Phase 3 | Serves 4
Prep time: 5 minutes | Total time: 7 hours

Ingredients

1 cup tamari
2 tablespoons coconut aminos
2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
1 1/2 tablespoons freshly ground black pepper
2 teaspoons liquid smoke flavoring
 20 to 30 drops stevia
12 dashes of hot sauce (such as Tabasco), or more to taste
1 1/2 pounds salmon fillets, skin removed

Directions

1. In a wide glass or plastic container, combine the tamari, coconut aminos, lemon juice, pepper, liquid smoke, stevia, and hot sauce. Slice the salmon fillets lengthwise into 1/4-inch-thick slices. Place the salmon in the marinade, making sure every piece is coated. Cover the bowl and refrigerate for 4 hours.
   
   
2. Preheat the oven to 200 degrees F. Line a large rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper and place a wire rack on top of the parchment.
   
   
3. Arrange the salmon pieces on the rack in a single layer, leaving a bit of space between them. Bake for 3 hours, until the jerky is dry and leathery but still flexible. Remove from the oven and let cool completely.
   
   
4. Transfer the jerky to an airtight container and refrigerate for up to 2 weeks; freeze for up to 3 months.
