Ingredients

Servings
  • 6 oz salmon (skin on) halved
  • extra virgin olive oil a drizzle, your favorite
  • season with: salt, pepper, garlic powder, and paprika - to taste
  • 2 ciabatta rolls fresh
  • 2-4 TBSP pesto (homemade or store bought)
  • 2 TBSP mayonnaise or aioli, fresh
  • 1 cup arugula fresh baby
  • ½ avocado sliced lengthwise, large
  • 6 lices tomato

Instructions

  1. Grab some wild Alaskan salmon from your local seafoodery and fire up the grill!
  2. Heat your grill to about 375 degrees F and prep your salmon by drizzling each fillet with olive oil and seasoning, to taste, with salt, pepper, garlic powder, and paprika.
  3. Secure your fish, skin-side down in a grill basket and grill for about 5 minutes.
  4. Flip the basket an grill skin-up for approx 8 minute until salmon is a bright pinkish-orange and completely opaque.
  5. No grill? No problem! You can bake your salmon in a foil pouch or try the sear-n-bake technique I use for my salmon tacos!
  6. Whichever technique you use for the salmon, be sure to gently remove the skin after cooking.
  7. It should slide off easily when you insert a knife between the salmon and the skin. Just gently swipe through and you're good to go.
  8. If you're using take-and-bake ciabatta like I am, pop two in the oven for five minutes until golden and crisp on the outside and fluffy on the inside. Yum!
  9. Using bakery fresh rolls instead? Lightly toast them up on your grill with a little butter or oil if you'd like or enjoy them as is!
  10. Slather one side of the ciabatta with homemade or storebought mayo or aioli and spread your favorite pesto for the other. Add a small mountain of fresh arugula and your hot and ready salmon.
  11. Pile on the veggies and introduce it to your face. Enjoy!
