Dressing

  1. To cashew cream add about ¼ cup cold water, chipotle pepper, adobo sauce, garlic, cumin, and lime juice.

  2. Blend on high speed until a smooth consistency like thick sour cream. If it is too thick and not moving, simply add a little more water about a tablespoon at a time.
  3. Some of the dressing will be used for salad

  4. Fish:
  5. In a small bowl, combine smoked paprika, coriander, cumin, garlic powder, salt and pepper to create a dry rub.
  6. Heat skillet or sauté pan on medium heat. Toss fish fillets with dry rub. Add coconut oil and fish to the pan. Cook on one side 4-5 minutes to crisp, flip and cook about another 3-5 minutes depending on the thickness of your fish (thinner fillets require less time).
  7. Remove from heat and flake into big chunks for serving.

Instructions for chicken

  2. In a very hot skillet, fry the chicken on one side for 3 minutes, with a little bit of olive oil. Once the chicken browns, turn off the heat and cover the skillet, chicken should be perfectly cooked through, yet juicy after 4 minutes.
