Total time: Approximately 30 to 40 minutes.

Ingredients:

2 pounds of salmon fillets (I used skinless salmon but you can also use the salmon with skin on)

Rub

3 teaspoons of paprika

1 teaspoon garlic powder

1 teaspoon of onion powder

1 teaspoon of cayenne pepper

1 teaspoon of dried thyme

1 teaspoon of dried oregano

Salt and pepper

Olive oil to cook the salmon in

Cauliflower Rice

1 Large head of cauliflower grated

1/4 cup of nutritional yeast (optional)

1/2 teaspoon of salt

1 teaspoon of cayenne pepper (optional)

1 cup Vegetable broth

2 cloves of minced garlic

2 tablespoons of coconut oil (for sauté)

Cucumber, avocado and lemon (optional)

Directions

Step 1: In a bowl combine paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, cayenne pepper, dried thyme, and oregano and whisk together.

Step 2: Try to cut your Salmon fillet into equal eight-4 ounce pieces (doesn't have to be perfect). Lightly season the salmon with salt and pepper after cutting it.

Step 3: Use the rub you just whisked together to season both sides of the salmon.

Step 4: Heat up a large pan on medium-high heat and add 2 tablespoons of olive oil.

Step 5: When the pot is hot add the salmon and sear it for approximately 3 minutes per side until it is browned. If it is cooking too fast, lower the temperature on your burner.

Step 6: Once the salmon is cooked remove it from the heat. Repeat this until all of your salmon is cooked (You may have extra rub left over. If you do, place it in a bag or container and store it in a cool dry place until you are ready to use it again).

Step 7: Heat up a separate pot on medium-high heat and add your coconut oil.

Step 8: Once the pot is heated add your minced garlic and cook only until fragrant.

Step 9: Quickly add your cauliflower, broth, salt, nutritional yeast (optional), cayenne pepper (optional) and mix.

Step 10: Cook the cauliflower for about 8-10 minutes covered. Uncover it then cook until all of the broth has evaporated. Turn off the stove.

Step 11: Plate your cauliflower rice and salmon how you like it. You can add cucumbers, lemon and avocado if you please.

Step 12: Enjoy.
