Greek Salmon Salad Platter
Servings: 4
Ingredients:
16oz salmon (1 large piece or 4 small filets)
1 large cucumber (seeded, and sliced into 1/4 inch thick slices)
1 green bell pepper (chopped into 1-inch pieces)
2 cups cherry tomatoes (halved)
1 cup feta cheese (cut into 1/2 inch cubes)
1/2 cup thinly sliced red onion
1 cup pitted olives
2 cups mixed greens
1/3 cup fresh mint leaves
Juice from 1/2 lemon
Dressing:
1/4 cup olive oil
1/4 cup red wine vinegar
1 garlic clove (minced)
1 tsp dried oregano
2 tbsp grainy dijon mustard
Juice from 1/2 lemon
Sea salt & pepper
Directions:
Preheat the oven to 400°.
Place salmon on a parchment paper covered pan, drizzle with 1 tbsp olive oil, juice from half the lemon, salt & pepper, and cook until the salmon reaches your desired doneness. The time will vary depending on the size of your salmon (if it's one big piece or four small ones).
In a small bowl, whisk together the remaining olive oil, vinegar, garlic, oregano, mustard, juice from remaining lemon, salt, and pepper.
Remove the salmon from the oven, allow it to cool, and chop it into small bite sized pieces. In a large bowl or on a platter, arrange the cucumber, green pepper, cherry tomatoes, feta cheese, red onions, olives, greens, and salmon.
Drizzle with the dressing and gently toss. Sprinkle some more salt, pepper, and oregano, a squeeze of lemon, and garnish with mint leaves.
This is the most AMAZING healthy & delish summer meal you guys.
Alternative option: BBQ your salmon...it's so freaking good.
