Oven Roasted Crispy Salmon Skins
I love salmon. In my house, we tend to eat salmon fillet on average of about once a week. Most of the time, I leave the skin on during the cooking process. Sometimes however, I will cook it with the skin removed. Since there’s some good stuff in the skins, I feel it’s a waste to throw it away. So I came up with a perfect side dish of crispy salmon skins utilizing the leftovers.

- 1 Tbsp1 Tbsp1 Tbsp Coconut Aminos

- Add sliced salmon skin and mix well using your hands (don't be afraid to get in there with your hands, it will ensure that you coat the skins evenly).
- Cover and set aside to marinate for 30 minutes to an hour.
- When skins are finished marinating, preheat oven to 450° F.
- Place salmon skins in a sheet pan, preferably with a rack insert to allow airflow and even cooking.
- Roast skins in the oven for 8-10 minutes until crispy and edges start to brown. Enjoy!
Notes
You can also pan fry the salmon skin if you don’t want to bake them in the oven. This technique works just as well but it cooks less at a time.
