Pork Rind Oven Fried Salmon

How can healthy taste this good? The answer is low carb pork rinds, of course! It's the element your salmon has been missing. You’ll be adding collagen and protein to your already nutrient-packed meal.

Ingredients

• 1/2 cup Southern Recipe Small Batch Pork Rinds, crushed

• 1 Salmon filet

• 1 Tbsp. Parmesan cheese, grated

• 1/2 tsp. Black pepper

• 1/2 tsp. Garlic powder

• 2 Tbsp. Yellow mustard

• 3 Tbsp. Avocado oil

• 1 Lemon slice

Directions

1. **Preheat and Prep:**

Preheat oven to 425°F.

Heat 2 tablespoons of avocado oil in an oven-safe skillet over medium heat.

2. **Season and Coat:**

In a resealable bag, combine crushed pork rinds, Parmesan, black pepper, and garlic powder.

Rinse salmon, pat dry, and brush the top with yellow mustard.

Add the salmon to the bag and shake until the filet is fully coated.

3. **Sear and Bake:**

Place the coated salmon in the hot skillet, skin side down. Pan fry for 4 minutes without flipping.

Drizzle the top with the remaining avocado oil.

4. **Finish in the Oven:**

Transfer the skillet to the oven and bake for 10 minutes, or until the thickest part of the filet turns opaque and flakes easily.

5. **Serve:**

Remove from oven and squeeze fresh lemon juice over the top.

Serve immediately for a perfectly crispy, savory crust.
