Seared Salmon Salad with Mixed Greens and Chickpeas
Pan-seared wild sockeye salmon served over a bed of crisp mixed greens and fiber-rich chickpeas, finished with a zesty lemon-Dijon vinaigrette and crunchy cucumber.
INGREDIENTS
4.5 ounces Wild Sockeye Salmon
0.5 cup Canned Chickpeas, rinsed
2 cups Mixed Greens
0.5 cup Sliced Cucumber
1 teaspoon Extra Virgin Olive Oil
1 tablespoon Fresh Lemon Juice
1 teaspoon Dijon Mustard
PREPARATION
Pat the salmon fillet dry with a paper towel and season with a pinch of sea salt and black pepper.
Heat the olive oil in a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat until shimmering.
Place the salmon in the pan and sear for 4-5 minutes on the first side until a golden crust forms.
Flip the salmon and cook for another 2-3 minutes until the fish is opaque and flakes easily with a fork.
In a small jar or bowl, whisk together the lemon juice and Dijon mustard to create a bright vinaigrette.
In a large bowl, combine the mixed greens, rinsed chickpeas, and sliced cucumber.
Drizzle the dressing over the salad and toss well to ensure every leaf is lightly coated.
Place the warm seared salmon on top of the salad and enjoy immediately.
