Ingredients Method Notes

Ingredients
  

  • 12 oz salmon fillet, skin removed
  • 1 head butter lettuce
  • 1 small cucumber
  • 1 medium carrot
  • 1 small avocado
  • 3 tbsp soy sauce
  • 2 tbsp rice vinegar
  • 1 tbsp honey
  • 1 tsp toasted sesame oil
  • 1 tsp grated fresh ginger
  • 1 garlic clove, minced
  • 1 tbsp neutral oil
  • Small handful fresh cilantro leaves
  • Sesame seeds, optional

Method
 

  1. Whisk the soy sauce, rice vinegar, honey, sesame oil, ginger, and garlic until the honey dissolves, about 30 seconds.
  2. Slice cucumber into 1/8-inch rounds, shred carrot, slice avocado, and separate and dry the butter lettuce leaves.
  3. Pat salmon dry, season with salt, and sear in oil over medium-high heat for 3-4 minutes per side, then rest for 2 minutes.
  4. Flake salmon into chunks and fill each lettuce cup with about 2 tablespoons of fish, then top with vegetables and cilantro.
  5. Drizzle the sauce over the wraps and serve immediately with sesame seeds if you like.

Notes

These wraps are best eaten right away, but all the components can be prepped a day ahead and stored separately in the fridge. If your salmon is thicker than 1 inch, add an extra minute or two per side.
