Citrus Habanero Salmon Sandwich Ingredients

Method

Preparation Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Marinade

    In a small bowl, combine lime juice, orange juice, minced garlic, salt, and black pepper. Finely chop the habanero pepper (remove seeds for less heat) and add it to the marinade.

  2. 2

    Marinate the Salmon

    Place the salmon fillets in a shallow dish and pour the marinade over them. Let it marinate for at least 30 minutes in the refrigerator.

  3. 3

    Cook the Salmon

    Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Remove the salmon from the marinade and cook for 4-5 minutes on each side, or until cooked through and flaky.

  4. 4

    Prepare the Sandwich

    Toast the whole grain bread slices. Mash the avocado and spread it on one side of each slice. Layer with cooked salmon, sliced tomato, red onion, and fresh cilantro.

  5. 5

    Assemble and Serve

    Top with the other slice of bread to complete the sandwich. Cut in half and serve immediately.
