Step 1

Bring the salmon to room temperature and then pat the fish dry with a paper towel. Season the salmon liberally with salt and pepper.

Step 2

Heat a large pan over medium-high heat. Once hot, add 1/2 tablespoon of avocado or olive oil.

Step 3

Cook the salmon 4-5 minutes per side until golden brown and cooked through.

Step 4

While the salmon is cooking, make the salad and whisk together the dressing.

Step 5

Let the salmon cool for a bit before starting to assemble the salads. Transfer the salad to bowls, place the salmon fillets over the salad, and then drizzle over the dressing.
