Ingredients

• 8 ounces Wild-caught salmon fillet
• 4 whole Nori sheets
• 1 medium English cucumber
• 1 large Avocado
• 2 tablespoons Lemon juice
• 4 tablespoons Coconut aminos
• 1 teaspoon Wasabi powder (ensure Whole30 compliant)
• 2 teaspoons Sesame seeds
• 2 stalks Green onions
• 0.5 teaspoon Salt
• 0.25 teaspoon Freshly ground black pepper

Directions

Step 1

Begin by checking the salmon fillet for any bones and remove them with tweezers. Cut the salmon into thin strips, approximately 1/2 inch wide.

Step 2

In a small bowl, mix the lemon juice, coconut aminos, wasabi powder, salt, and freshly ground black pepper. Add the salmon strips to this mixture and let it marinate while you prepare the other ingredients, ideally for about 10 minutes.

Step 3

Wash the English cucumber and slice it into thin matchsticks, approximately 4 to 5 inches long.

Step 4

Cut the avocado in half, remove the pit, and slice the flesh into thin strips.

Step 5

Thinly slice the green onions on a bias, using both the green and white parts.

Step 6

Lay one nori sheet on a clean surface, shiny side down. Spread a small amount of wasabi or additional lemon juice if desired.

Step 7

Place a few cucumber matchsticks, avocado slices, and a couple of marinated salmon strips diagonally across the bottom third of the nori sheet.

Step 8

Sprinkle sesame seeds and a few slices of green onion over the top.

Step 9

Carefully fold the nori sheet over the filling, rolling it into a tight cone shape. If the edge doesn't seal, wet your fingertips and dab the edge to stick it down.

Step 10

Repeat the process with the remaining nori sheets and fillings until all are used.

Step 11

Serve the salmon hand rolls immediately, optionally with additional coconut aminos for dipping.
