This is great-tasting, easy-to-prepare salmon salad with a
refreshing sauce. The herbs are not only flavorful, but are
also full of nutrients. Feel free to add more salad ingredients
to your liking.
Prep and Cook Time: 20 minutes
3/4 lb salmon filets, cut in 4 pieces
2 Tbsp chopped fresh mint
3 Tbsp chopped fresh basil
2 Tbsp chopped fresh cilantro
2 Tbsp lemon juice
2 Tbsp extra virgin olive oil
3 Tbsp chopped pumpkin seeds
Salt & pepper to taste
1 head romaine lettuce, rinsed and chopped
1 medium tomato, seeds and excess pulp removed and sliced
1/2 medium avocado cut into 1 inch chunks
2 Tbsp lemon juice
Extra virgin olive oil to taste
Salt & pepper to taste
Cut salmon into 4 pieces, season with salt and pepper, place on a plate
and set aside. Preheat broiler on high and put stainless steel skillet
(make sure handle is also stainless) for about 10 minutes until very
hot. Do not use glass or pyrex for this.
Mix together mint, basil, cilantro, lemon juice, olive oil, chopped
pumpkin seeds, salt and pepper. Set aside. This is your herb mixture.
Prepare lettuce, tomato and avocado and toss with lemon juice, olive
oil, salt and pepper.
Remove pan from heat and place salmon on hot pan. Broil salmon for
about 4 minutes. Do not turn. Because pan is hot salmon will cook
very quickly. Place on a plate next to salad and top with herb mixture.
You will have some herb mixture left over. It is so good you may also
want to drizzle it on the salad greens.
