In a large oven-safe skillet, heat canola oil over medium-high heat. . Add salmon skin-side down and cook for 2-3 minutes until the skin is crispy. Flip salmon and transfer skillet to preheated oven. Bake for 6-8 minutes until salmon is cooked through and flakes easily with a fork

2. Prepare the Coleslaw salad

Finely shred green cabbage, red cabbage, celery root, and carrot using a grater or mandoline slicer. Combine shredded vegetables with chopped baby dill, mayonnaise, bottled lime juice, and kosher salt in a large mixing bowl. Toss until well coated. Cover and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes before serving.

3. Make the Salsa

In a small saucepan, heat blended oil over medium heat. Add diced yellow onion, peeled garlic, carrot, red bell pepper, habanero pepper, and diced ginger. Sauté for 3-4 minutes until vegetables are softened. Stir in fresh orange juice, cider vinegar, frozen passion fruit pulp, water, bottled lime juice, ground black pepper, sweet paprika, and white granulated sugar. Bring mixture to a boil, then reduce heat and let simmer for 10-15 minutes until sauce thickens. Season with kosher salt to taste.

Maine Lobster Roll

A summer staple! This is a classic take on the iconic Maine Lobster Roll. Butter-poached and chilled lobster is seasoned with fresh herbs and citrus, crème fraîche, and crushed red pepper flakes. Served on a potato bun with romaine lettuce and a side of crispy Yukon gold potato chips. One bite will transport you to the New England coast!

Ponzu Baked Swai Fish

In this Japanese-inspired dish, light and flaky swai—a mild white fish similar to tilapia—is baked to perfection and served with roasted shiitake mushrooms and stir-fried bok choy. A citrusy ponzu sauce brings this whole dish together in sweet and savory harmony. Enjoy another healthy yet satisfying offering from Chef Akhtar.
