Ingredients

3 bell peppers (3 small or 2 large) cut into thin strips*
1 sweet onion small, thinly sliced
4 salmon fillets roughly 6 ounces each but doesn't need to be exact
½ cup lime juice
2 tablespoons water
3 tablespoons olive oil
2 cloves garlic finely minced
½ teaspoon red chili flakes
1 teaspoon cumin
1 ½ teaspoons fine sea salt
1 ½ tablespoons honey
¼ cup cilantro finely chopped
for serving: lime wedges and additional chopped cilantro

Instructions

Pre-heat oven to 400 degrees F and spray a large baking tray with cooking oil.
Make the marinade by whisking together the lime juice, water, olive oil, garlic, red chili flakes, cumin, fine sea salt, honey, and cilantro. Set aside.
Place the peppers and onion on your baking tray and toss together with 1/3 of the marinade. Make space in the center or on the side of the tray and place the salmon fillets. Top with another 1/3 of the marinade. Bake for 12-15 minutes or until salmon is cooked through.
Top with additional marinade to serve and ENJOY!

Notes

*I've found that the sizes of bell peppers vary greatly. If yours are small than you might want 3. If they're large (as often found at grocery stores), 2 is probably perfect.
