1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
fresh black pepper (to taste)
1/4 cup chopped red onion

Number Of Ingredients 15

1/4 cup olive oil
2 large lemons (juiced)
1 tsp Dijon mustard
1 tsp honey (or maple syrup)
1-2 garlic cloves (minced)
1/2 tsp dried oregano
Kosher salt and pepper (to taste)
1 large head of romaine (chopped)
1 small red onion (chopped)

12 oz salmon filets (about 3-4 fillets)
Kosher salt and pepper (to taste)
2 tablespoons olive oil

Steps:

  • Mix all the dressing ingredients to a bowl, whisk for 1 minute until a slightly thick dressing is achieved. Refrigerate until ready to use.
  • Chop the lettuce into bite-size pieces and chop the onion. Peel and slice the cucumbers into cubes.
  • Slice the avocados in half lengthwise around the seed. Open the halves and remove the pit. Cut into small cubes.
  • Place all the chopped veggies into a bowl, gently mix and set aside.
  • Season the salmon fillets with salt and a light shower of ground black pepper. In a large non-stick pan, heat oil over medium-high heat.
  • Place the salmon filets into the hot oil, pressing them lightly with a spatula so the flesh comes into contact with the pan. Sear for 4-5 minutes until crispy and golden. Flip the fillets over and cook for 2-3 minutes more.
  • For assembling, evenly divide the salad among your serving bowls. Top each bowl with salmon fillets and add the olives. Drizzle the prepared dressing over salmon and salad.

Easy Salmon Burger Avocado Salad image

This is a nice quick and yummy way for me to get my protein! The Avocados go great with the burgers and give you some nice good fats. Don't use the Trader Joes Fresh Salmon Burgers, the frozen are much better!. Also use real Mayo, not the nonfat Soy Junk.
