Instructions

Cook salmon in a skillet over medium-high heat for about 4 minutes. Turn it over and cook for 2 more minutes, or until it starts to flake easily or reaches 130 - 140 F. When the salmon is cooked, flake it with a fork and discard any skin.Alternatively, you may also bake it at 400 F for about 10-12 minutes.
In a large bowl, combine the cooked salmon and the rest of the ingredients.
Mix the salmon salad ingredients, and season with salt and pepper.
Serve the fresh salmon salad warm or cold or on a sandwich.

Notes

Use high quality ingredients. For best results and flavor, I prefer to use wild caught salmon and fresh herbs. The herbs and lemon zest make all the difference in this salad and give it a fresh and mouth-watering flavor.
Let it sit. Let the salad sit for 10 - 15 minutes to let the flavors meld.
If not serving straight away, keep the salad covered in the fridge for up to 3 days.
You can serve this salmon salad in a number of ways - on a sandwich, in a wrap, over quinoa or on cucumber slices/crackers.
This salad is naturally gluten-free, dairy-free, and low-carb.
