Super Simple Smoked Salmon (Low FODMAP)

5 Minutes prep • 3 - 4 Hours cook • Low FODMAP • Gluten-free • Lactose-free • Serves 6 • Ok to make ahead: Steps 1-3

This is one of the simplest and most flavorful recipes for salmon I have created. The combination of the sweet maple seasoning and the slow cook in the smoker makes for a perfectly delicious and balanced salty/sweet fish. I used fresh steelhead salmon—but you could use any fresh salmon you have available. Serve it hot off the grill, at room temperature, or even chilled on a salad.

Ingredients: Salmon

1 1/2 pounds steelhead salmon filet (skin on)

1 - 2 tablespoons Smoke N Sanity Sweet Maple Dust (use code IBSGC15 for 15% discount)

1 teaspoon Kosher salt

1/2 teaspoon red pepper flakes

1 tablespoon olive oil

Lemon slices and chopped chives for serving

Directions

(1) Prepare: Preheat the smoker or grill to 180 degrees F. Lay fish out, skin side down, on a piece of heavy aluminum foil. Sprinkle the sweet maple dust, salt, and red pepper flakes evenly over the fish. Drizzle with olive oil.

(2) Cook the fish: Put the fish in the foil directly on the grill grates. Do not wrap the fish in the foil—leave it flat. Cook with the grill lid closed for about 3 - 4 hours until the fish is cooked through.

(3) Finish: Remove fish from the grill and add lemon slices and chopped chives.

Make-ahead note: At this point, you may keep the fish in the refrigerator for 2 - 3 days until you’re ready to serve it. This fish is delicious cold so don’t be afraid to make it ahead.

(4) Plate and serve: Serve immediately or allow to cool to room temperature or even refrigerate.

Eat and enjoy every bite because you can!

Recipe note: I use Diamond Crystal Kosher salt in all my recipes because it has a wonderful flat and crisp flake that tastes delicious. It is also the least salty salt available so you can use it more liberally as a seasoning than you can table salt or sea salt. If you use another type of salt, you may need to reduce the amount so it is not over-salted.
