Salmon Salad
Posted Sun, 07/04/04
A few days ago Wilbert did some shopping at a local grocery known as Rosauers, picking up a few sale items as well as a leaflet displaying a seven-day meal planner. We usually don't frequent Rosauers, but my husband is always game for a new shopping experience in the hopes of coming away with a smaller grocery bill.
I love most fish, with sole and salmon topping the list. The following yummy recipe was included in the Rosauers flyer:
Mandarin Salmon Salad
16 oz. skinless salmon filets
1/2 tsp. black pepper
8 C spring greens salad mix
2 cans Mandarin oranges (8 oz. each); drained & rinsed
4 TBS roughly chopped walnuts
2 TBS Dijon mustard
2 TBS balsamic vinegar
Season the filets with black pepper. Broil, grill or pan-fry salmon until meat is firm to the touch and flakes easily with a fork (about four minutes on each side). Divide greens; cut filets into four pieces and place a piece on each plate of greens. Sprinkle with orange segments and walnuts. In a small bowl, mix together the mustard and vinegar; drizzle over each salad and serve.
The dish sounds light yet delicious. I think I'd rather cook the fish in my steamer, and maybe have a side of white rice or warmed French bread.
