Ingredients

Servings
  • 8 ounces salmon raw, wild caught
  • 1 1/2 tablespoons grapeseed oil
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • ½ teaspoon black pepper
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 12 ounces spring greens baby spinach or romaine (whatever your favorite is!)
  • 2 orange segmented, Cara Cara variety
  • blood orange segmented
  • 1 pink grapefruit segmented
  • 1 to 2  avocado thinly sliced (depends on how much you want!
  • ½ shallot very thinly sliced, large
  • ¼ cup feta cheese crumbled

lemon vinaigrette

  • 3 tablespoons red wine vinegar
  • 1 1/2 tablespoons honey
  • 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
  • 1 lemon juiced and zested
  • garlic minced or pressed, cloves
  • pinch salt
  • pinch black pepper
  • 1/2 cup extra virgin olive oil

Instructions

  1. Preheat the broiler in your oven to high and set the oven rack about 6 inches below it.
  2. Place the salmon on a baking sheet and brush it with the grapeseed oil. Season it with the salt, pepper and garlic powder.
  3. Broil the salmon for 6 to 8 minutes, or until just opaque and flakes easily with a fork. If you’re doing a large filet, broil it for 8 to 10 minutes, then check. The time will depend on the thickness of the filet!
  4. To assemble the salad, toss together the lettuce with a pinch of salt and pepper, the orange segments, grapefruit, avocado and shallot. Drizzle with the vinaigrette. Sprinkle with the feta before serving.

lemon vinaigrette

  1. In a bowl, whisk together the vinegar, lemon juice, honey, garlic, salt and pepper. Continue to whisk while streaming in the olive oil. This dressing stays great in the fridge in a sealed container for a week or so, so feel free to make a double batch if desired!
