Warm Salmon and Asparagus Salad - 11g Carbs, 5g Fiber

From: South Beach Diet

Roasting asparagus imparts a deep, complex flavor that gives the
ordinary steamed version a run for its money. This elegant dish
is great for guests, but it's also quick enough for a simple
weeknight meal.

Prep Time: 15 min
Cook Time: 35 min
Total Time: 50 min
Servings: 2

1 Tbsp olive oil, extra-virgin PLUS 1 tsp , divided, plus extra
for baking dish
1 lb asparagus ends trimmed
1 pinch salt plus more to taste
1 pinch pepper, black ground plus more to taste
2 salmon fillets, (6-oz each)
1 Tbsp Dijon mustard
1 1/2 tsp white wine vinegar
2 1/2 oz lettuce, mesclun (3 cups)

1. Heat oven to 450 degrees F.

2. Place asparagus in a single layer in a baking pan; drizzle with
1 teaspoon of the oil, season with salt and pepper, and turn to coat.
Bake until lightly browned, about 20 minutes.

3. While asparagus is roasting, season salmon with salt and pepper.
Lightly brush a baking dish with oil, add salmon, and bake until fish
flakes easily with a fork, 10 to 12 minutes.

4. Place mustard, vinegar, remaining oil, and a pinch of salt and
pepper in a glass jar with a lid. Close tightly and shake vigorously
to combine; adjust seasoning if necessary.

5. Combine greens and 1 tablespoon of the dressing in a mixing
bowl; toss to coat. Drizzle remaining dressing over the fish and
serve with asparagus and greens.
