  • Sprinkle a generous amount (about a teaspoon or two) of the rub on the top of the filet.
  • Add purple cabbage to a small mixing bowl and add your grapeseed oil and kosher salt. Mix well.
  • Mix your Sriracha Mayo ingredients together, testing until you get your perfect amount of spiciness.
  • Bake your fish for 4-6 minutes per 1/2 inch thickness and the cabbage requires about 4-6 minutes as well.
  • Place fish, skin-side down, on a foil-lined baking sheet along with the cabbage, or add cabbage later for a thicker piece of fish.

  • Remove salmon, cabbage, and bun from the oven. Take the bottom of the bun and spread as much sriracha mayo as you desire. Add purple cabbage on top.
  • Take a spatula and lift the fish fillet off of its skin, which should stick to the foil, and place on top of the cabbage.
  • Add arugula and top of the bun. Enjoy!
