Instructions
  1. salmon fillets
  2. ½ C. of almond meal (or ground almonds)
  3. ¼ C. of pine nuts, chopped
  4. ¼ C. of basil leaves, finely chopped
  5. Tbsp. Italian flat leaf parsley

  12. Preheat the oven to 350° or the grill to medium.
  13. Place the cedar planks or cedar wraps in water to soak according to package instructions, if using (usually 20 to 30 minutes).
  14. Combine the almond meal, pine nuts, lemon juice, and seasonings in a bowl.
  15. Mix the topping with just enough oil to moisten, but not enough to make it look oily.
  16. Place the salmon filets on a paper-lined pan and pat the almond-pinenut mixture on top, firmly.
  17. Place the salmon on the plank or in the wraps and cook for 10 to 20 minutes, or until you see a bit of white coming out of the salmon (check often, it happens pretty fast).
