GRILLED SALMON CAESAR SALAD



Grilled Salmon Caesar Salad image

Every summer, I get super excited to see fresh, whole wild-caught salmon fillets at my favorite grocery store.

Categories     main dish     salad     seafood

Time 30m

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 24

FOR THE DRESSING:
1 clove Small, Garlic
3 Anchovy Fillets (See Note)
2 Egg Yolks
1 tbsp. Dijon Mustard
3 tbsp. Freshly Squeezed Lemon Juice
2 tbsp. Water
1/2 tsp. Honey
1/2 c. Extra Virgin Olive Oil
1/3 c. Freshly Grated Parmesan Cheese
FOR THE SALMON:
1 whole Fresh Salmon Fillet
1/2 tsp. Sea Salt
Generous Pinch Of Black Pepper
2 cloves Minced Garlic
2 whole Lemons, One Sliced And One Cut Into Wedges
3 sprigs Thyme, Or More To Taste
2 tbsp. Butter, Or More As Needed
FOR THE SALAD:
3 Romaine Hearts, Chopped
1 English Cucumber, Chopped
1 pt. Cherry Or Grape Tomatoes, Halved
1 c. Fresh Parmesan Shavings
1/3 c. Sunflower Seeds

Steps:

  • To make the dressing, combine all of the ingredients (except the oil and Parmesan) in a food process or or blender. Blend to combine. While the machine is running, drizzle in the oil. Add the Parmesan and pulse to combine. Store, chilled, until ready to use. Can be made a day or two ahead of time.To make the salmon, preheat grill to high heat. Cut a piece of aluminum foil twice as long as your salmon fillet and lay it on the counter. Place the fillet on one half of the foil (not the center). Sprinkle with salt, pepper, and garlic. Lay the slices from 1 of the lemons on top as well as the thyme sprigs. Put little pats of butter along the fillet on top. Fold the foil over to cover the fillet and fold the edges to seal. Turn the grill down to medium-high heat and place the packet in the center of the grill. Cook for about 10-12 minutes, until the fillet flakes easily with a fork and the salmon is just barely cooked through. Remove from the grill and let it cool.Assemble the salads by putting a bed of lettuce on each dish. Add some salmon, cucumbers, tomatoes, Parmesan shavings, sunflower seeds, and a drizzle of Caesar dressing. Enjoy!Notes:1. If anchovies freak you out, you can substitute 1/2 teaspoon of anchovy paste or 1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce. 2. If you'd rather use your oven broiler, broil for 12-15 minutes. If you're using parchment paper to wrap the salmon, bake at 400ºF for 15-18 minutes. Times may vary depending on how hot your broiler is and how thick the fillet is. 3. You can use ghee or avocado oil in place of butter.

Tips:

  • Choose the right salmon: Opt for wild-caught salmon if available, as it is generally considered to have a better flavor and nutritional profile than farmed salmon.
  • Cook the salmon perfectly: Grilled salmon is a healthy and flavorful option, but it is important to cook it to perfection to avoid drying it out. Aim for an internal temperature of 145°F (63°C) for medium-rare salmon, or 155°F (68°C) for medium-well salmon.
  • Make a flavorful Caesar dressing: The Caesar dressing is a key component of this salad, so be sure to use high-quality ingredients and make it fresh. Use freshly grated Parmesan cheese, good quality olive oil, and fresh lemon juice for the best flavor.
  • Use fresh, crisp romaine lettuce: The romaine lettuce is the base of this salad, so it is important to use fresh, crisp leaves. Avoid wilted or bruised lettuce, as it will not taste as good.
  • Add other vegetables for extra flavor and nutrition: In addition to the romaine lettuce, you can add other vegetables to this salad for extra flavor and nutrition. Some good options include cherry tomatoes, cucumber, red onion, and avocado.

Conclusion:

Grilled salmon Caesar salad is a healthy and flavorful dish that is perfect for a light lunch or dinner. It is packed with protein, healthy fats, and essential vitamins and minerals. By following these tips, you can make a delicious grilled salmon Caesar salad that you and your family will love.
