Equipment

6 qt slow cooker
slow cooker liner or parchment paper
mixing bowl
measuring spoons and cups

Ingredients

1.5 - 2 lb Fresh salmon filet
1¼ teaspoon kosher salt
½ teaspoon pepper
1 lime, juiced
2 tablespoon olive oil
2 tablespoon soy sauce
2 tablespoon maple syrup
2-3 tablespoon fresh dill, chopped
1 tablespoon minced/chopped garlic

Instructions

Place slow cooker liner or parchment paper in pot. If using parchment paper, use two pieces the cross in the pot like a “T”
Place fish in pot, skin side down
1.5 - 2 lb Fresh salmon filet
Sprinkle salt and pepper over fish
1¼ teaspoon kosher salt, ½ teaspoon pepper
Mix other ingredients together to form a chunky paste and spoon over fish
1 lime, juiced, 2 tablespoon olive oil, 2 tablespoon soy sauce, 2 tablespoon maple syrup, 2-3 tablespoon fresh dill, chopped, 1 tablespoon minced/chopped garlic
Cook on low for 1½ - 2 hours until fish is opaque and flaky (each slow cooker is different, mine is generally perfectly done in 1½ hours)

Notes

OPTIONAL STEP: preheat oven to 400°. When fish is done, remove slow cooker pot and place in over for 5-8 minutes to get a bit of browning on top of fish (most slow cooker pots can handle oven heat up to 400°. Refer to your user manual if you have concerns).
