Poached Salmon Salad with Dill Vinaigrette
Ingredients:
Salmon Salad
- 1 lb Salmon Fillets
- 1.5 c Water
- .5 Lemons sliced
- 1 Cucumbers
- 1 tsp Sea Salt
- 5 c Romaine Lettuce chopped
- .75 c Celery chopped
Dill vinaigrette
- .25 c Olive Oil
- 1 tbsp Lemon Juice
- 2 tsp White Wine Vinegar
- 2 tbsp Fresh Dill chopped
- 2 tsp Shallots chopped
- 1 tsp Honey
- 1 clove Garlic minced or pressed
- .25 tsp Sea Salt
Instructions:
- In a medium saucepan, combine the salmon, water, and lemon and bring to a boil over medium heat. Immediately reduce the heat to a simmer and poach salmon for 5-7 minutes depending on the thickness of the filet. Once salmon flakes easily, transfer it to a cutting board to cool while you prepare the salad and vinaigrette. Discard the remaining ingredients in the saucepan.
- Peel cucumber on all sides using a vegetable peeler into long, flat ribbons until you reach the seed center.
- Place cucumber ribbons on a paper towel and sprinkle with pinch sea salt to sweat the cucumber and extract moisture. After 10 minutes, pat the cucumber dry with additional paper towels.
- Whisk together the vinaigrette ingredients in a bowl until well combined.
- In a large serving bowl, combine the lettuce, celery and cucumber ribbons with the vinaigrette. Gently toss in the flaked poached salmon. Serve with lemon slices on the side.
