salad with salmon

Salmon, Arugula, and Avocado Salad with Lemon Vinaigrette

salmon fillet

butter

salt and pepper (to taste)

baby arugula

avocado

kalamata olives

lemon juice

rice vinegar (or another tablespoon lemon juice)

olive oil

shallot (thinly sliced)

jalapeno (seeded deveined, and minced)

Preheat the oven to 350°F.  Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil, and spray it with nonstick spray.

Place the salmon the baking sheet and smear the butter over the top.  Season with salt and pepper.  Bake for about 12 to 15 minutes, until just cooked through.  Let cool on the baking sheet.  Remove the skin from the filets if applicable.

Place the arugula in a large serving bowl.  Peel and dice the avocado.  Add the avocado and olives to the bowl.  In a small container, combine the lemon juice, rice vinegar, olive oil, salt and pepper, shallots and jalapenos.  Shake to blend, pour most of the dressing on the salad, and toss to combine.  Flake the salmon into bit sized chunks and distribute them over the salad.  Drizzle the remaining dressing over the salmon, give it a light final toss, and serve.

Smoky Summer Salad with Lime-Crusted Salmon (30 Minutes!)

5-Minute Smoky Chipotle Dressing ((or sub store-bought chipotle ranch

Easy Peach Cucumber Salsa

romaine lettuce ((or sub mixed greens))

red cabbage,

black beans, drained and rinsed ((optional))

brown rice flour

cornstarch

Tbsp lime zest ((4 medium limes yield ~4 Tbsp zest))

sea salt

garlic powder ((optional))

Tbsp lime juice ((1 large lime yields ~3 Tbsp juice))

(4-6 oz.) salmon filets,

Tbsp avocado oil ((for cooking fish))

SALAD: If using homemade dressing and peach salsa (both recommended), prepare them at this time and set aside. In a large serving bowl, combine the lettuce, cabbage, and black beans (optional) and toss to combine. Set aside.

SALMON: In a medium-sized shallow bowl or dish, combine the brown rice flour, cornstarch, lime zest, salt, and garlic powder (optional). Whisk to fully combine and ensure there are no clumps of lime zest. Set nearby.

In a separate shallow bowl, add the lime juice and set nearby. Then get a large dinner plate and set it near the stove for the cooked salmon.

Heat oil in a large cast iron skillet over medium heat. Once the oil is hot and shimmering, start the salmon assembly line. Take one salmon filet and place it in the lime juice, flip it once or twice to evenly coat. Lift it up gently and let excess lime juice drip off, then place it in the flour/zest mixture. Press down gently on the top of the salmon, then flip and press once or twice until it is evenly coated in the mixture. Lift it and gently shake off excess flour, then immediately place into the hot skillet.

Cook the salmon for 2-4 minutes on each side, or until the internal temperature reads 145 F (63 C). When the salmon is cooked, set it aside on a plate to cool slightly. Repeat with the remaining salmon.

To assemble the bowls, divide the greens/beans between bowls and top each with chipotle dressing and peach salsa. Add a salmon filet to each bowl, and enjoy!

Best when fresh, but leftovers will keep stored separately in the fridge for up to 1-2 days. Not freezer friendly.
