Steps:
- For the salmon: Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. In a saute pan over medium-high heat, add the olive oil and allow to warm. Sprinkle the salmon with the salt and pepper, and then add to the pan. Sear the salmon on first side until browned, 3 to 4 minutes. Then flip the fillets and repeat the process, reducing the heat to medium for the second side. Fish will be medium at this stage. Finish in the oven for additional desired cooking. Once cooked, squeeze the lemons over the fish and into pan and allow the salmon to rest while cooking the vegetables.
- For the salad: Add the grape seed oil to a saute pan over high heat and allow to warm. Then add the potatoes and onions, cooking until the onions soften, 3 to 4 minutes. Next, add the beans, garlic, apple juice, lemon juice and mustard, reducing the heat to medium. Cook until beans have softened, a final 3 minutes. Remove from the heat and stir in the butter.
- Serve the salad in center of the plate. Top with the salmon and drizzle with the vegetable pan sauce.

Tips:
- Prepare ingredients in advance: To save time and ensure efficient cooking, measure and prepare all the ingredients before starting the cooking process.
- Choose fresh, high-quality vegetables: The freshness and quality of the vegetables used will greatly impact the flavor and texture of the salad. Opt for vibrant, crisp vegetables for the best results.
- Cook vegetables to perfection: Overcooked vegetables can become mushy and lose their flavor. Cook them just until tender-crisp to retain their texture and nutrients.
- Use a flavorful dressing: The dressing is a key component that brings all the flavors together. Experiment with different dressings to find one that suits your taste preferences. A simple vinaigrette made with olive oil, lemon juice, Dijon mustard, and herbs is a good starting point.
- Chill the salad before serving: Chilling the salad for at least 30 minutes before serving allows the flavors to meld and develop. This also makes the salad more refreshing and enjoyable.
