Instructions
1
In a small bowl, combine the smoked paprika, garlic powder, Aleppo pepper, cumin, sumac, and a big pinch each of kosher salt and black pepper. Mix well.

Pat the salmon dry with a paper towel and cut into 1-inch pieces. Season well with the prepared seasoning mix. Toss to coat.

In a medium mixing bowl, add the Greek yogurt, harissa, honey, lime and a big pinch of kosher salt (about 1/2 teaspoon). Whisk well until smooth. Set aside for now.

Transfer the salmon to a serving plate or platter and squeeze some fresh lime juice on top. Garnish with a drizzle of the harissa-yogurt sauce and the chopped green onions. Serve immediately with the remainder of the harissa-yogurt sauce to the side.
