Time 35m

Number Of Ingredients 11

Ingredients

1 tbsp olive oil
450g salmon fillet , skinned
2large oranges
3small red onions
225g large, cooked, peeled prawn
2 x 150g bags bistro leaves or mixed salad leaves
125ml olive oil
2 tbsp wholegrain mustard
1 ½ tbsp heather honey or clear honey
1 tbsp mayonnaise
1 tbsp white wine or raspberry vinegar

Steps:

The day before, heat the olive oil in a non-stick frying pan, then cook the salmon, skinned side down, for 12-15 minutes, turning half way through. It should be cooked all the way through and opaque in the centre.
Meanwhile, make the dressing. Put olive oil, mustard, honey, mayonnaise and vinegar with some salt and pepper into a blender and whizz until well combined, then set aside.
Peel and segment the oranges and remove any pith (work over a plate so you can catch all the juices). Cover the oranges and keep in a cool place. Stir the orange juice into the dressing and store it in a screw top jar. Slice the onions, put into a plastic bag and store in the fridge.
Flake the salmon into large pieces using two forks to tease the flesh apart, then spoon over half the dressing. Cover and chill.
When ready to serve, shake the dressing, put the sliced onion, prawns and orange segments in a large bowl and drizzle over the remaining dressing. Add the salad leaves and toss together lightly. Using your hands, gently lift the mixture on to a large platter and scatter over the salmon flakes. Season with some coarsely ground black pepper and serve immediately.

SALMON WITH HONEY-LIME DRESSING

Salmon With Honey-Lime Dressing image

I got this recipe from Weber's Real Grilling. The original recipe calls for a huge fillet salmon on a full cedar plank, but I've done this recipe for individual salmon fillets on smaller planks. It's a much nicer way to serve them, and easier to do for a smaller group. The proportions here are for the whole large salmon, but I find that about half is enough for 3-4 smaller fillets.

Tips:

Choose fresh, high-quality salmon. Look for fillets that are firm and have a vibrant color. Avoid fillets that are dull or have any off-odors.
Season the salmon fillets generously with salt and pepper before searing. This will help to enhance the flavor of the fish.
Sear the salmon fillets in a hot skillet until they are crispy on the outside and cooked through to the center. This will help to prevent the fish from becoming dry.
Make sure the heather honey dressing is well-emulsified before using. This will help to prevent the dressing from separating.
Serve the seared salmon fillets immediately with the heather honey dressing. The fish is best enjoyed when it is hot and flaky.

Conclusion:

This seared salmon with heather honey dressing is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for any occasion. The salmon is cooked to perfection and the dressing is a perfect complement to the fish. This dish is sure to impress your guests and is a great way to enjoy the delicate flavor of salmon.
