Keto Lemon Herb Stuffed Salmon Recipe
Ingredients
- 1 whole salmon, cleaned and head removed, between 6 and 7 pounds (3 kg)
- 1 lemon, sliced as thinly as humanly possible
- 6 scallions, any wilted bits trimmed, and sliced very thinly lengthways
- 4 tablespoons (24 g) fresh oregano leaves, minced
- 1 tablespoon (2.4 g) fresh thyme leaves, stripped off their stems
Method
- First, start a charcoal fire or preheat a gas grill
- If you’re using charcoal, once the coals are ash-covered you’ll want to use fireproof tongs to arrange them in a strip roughly the length and width of your fish
- Either way, charcoal or gas, you’ll want a medium-hot fire
- Lay the salmon out on a platter
- Stuff the lemon slices into the body cavity, distributing them evenly along the length of the fish
- Do the same with the scallions
- Mix together the two herbs and stuff them into the body cavity as well
- Now, run toothpicks or skewers through the edges of the fish and use cooking twine to lace around the skewers to hold the edge of the fish closed
- Or if you prefer, use a big needle and cooking twine to sew the salmon closed
- Slash the fish every couple of inches, down to the bone, to let the heat in
- Now place the fish on an oiled grill over the fire and close the lid
- After 15 to 20 minutes, turn the salmon very carefully, using two spatulas, and re-situate it over the fire
- Re-close the lid and give your salmon another 15 to 20 minutes
- Its done when it flakes easily and an instant-read thermometer registers between 135°F and 140°F (60°C)
- Use your two spatulas to carefully remove the fish to a platter and serve
Makes 12 servings
- Each serving will have just 1 gram of carbohydrate, a trace of fiber, and 49 grams of protein
