. Bake in the oven for around 20 minutes until soft in the middle and crispy on the outside.
