This delicious salmon recipe is courtesy of Margot Olshan. At her Connecticut cafe, Margot finishes this salmon dish in the oven. But for a home cook, finishing on the stove works best.

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 tablespoon olive oil
2 boneless salmon fillet (6 ounces), skin-on
Coarse salt and freshly ground black pepper
2 cups cooked basmati rice
1 package (12 ounces) baby spinach, washed well and dried
1/2 cup Brazilian Vinaigrette
2 tablespoons Chimichurra Sauce
2 lime wedges, for serving

Steps:

  • Coat salmon with olive oil and season with salt and pepper. Add to a medium skillet set over medium-high heat, skin-side down. Cook until golden brown, 1 to 2 minutes. Turn fish and continue cooking until fish is still pink in the center, but flakes apart easily with a fork, about 5 minutes.
  • Divide spinach evenly between two serving plates; top with rice. Set salmon over rice. Drizzle 1/4 cup vinaigrette and 1 tablespoon chimichurra sauce over each piece of salmon; garnish each with a lime wedge. Serve immediately.

I'm not a fan of salmon, but my husband loved this dish. He said the salmon was cooked perfectly and the rice was flavorful. The vinaigrette was a bit too tangy for my taste, but overall he really enjoyed the dish.

The salmon was a bit overcooked, but the rice and vinaigrette were delicious.

This dish was absolutely delicious! The salmon was cooked perfectly and the rice was fluffy and flavorful. The Brazilian vinaigrette was the perfect finishing touch, adding a bright and tangy flavor to the dish. I will definitely be making this again
