Ingredients
- 4 – 4-ounce skinless salmon fillets
- 6 cups of baby romaine lettuce
- 1 English cucumber diced.
- 1 pint halved grape or cherry tomatoes I love the baby heirloom grape tomatoes!
- ½ red onion diced.
- 1 avocado sliced or diced.
- 8 Tablespoons of olive oil plus extra for cooking the salmon.
- 6 Tablespoons of fresh lemon juice
- 2 Tablespoons of red wine vinegar
- 2 Tablespoons of fresh dill minced.
- 2 teaspoons dried oregano
- 1 teaspoon salt
- Fresh cracked black pepper to taste.
Instructions
- Remove the salmon fillets from their packaging, pat dry with paper towels and allow to sit at room temperature for approximately 15 minutes.
- In a mason jar, or measuring cup, add the olive oil, lemon juice, vinegar, dill, oregano, salt and a few turns of cracked pepper.
- Close the lid and shake until combined. (Or use a whisk)
- Add ½ cup of the dressing to a shallow dish.
- Take each salmon fillet and coat both the front and back with the dressing. Set them aside.
- Heat a steel skillet over medium heat. After a few minutes, add a drop of water and if it sizzles and skips around the pan, it’s ready.
- Add one tablespoon of olive oil and then add two fillets to the pan. (You don’t want them to be crowded so you may need to cook them in shifts.)
- Set a timer for 4 minutes and don’t move them.
- Once the timer goes off, gently flip each fillet to the other side and cook for an additional 4 minutes or until a thermometer inserted into the center of the filet reaches 120 degrees.
- Remove to a plate and set aside.
- Add the lettuce, cucumbers, tomatoes, onion and salmon to a large tray or bowl.
- Add the remaining dressing and toss to coat before serving.
