  • Total Time: 27 minutes
  • Yield: 4 1x

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 lb salmon fillets, cut into bite-sized chunks
  • 2 tbsp white miso paste
  • 1 tbsp honey
  • 1 tbsp soy sauce
  • 1 tsp sesame oil
  • 2 cups shredded purple cabbage
  • 1 cup kimchi, roughly chopped
  • 1 tsp sesame oil
  • Crisp butter lettuce or romaine leaves
  • 1/4 cup mayonnaise or Greek yogurt
  • 1 tbsp white miso paste
  • 1 tbsp lime juice
  • 1/2 tsp garlic powder

Instructions

  1. Glaze the Salmon: In a medium bowl, heavily whisk the white miso paste, honey, soy sauce, and sesame oil. Toss the bright orange salmon chunks into the bowl until they are completely coated in the sweet and savory sticky glaze.
  2. Roast the Seafood: Arrange the glazed salmon chunks evenly on a lined baking tray for an easy, low-friction sheet pan cleanup. Bake in an oven preheated to 400°F (200°C) for 10 to 12 minutes until the fish is beautifully flaky and golden caramelized on the edges.
  3. Make the Kimchi Slaw: While the salmon roasts, toss the shredded purple cabbage, chopped spicy red kimchi, and sesame oil in a bowl. This creates a vibrant, gut-healthy base packed with massive flavor.
  4. Build the Thick Drip: In a small bowl, thoroughly mix the mayonnaise, white miso paste, lime juice, and garlic powder until completely smooth. This creates a rich, glossy, and thick creamy miso sauce.
  5. Assemble and Drip: Lay out your crisp green lettuce leaves to create the perfect low-carb handheld cups. Add a generous bed of the vibrant crunchy kimchi and purple cabbage slaw into each leaf. Heavily top with the hot, flaky roasted miso salmon chunks. Flood the handheld cups entirely with a massive, heavy, scroll-stopping thick creamy miso sauce drip! Serve immediately.
