November 5, 2021 | Stephanie Ouellette Ingredients: 2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil, divided 1.25 pounds skin-on salmon ½ teaspoon salt, divided ½ teaspoon ground pepper, divided 2 tablespoons red-wine vinegar 1 clove garlic, grated 2 cups mixed salad greens ½ cup chopped tomatoes 1 cup chopped roasted red bell peppers (from a 12-ounce jar), rinsed 2 cups cooked quinoa (see tip) 1 tablespoon sesame seeds (optional) Directions Heat 1 tablespoon of oil in a large nonstick or cast-iron skillet over medium-high heat. Pat salmon dry and sprinkle the flesh with 1/4 teaspoon each salt and pepper. Add to the pan, skin-side up, and cook until lightly browned 3 to 4 minutes. Turn and cook until it’s cooked through and flakes easily with a fork, 1 to 2 minutes more. Transfer to a plate. Meanwhile, whisk the remaining oil, 1/4 teaspoon each salt and pepper, vinegar, and garlic in a medium bowl. Combine salad greens, tomatoes, and peppers; toss with dressing. Divide salad onto four plates, top with ½ cup cooked quinoa and 4 oz salmon. Tip: Keep a package of frozen cooked quinoa on hand to add whole grains to dinner in a flash. Shelf-stable packets are a great choice, too, but tend to be higher in sodium, so check the label if that’s a concern for you.
